* One ''ComicStrip/CalvinAndHobbes'' has Calvin demanding a peanut butter sandwich for lunch, on white bread, crust off, cut in a specific way.

* In an early ''ComicStrip/{{Garfield}}'' comic, Jon's cousin Judy visits with her bratty daughter Tammy who proceeds to demand food by repeatedly yelling "Mommy!" then repeatedly yelling "I'm hungry!".

* In the ''ComicBook/{{Tintin}}'' book "Land of Black Gold", the Emir's son gets kidnapped but the kidnapper soon realizes what a bratty captive the little rascal is. At one point the boy demands ice cream and when he doesn't get his will, he derails their car.

* ''Fanfic/TheBoltChronicles'': After pushing Mittens into a cake, Bolt makes a peevish and ill-advised request for one of the title pastries in "The Cakes." The angry cat responds by dropping one on his head.

* One ''ComicStrip/CalvinAndHobbes'' has Calvin demanding a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for lunch, on white bread, crust off, cut in a specific way.

His father reminds him (Timmy) that he "kinda OD'd on the dino nuggies" last time the family had them. He also throws a similar tantrum when his dad refuses to cut the crusts off his PB&J.

* In ''Film/CasperTheFriendlyGhost'', Casper's mean uncle Stretch shouts, "Gimme my meal!".

* ''Manga/OnePiece'': During Brook's introduction to the crew, this gets mixed with HypocriticalHumor to contrast Brook's refined manner of speech and conduct with the fact that he also thoughtlessly rude. Brook speaks at length about how he is a gentleman and well practiced at waiting patiently for a meal... after which he immediately starts loudly chanting "Dinn~nner! Dinn~nner!"

* In the direct to video feature ''Lamb Chop in The Land of No Manners'' (a video predating ''Series/LambChopsPlayAlong''), Lamb Chop demands the bread at supper, the latest in a series of instances in which she used bad manners that day.

* ''WebVideo/CreamHeroes'' has a video entitled ''Please Save Me, This Guy is Worse than Lulu.'' It features Dodo playing this trope for all it's worth. Not only does his meow drown out all others, Claire worries she might start getting noise complaints due to how loud he's being. That's when he's not running around the counter top, crashing into TT, trying to grab Claire's hands while she's mixing and pushing other cats out of the way. And when Claire isn't being fast enough? He grabs a sachet of cat food she accidently dropped and runs off with it. Even after he's eaten, he tries to steal the spoon the food was mixed with for the purpose of licking and biting it.
