Blarggs, also named '''Munchers''',<ref>{{cite|title=''Nintendo Power'' Volume 28|page=16|date=September 1991|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|author=Tilden, Gail, et al.}}</ref>) are enemies in ''Super Mario World''. Blarggs are fairly rare, and they are encountered primarily in the [[Vanilla Dome]]. When [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] approach a Blargg on a [[Lava Lift|Skull Lift]], the eyes of the Blargg will be visible before they dip back into the lava, moments before lunging. [[Yoshi]] is capable of jumping on them and, with some difficulty, eating them. The player can also opt to [[Spin Jump]] if lacking a Yoshi, although this method only prevents one from taking damage if landing on a Blargg or its eyes. They are mainly seen in [[Vanilla Dome 3]], though they make their first appearance in [[Vanilla Dome 1]] and later reappear in [[Chocolate Secret]]. It is possible for [[Invincible Mario]] to defeat one in Vanilla Dome 1 before falling into the lava. [[Cape Mario|Caped Mario]] can also defeat it with a Body Press attack before falling into the lava. These methods reveal a glitched sprite.

In the source code of pre-release builds, Blarggs went through many design iterations of varying sizes, as both a dinosaur like in the final and as a shark.<ref>{{cite|url=x.com/GamingAlexandri/status/1286735053180018688|title=X post showing early SMW tiles|author=Gaming Alexandria|publisher=X|language=en|accessdate=July 25, 2020}}</ref>
