A few screen shots of the sprites in the game would be helpful. Did I miss any links in OP?
Great suggestion, I'll add an example!

Small error: the "Large foods" image section has steak but no fruit basket, while the list includes fruit basket but no steak.
Great article though!
Great eye to detail! Thank you: ill fix this when I get home :)

The food in Mario Kart World is very scrumptious looking https://www.mariowiki.com/Dash_Food
Maybe I'll do a follow up on this!

The article misses the "Super-spicy curry" item that appeared in Brawl (and maybe Air Ride?). I think that's also a billboard.
Oooh! I need to look into this... thanks for the tip.

> I've seen a few folks online remarking about the “JPEG” or “PNG”-like quality of the images
What do they mean by this?
Players that don't know the technical term "billboarding" might use this as a way to say that the images of the food are "flat" unlike the rest of the 3D modeled environment. Just a suspicion!

I've always thought this was inspired by the depiction of food in earlier arcade games like Bubble Bobble.
I would love to see a list of inspirations for keeping the food 2D even in a 3D environment! Pacman or Bubble Bobble seem like good places to start.
