    I remember this series. My biggest gripe is that even though chase goes on a whole journey to become a better chief. Even going to make a ramen so good he sold millions in one day. He basically kept using his first Fighting Foodon: Fried Ricer. I would've love seeing him come up with more complicated Fighters as the series progressed.

I don't see why he couldn't make a Foodon out of that meal.

    Imagine if this came out as a game today. Go out find ingredients, recipes, and cooking utensils. So instead of capturing the mons you go out to cook the dishes that you can choose to turn into Fighting Foodons. As you progress you learn more complicated dishes and eventually learn legendary five star meal recipes. Plus each Foodon description has the actual recipie so the player can cook the dish IRL. Story can be simple start out as a simple chief with dreams of making it big, while an entire empire depending on preservatives/additives are going out to concur the world.

      @@supercloudreed Exactly,. A reward and punishment system when cooking. If you cook the meal perfectly the Foodon comes out perfect. If you add to much of one ingredient, undercook it, or burn the dish it would greatly impact the stats or just ruin the dish. Later on when you become a better cook, you can improvise ingredients to previous recipes to give a boost.

    This show was a staple of my Saturday morning routine even with its brief run. I retained fragments as I grew up: the theme, the exaggerated cooking animations, Fried Ricer. I knew at one point there was a tournament held on a cruise ship that I misremembered as being an arc, but only took up one or two episodes. Talk about a missed opportunity to pad the show.

    I genuinely thought this show was a fever dream. Fried ricer shouting its name and the spaghetti one yelling “SPAGHETTABOUTIT!”

    This series was better then it should have been honestly. I can still get a fair bit of enjoyment from it even to day.

    I don't know why, but this unlocked a memory for me that's tangentially related at best, and something I think you might be interested in covering. Around the same time period as the Fox Box era of anime, there was Idaten Jump, and the best way I can describe it is BMX bikes with superpowers. The anime is considered to be lost media because only a handful of the episodes seem to have been preserved by third parties, and was never officially re-released by the parent companies anywhere.

    This was a fun if forgettable series. Definitely unique in the world building but also never really fleshed out. Like some foodons are perpetually there like that cat that travels with the heroes but others had to be continually cooked and summoned.

    This was my favorite cartoon i always recorded in VHS to rewatch it again, i think i still have those VHS somewhere unless i recorded something else on top, i remember i made my own foodons and drew some comics and made a card game with my brother with foodons from the shows and the ones we invented
    Good times now i wanna cry from the nostalgia

    Man I know I’m late to the party but this show seriously needs a reboot with the surge in chef culture since the shows debut and the popularity of food based anime. A revisit to this universe would be a banger.

    I still sing the fighting foodons theme song to myself occasionally while cooking. It took up such a small part of my childhood, but damnit if I can't remember parts of it TO THE T. Purple pepper power up turtle episode was still one of my favorites... That and King Glutton and his fabulous makeup

    I remember watching the show but I can only remember one episode off the top of my head, it was when Chase had to save his sister and friend when they went evil. the only other thing I remember is an art contest where you could summit your own foodon and they might show it during the commercials, I still recal my foodon it was called Strawberry Short Drake, and my brother did one as well called Spidgettie. although we never got the chance to see if our creations made the cut since we were on vacation during the event and wasn't able to watch. it was still fun to watch and I still remeber the darn intro even after all this time.

    Dude! This show was a childhood staple for me! Even my mom loved to watch it and make up her own foodon! And that theme... that theme has no right to be that good lol
    I think Fruit Turtle was my favorite foodon too
