Dash Food is the name of various food items that can be consumed in Mario Kart World. Dash Food is obtained by picking up golden fast food bags at Yoshi's drive-throughs and food trucks. When consumed, Dash Food gives the player a small boost, which is dependent on the type of food, and changes the racer's outfit if the racer is not already wearing the outfit. Outfit changes caused by this item unlock costumes for the character the player was controlling if the player did not already unlock it. Outfits the player obtains are based on the food item that was consumed, and food items obtained are based on courses or surrounding routes the Dash Food was obtained from. Some Dash Foods do not give a character an outfit, instead reverting them back to their normal appearance if they are in an outfit while consuming it. Baby Peach, Baby Daisy, and Baby Rosalina always get the same outfits as each other from a Dash Food, as do Toad and Toadette (with Burger Bud and Soft Server as well as Engineer and Conductor being treated as equivalents).
There are 60 kinds of Dash Food, which are officially divided into 18 groups. There are generally three variants within a group, which become increasingly elaborate and provide a better boost when consumed. All food within the same group provides the same outfit. The sushi group contains four items, with the last item being a trio of sushi plates that acts akin to Triple Dash Mushrooms. The takoyaki, candy apple, Cheep Cheep taiyaki, popcorn, and lunchbox are standalone foods that do not belong to any group; however, the first three provide the same outfits as the sushi group.
When selecting a vehicle, the player can disable the Dash Food transforming the character's costumes. Unlike a Mushroom, Dash Food cannot be used to dodge a Spiny Shell.
List of food[edit]
Note: If a character is not listed in the outfits column, that means they do not receive an outfit from the Dash Food type. If they are wearing an outfit when consuming its respective Dash Food, they are instead reverted back to their default appearance.
