Basic Trope: Food being used as a projectile weapon.
- Straight: Ernest uses a toaster to shoot toast at his enemies.
- Exaggerated: Ernest can make entire three-course meals to throw at his enemies.
- Downplayed:
- Ernest uses no longer edible food, such as expired or burnt food, as a weapon.
- Ernest uses the non-edible parts of food (e.g. shells, cores) as projectiles.
- Justified:
- Ernest is a Chef of Iron.
- Ernest is attacked, but all he has nearby is food, so he has to use an Improvised Weapon.
- Inverted: Ernest eats projectile weapons, such as bullets.
- Subverted: ???
- Double Subverted: ???
- Parodied: ???
- Zig-Zagged: ???
- Averted: Food isn't used as a projectile weapon.
- Enforced:
- Ernest is meant to be a Chef of Iron fighter, and the creators want him to have more interesting weapon choices beyond cooking utensils.
- The No Budget show only had food props at hand.
- Lampshaded: ???
- Invoked: ???
- Exploited: ???
- Defied: ???
- Discussed: "Is this a battlefield or a Food Fight?"
- Conversed: "This character shoots toast at his enemies! Talk about an Improbable Weapon User."
