'''Munchers''' are a [[species]] of immobile [[Nipper Plant]]s that grow out of the ground instead of from spores, possibly meaning that they are closer relatives of the [[Piranha Plant]] than the Nipper Plant. They first appeared in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and later appeared in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. Unlike their white cousins, Muncher Plants come in either red, blue, or black, depending on the location. They are invulnerable. | '''Munchers''' are a [[species]] of immobile [[Nipper Plant]]s that grow out of the ground instead of from spores, possibly meaning that they are closer relatives of the [[Piranha Plant]] than the Nipper Plant.

Acting much like spikes would, touching a Muncher results in instant death. However, both the [[Kuribo's Shoe]] and any [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] can walk on them without harm. In a couple levels, they spring from thin pipes. The only way to cross a patch of Munchers is by acquiring a [[Starman]] or by carefully [[Jump]]ing to the gaps between Muncher patches. | Acting much like spikes would, touching a Muncher results in instant death.

Munchers can also become frozen. Frozen Munchers can be identified by the black ice block in which they are encased (in contrast to yellow ice blocks, which hold [[coins]]). They are harmless when frozen, but if one thaws a Muncher out with a [[fireball]], the Muncher will become active again. If [[Mario]] hits a [[P-Switch]], then thaws a frozen Muncher in an ice block, the Muncher will turn into a coin. | Munchers can also become frozen.
