Cook



"This cake-chucking meanie isn't stingy with food!"

- Wario

Cooks are enemies featured in Wario Land II and Wario Land 3. They are small, pink moles in chef's attire who induce the Fat Wario status.

Cooks first appear in Wario Land II. Here they walk around certain levels (usually indoors), carrying pieces of cake on long spoons. If Wario treads too near to Cook, it will jump and toss its cake. If Wario touches this confection, he will be forced to eat it and become Fat Wario, which can be either an obstacle or a necessity for level completion depending on the situation.

As aforementioned, Cooks return in Wario Land 3, albeit redesigned to wear pants in favor of toques and appear overall grouchier. They also throw doughnuts rather than cake, but otherwise behave identically. They shared their status as a source of the Fat Wario form with Applebies in Wario Land 3, and both enemies were replaced by Apple Monkeys by Wario Land 4.

Trivia

 * The design of Cooks' cakes -frosting-covered and triangular with a strawberry on top- was seemingly reused for the Cake item of Paper Mario.


 * They resemble Pink colored Monty Mole.
