** Peter's love of Aunt May's wheatcakes dates back to his first appearance in ''ComicBook/AmazingFantasyNumber15''. He's also fond of normal flapjacks, as well as pizza. And of course, [[BigApplesauce New York hot dogs]].

* ''ComicBook/{{X 23}}'': Very subtly done with Laura Kinney, who doesn't have one particular favorite food, but favors ''anything'' that's spicy. When questioned on this preference by Gambit, she reveals it overlaps significantly with ComfortFood: She was allowed only very bland fare by the Facility, so eating spicy foods is a way to distance herself from her DarkAndTroubledPast.

** Tony Stark seems to have a thing for cheeseburgers. When freed from captivity by terrorists in ''Film/IronMan1'', he demands Happy Hogan bring him to a press conference to announce he would no longer make weapons... and to get him a cheeseburger ("Cheeseburger first."). [[spoiler:After Tony's funeral in ''Film/AvengersEndgame'', Happy is seen comforting his young daughter... who asks if they can get cheeseburgers together.]]
** Yelena Belova apparently really loves macaroni and cheese. The [[AMinorKidroduction opening flashback]] of ''Film/BlackWidow2021'' sees her asking her adoptive mother to make it for dinner. Many years later the now-adult Yelena makes the meal for herself in ''Series/Hawkeye2021'' after breaking into Kate Bishop's apartment and getting bored waiting for her to come home.

* ''ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk'': In UsefulNotes/{{the Bronze Age|OfComicBooks}}, the Hulk went through a phase (mostly when he was hanging out with ComicBook/TheDefenders) where he was obsessed with ''beans.'' Presumably, this was in memory of Crackajack Jackson, a homeless man who had befriended the Hulk and been very kind to him before getting killed by his own son (long story). As a homeless man, all he had had to offer the Hulk to eat were cans of beans, which the Hulk became very fond of.

In the hopes of reducing his body count during the times in which he is not so villainous ([[{{Bowdlerise}} and when the comics needed to appease those concerned that he was too violent for children]]), he has substituted brains for chocolate, thanks to the sweet treat being a rich source of phenylethylamine, second only to brains.

* ''Series/AgentsOfSHIELD'': In "The Hub", when Fitz prepares for his first field assignment, Simmons makes him his favorite sandwich; prosciutto and buffalo mozzarella with a hint of pesto aioli. He doesn't get to eat it (Ward threw it to some wolves) but at the end of the episode he assures her it was delicious.
* ''Series/Daredevil2015'': Wilson Fisk has two signature foods.
** His favorite dessert is zuppa inglese, an Italian desert similar to trifle. His mother used to make it when he was a child, and he occasionally jokes that his fondness for it is the source of his weight.
** For breakfast, his MorningRoutine involves making an omelet. In his intro scene in Season 3, we see Fisk continues this even in prison, although the results are clearly not as spectacular as they were in his first penthouse. Fortunately, once his penthouse in the Presidential Hotel is outfitted with all his old possessions, Fisk is able to make his quality omelets once more, in time for Vanessa's return and then their wedding.
