Strawberry Tofu (いちごとうふ Strawberry Tofu), rendered as berry Tofu[sic] in the inventory in EarthBound Beginnings due to the character limit, and named Trout yogurt in EarthBound, is a recurring item in the EarthBound series that is often used during certain events. This food item is often anticipated by characters in the series as it is regarded as a popular dessert in big cities.

Usage

As a recovery item

Strawberry Tofu in the first two games heals a very low amount of HP. In EarthBound Beginnings will heal 10 HP when consumed, while in EarthBound the Trout yogurt heals 30 HP when consumed.

In Mother 3 it instead it recovers much more HP compared to the previous games, about 120 HP, making it a decent recovery item.

Other uses

In EarthBound Beginnings

In EarthBound Beginnings its secondary use is to be given to AbleBaker and a doctor, who all live on an island which only can be reached via the Look-Out Tower near Ellay, as they are interested in tasting it. If given to Baker, he will thank Ninten by giving him Swear Words; if given to Able, he will share information about a fantastic robot that lies at the bottom of a lake near the summit of Mt. Itoi; and if given to the doctor, he will give Ninten Words of Love.

A boy in the leftmost room on the second floor of Twinkle Elementary School mentions that Strawberry Tofu is popular in big cities and that he would like to taste some. However, nothing will happen if the player tries to give him any.

In EarthBound

Trout yogurt's indirect secondary use in EarthBound allows access to the Monotoli Building. Monotoli's maid Electra is very desperate for Trout yogurt, and requests for the Yogurt dispenser needed to make it. Though she is not directly given Trout yogurt, giving the machine which makes it allows her to grant Ness and Jeff permission to enter the higher floors of the Monotoli Building. She will also give them one Trout yogurt as thanks.

Trivia

  • Early artworks of Strawberry Tofu depicted it as a block of tofu with strawberry pieces in it. In Mother 3, however, it is depicted as a pink block of tofu implying it to simply be strawberry flavored instead.
