Food is the thirty-third episode (first part of the seventeenth episode) of Season 1 of The Mr. Men Show.

A rollerskating Mr. Bump and Little Miss Whoops give new meaning to meals on wheels and Mr. Lazy builds a reputation as the best worker at Mr. Noisy's Grill.

Mr. Quiet's Plot: Mr. Quiet visits a beanburger restaurant for a glass of water, but his quiet voice causes trouble in the kitchen.
Mr. Nervous' Plot: While at a salad bar with Little Miss Naughty, Mr. Nervous has a daydream where he encounters a swamp monster while riding in a canoe.
Mr. Persnickety, Mr. Happy, Mr. Messy, Mr. Bump and Little Miss Whoops' Plot: Mr. Persnickety, Mr. Happy and Mr. Messy go to the drive-thru at the Dillydale Bean Burger. Their waiters (Mr. Bump and Little Miss Whoops) make a mess of Mr. Persnickety's car, much to his disgust.
Mr. Grumpy, Mr. Small and Mr. Nosey's Plot (UK deleted scene): Mr. Nosey and Mr. Small butt in on Mr. Grumpy, who is trying to get a liverwurst sandwich from a vending machine.
Mr. Lazy and Mr. Noisy's Plot: Mr. Lazy gets a job at Mr. Noisy's Nut Patty Restaurant. When Mr. Noisy claims the job is "so simple, a monkey could do it", Mr. Lazy takes the saying literally and gets himself a monkey to do his job.

Characters use different food for the juicer.

Mr. Messy messily juices oranges.
Mr. Strong juices a watermelon and makes a giant mess in the room.
Mr. Small and Mr. Nosey juice a single grape, not getting much juice from it, then juicing more grapes afterwards in the traditional manner; squashing them with their feet.
Miss Scary hatches a mini version of herself. (US dub only)

'Mr. Nervous... Isn't there anything at the salad bar that you like?'

— Little Miss Naughty after Mr. Nervous trying to get what he wants at the salad bar

'It's so simple a monkey could do it.'

— Mr. Lazy

It is shown here that radishes give Mr. Nervous abdominal pain.
Mr. Small likes liverwurst sandwiches. (also hinted in Beach)
The three smoothies offered at Mr. Bounce's Bean Burger are raspberry, blueberry and spinach.
This marks the only time where Little Miss Naughty wakes up Mr. Nervous from his daydream.
This is the second time Miss Scary creates a mini version of herself (with the orange mask on) which scares the original away (in the deleted bumper). The first time was in Inventions.
This is the second time Mr. Nervous' daydream is the beginning of a longer plot. The first was in Lake.

In the UK version, nut patties are called nut cutlets.
Miss Naughty calls her plastic fly a "fly" rather than simply a "bug".
In Mr. Fussy, Mr. Happy, and Mr. Messy's plot, when Mr. Happy said that they should probably get some frozen yogurt to go with some dessert, Mr. Fussy is crying. In the UK, he isn't.
In the UK dub, Mr. Nervous saying that radishes give him "terrible gas" is changed to him saying that radishes give him "terrible tummy ache".
After Mr. Lazy leaves, Mr. Noisy says "Why is it so hard to find good help these days?" in the US version, but in the UK version, he says "Who will I get to flip nut cutlets now?"

When Mr. Nervous runs off and drops his plate with beansprouts, in the first shot they are there. In the next shot when Mr. Tickle tickles Miss Naughty, they are not on the plate anymore.
When Mr. Fussy takes off the banana peel off of the head restraint, it changes to some loose hair in the next shot.
Mr. Happy says, "Here comes our waiters", but Little Miss Whoops is female, so she should have been called a waitress.
