Don't you think it's really fucked up that Sonic the Hedgehog's favourite food is chilli dogs?

Wehl ackshually the chili dog thing started in one of the western cartoons a few years later, so it's kinda unrelated to his origin.
That guy's a fucking stooge of the royal family. Imperialist scum. He has no beliefs to contradict.
...you uh, you new on the internet? Because uh, the answer is alot, it's why adventure era stuff is popular
According to the sonic lore god no one has worked with gun ever. Apparently it's all coincidence according to iizuka.
On that same token I wonder if anyone ever asked iizuka about the dogs. When they asked him about the moon and why after sa2 it seemed whole, he simply said "it turned around". I'm kinda curious what weird simply answer he would give
Is there any part of this franchise that isn't weird as hell, jeez
Obviously it's like Assassination classroom where after a while it collapsed in on itself and became a sphere again
One of Mario's best friends (well, I assume they're friends) is a mushroom. Princess Peach might be one too for all I know. And he flattens bad ones and eats others to gain super powers and gain the ability to resurrect himself. And the mushrooms that he eats have eyes.
Is Sonic meant to be taken seriously? It's a blue, cartoon hedgehog who runs really fast. You have to be making a joke, right?
And you break apart the ones who have been turned into bricks:
Though I guess they are okay because they reward you when you do so:
But Peach was saved in SMB1 and reversed the spell... So why are there still bricks that give you power ups?
Get your shit together Nintendo!
I should clarify that this is (mostly) from the outside looking in, having really only played Sonic Mania, but I've literally never heard anyone praising the story in these games. But hey, you do you.
They actually made it canon in the games? Eww. That Sonic cartoon needs to be completely forgotten.
Where and how was it ever established that Sonic even eats chili dogs, let alone that they're his favorite food?
And what's with the implication that you have to be vegan to care about animal conversation and/or other environmental issues?
Lastly, you do know hedgehogs are carnivorous, right?

Fake news

There are details that sonic team likes that they make canon every once in a while. For example, Sonic X introduced the idea of shadow having inhibitor rings and he's actually holding back everytime he fights. They like that idea and they took it. They keep extra media its own thing, but every once in a while they like something and snatch it. Like..stick's whole character.
Huh, was assasination classroom any good. That was a jump manga I just missed
The stories is weird fun goofy stuff that takes itself seriously. And that's where the fun and the coolness comes in. There's been a cry for that after the recent direction of self deprivation + not actually improving the games quality to justify the self deprivation sort of wore off. Not judging you or nothing.
Its why the sonic comics do so well, people want to see these intersting characters be in intersting stories. The characters being more...characters is actually seperates sonic apart from a lot of other platfomer characters. And it sucks with that and various other things the sonic franchise has not been able to realize the power they have.
Chili dogs are delicious and Sonic has good taste. I can't imagine why eating chili dogs would make him an anti-environmentalist.
I sure hope this isn't the newest "what weak reason can we drum up to criticize Sonic now" thing. Let's just be a little less Era about it.

They mostly eat bugs and similar, sometimes frogs, bird eggs or baby birds.
you got a very good point op. there's a cognitive dissonance to being a caretaker of wildlife and a lifestyle that enables the death and destruction of countless animals and it's a crazy coincidence that the mascot who specializes in rescuing animals (and exclusively hurting robots) would also be the only mascot who's a big meat eater.
actually that makes him the ideal mascot of american nihilistic leftism. indeed sonic, there's no such thing as ethical consumption under capitalism.

More fucked that Mario eats mushrooms then pals around with Toad, Princess Peach (formerly Princess Toadstool) and the rest like it's nothing. He just ate mini-me versions of Toad, ffs! How do we not know that Mario isn't cannibalising and having a feast of Toads with Luigi and Wario when the rest are not looking?
Peach and the Toads eat mushrooms in the games they are playable. That is, if we assume power ups are eaten and not just absorbed.
Yeah, Mario converted them to his cause for mass genocide. Just think, those little mushrooms are trying to get away from them and still lose their lives, whilst Mario and the rest gains theirs. It's a dog eat dog world out there!
