'''Munchers''' are a near-invincible [[List of species|species]] of [[Piranha Plant]]. Unlike [[Nipper Plant]]s, Munchers are usually colored black and are immobile. Even a [[Super Star]] cannot defeat a Muncher, but it can prevent it from hurting [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]]. Only a [[P Switch|Switch Block]] (in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''), a [[POW Block]], a [[Spiny Shell (red)|Spiny Shell]], or a large [[Kuribo's Shoe]] (all in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'') can defeat a Muncher.

Munchers first appear in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and are first encountered in [[World 5-3 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 5-3]] where they appear in large numbers. [[World 6-10]] features frozen Munchers, which can be identified by the black [[Ice Block]] in which they are encased. As [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] warns to Mario in her letter leading into the world, they are harmless when frozen and act like platforms, but if the player uses a [[fireball]], the Muncher will become active again. If [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] hits a [[P-Switch]], all regular Munchers will briefly turn into [[coin]]s; if Mario or Luigi tail whips one, the Muncher will become an [[Empty Block]] (except in the GBA version, where they are unaffected). If the player has [[Goomba's Shoe]], they can walk along them without taking damage.
