They are introduced in ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. The most commonly recurring vegetable is the [[turnip]], which has made several appearances throughout the ''Super Mario'' franchise following ''Super Mario Bros. 2''.

Vegetables (also called '''Large Vegetables'''<ref>Stratton, Bryan. ''Super Mario Advance'' Prima's Official Strategy Guide. Page 11.</ref>) are first found in [[Subcon]] in ''Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic'' and ''Super Mario Bros. 2''. They can be plucked with {{button|nes|B}} and thrown at enemies. '''Unripened vegetables'''<ref name=NES/><ref>''Super Mario Bros. 2'' Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console electronic manual (British English). Tab 10: "Items".</ref> (also called '''Sprouts''',<ref name=NP/><ref name=NPG/> '''Tiny Vegetables''',<ref name=SNES/> or '''Small Vegetables'''<ref name=Advance/>) are smaller than the ripe ones but are just as effective when throwing. Almost all the red [[grass]] in the game is a vegetable when plucked. Vegetables can appear as [[turnip]]s, onions, beets, radishes, and other root vegetables. If four large ones are picked up in the same stage, picking up what is supposed to be the fifth one will reveal a [[Stop Watch]].

Vegetables in ''[[Super Mario Advance]]'' function similarly as in the original game. There are also large turnips called '''Giant Vegetables'''<ref name=Advance/><ref name=Prima>Stratton, Bryan. ''Super Mario Advance'' Prima's Official Strategy Guide. Page 66. "''Pluck the plant on the platform for a Giant Vegetable, jump up onto the next platform to the right, and hit all five Ninjis with the Huge Vegetable, snagging a 1UP and a Heart.''"</ref> or '''Huge Vegetables''',<ref name=Prima/> which take longer to pull out. Unlike their normal-sized counterparts, Giant Vegetables can hit more enemies in succession, due to their bigger size.

In ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', scanning the [[Blue Green Switch]] will activate [[grass|grass patches]] with vegetables below them in the main game. They also appear by default in several [[World-e]] levels, namely [[Vegetable Volley]], [[The ol' Switcheroo]], [[A Sky-High Adventure]], [[Ice Cubed]], [[Ground Work]] and [[Treacherous Halls]]. Note that in this game, only turnips appear, in both their unripe and ripe forms, as well as the giant turnip that was introduced in ''Super Mario Advance''. In this game, vegetables can defeat certain enemies like [[Dry Bones]] and [[Chain Chomps]] instantly, but the player will sink in water if holding one, requiring to be thrown away in order to swim.
