Mario seems to have a fixation with food. This is most notably seen in the [[DiC Entertainment]] cartoons, where Mario is almost constantly hungry and fascinated with Italian food (mostly pizza and pasta), typically wanting to stop Bowser's latest scheme simply so he can eat and going to nearly any length to do so. In fact, in the ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' episode "[[Koopenstein]]," when Princess Peach asked him if he ever thought about anything besides food, Mario, with pure honesty, replied, "What else is there?" As in ''Super Mario 64'' and its remake, the original reason Mario came to the castle is that Peach was baking him a [[cake]], which becomes a recurring trend in future games, such as ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' and ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', although Mario, as well as his friends, has also fallen for false invitations to a big feast, shown in ''Mario Party DS''. Mario also dreams of pasta when he falls asleep in ''Super Mario 64'', in ''Super Mario Odyssey'', and in the [[Game Over]] screen of ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong''. In the opening of ''Super Mario Sunshine'', Mario is apparently daydreaming about seafood. In ''Fortune Street'', he offers Yoshi to help by finding Yoshi's cookies but before playfully saying, "Just give me a second to brush these cookie crumbs out of my mustache!" Quite a few characters in other games also advised Mario to refrain from eating much. For instance, when Mario holds on to [[Hoot]] for too long, Hoot may complain about Mario's eating habits before getting exhausted and letting him go. Additionally, the [[Star Temple gate]] from ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'', while praising Mario for his pure heart, has criticized his diet, advising him to limit the Alfredo sauce and carbonara in tandem with more exercising.

|text=Mario has occasionally shown aggressive or vulgar tendencies throughout his appearances, albeit in a lighthearted and comic-relief manner; a notable exception is in ''[[Super Mario Momotarō]]'', when Mario is shown holding a gun and aiming at Bowser, albeit to intimidate him. In ''Super Mario-kun'', Mario frequently scolds or teases his friends for failing or otherwise making simple gags. Like the other characters in ''Super Mario-kun'', Mario sometimes engages in crude behavior, such as farting to taunt his opponents or urinating on Yoshi. He has also cross-dressed on several occasions. Both the title and the art style of the manga depict Mario with a childish personality. "Kun" is a generally masculine Japanese honorific for juniors such as boys or teenagers.
In a virtual magazine for the Japan-exclusive [[Satellaview]], his vulgar and aggressive tendencies are exaggerated for the purpose of adult-oriented humor. Mario is shown smoking a cigarette and abusing his friends and love interest; he abuses Toad in particular often due to the latter's own perverse behavior in the magazine (or else for no reason at all), stomps on both Toad and Peach repeatedly for having oral sex behind Mario's back, and kills the former character with a gun.
