They are introduced in ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. The most commonly recurring vegetable in the franchise is the [[turnip]], which has made several appearances following ''Super Mario Bros. 2''.

Vegetables (also called '''Large Vegetables'''<ref>{{cite|author=Stratton, Bryan|title=''Super Mario Advance'' Prima's Official Strategy Guide|page=11|date=June 7, 2001|isbn=0-7615-3633-7|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|language=en-us}}</ref>) are first found in [[Subcon]] in ''Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic'' and ''Super Mario Bros. 2''. They can be plucked with {{button|nes|B}} and thrown at enemies. '''Unripened vegetables'''<ref name=NES/><ref>{{cite|title=''Super Mario Bros. 2'' Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console electronic manual|publisher=Nintendo|language=en-gb|page=10}}</ref> (also called '''Sprouts''',<ref name=NP/><ref name=NPG/> '''Tiny Vegetables''',<ref name=SNES/> or '''Small Vegetables'''<ref name=Advance/>) are smaller than the ripe ones but are just as effective when throwing. Almost all the red [[grass]] in the game is a vegetable when plucked. Vegetables can appear as [[turnip]]s (in Worlds 1, 3, and 5, the grass worlds), pumpkins / bell peppers (in Worlds 2 and 6, the desert worlds), beets (in World 4, the ice world), parsnips (in World 7, the cloud world), tomatoes and onions (in World 7-2, from the Dream Machine), and radishes (in World 7; ''Doki Doki Panic'' only). If four large ones are picked up in the same stage, picking up what is supposed to be the fifth one will reveal a [[Stop Watch]]. In the remakes, the pumpkin/bell-pepper-like vegetables are green instead of red, and have replaced the tomatoes in World 7-2. Additionally, the ''[[Super Mario Advance]]'' remake adds large turnips called [[Giant Vegetable]]s, which take longer to pull out and can hit more enemies in succession.

In ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', scanning the [[Blue Green Switch]] will activate [[grass|grass patches]] with vegetables below them in the main game. They also appear by default in several [[World-e]] levels, namely [[Vegetable Volley]], [[The ol' Switcheroo]], [[A Sky-High Adventure]], [[Ice Cubed]], [[Ground Work]] and [[Treacherous Halls]]. Note that in this game, only turnips appear, in both their unripe and ripe forms, as well as the giant turnip that was introduced in ''Super Mario Advance''. In this game, vegetables can defeat certain enemies like [[Dry Bones]] and [[Chain Chomps]] instantly, but the player will only float on water if holding one, requiring it to be thrown away in order to swim.

Vegetables appear in some episodes of ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' Mario and Luigi use them in various episodes to defeat their enemies, the [[Bowser's Minions|Koopa Pack]] and [[Bowser|King Koopa]] like in ''Super Mario Bros. 2''. The vegetable-throwing sound from ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' is also commonly used in the show even for things such as the firing of a [[Bullet Bill]] and the throwing of a [[fireball]].
