In a delightful departure from the usual news cycle of tariffs and Nintendo Switch 2 pricing, IGN had the chance to dive into the whimsical world of Mario Kart World at a Nintendo event in New York this week. Amidst the excitement, one particular revelation has captured the hearts and imaginations of fans worldwide: the new Cow character from Moo Moo Meadows can indeed indulge in a variety of foods, including burgers and steak.
For those unfamiliar with the buzz, Mario Kart World recently introduced the Moo Moo Meadows Cow as a playable racer, sparking a wave of memes and fanart across the internet. This once-background character has now taken center stage, much to the delight of the Mario Kart community.
However, the announcement also raised an intriguing question among fans. In the Nintendo Direct 2 trailer, Mario was seen enjoying a burger. Given that burgers are typically made from beef, and considering Cow's origins, fans were curious: would Cow partake in beef consumption?
At the Nintendo preview event, IGN confirmed that Cow can indeed eat a range of food items available at Yoshi's diner locations throughout the game's courses. These diners operate like drive-thrus, allowing racers to grab take-out bags filled with various foods such as burgers, steak kebabs, pizza, and donuts. And yes, Cow can consume them all.

During the event, IGN observed Cow enjoying a burger among other items. While other racers undergo costume changes upon consuming these foods, Cow appears unaffected. This raises questions about whether she's eating for pleasure, or if there's an undisclosed power-up linked to her food consumption. Could these be veggie burgers or plant-based kebabs?
IGN reached out to Nintendo for clarification but has yet to receive a response. It's likely due to their busy schedule at the New York event, rather than the peculiar nature of the inquiry.
