Also known as the Midnight Fridge Raid—which may induce Fridge Logic, Fridge Brilliance, or Fridge Horror. A common occurrence in American sitcoms and other comedy shows is to have some character get up in the middle of the night in order to have a snack. This may be due to the character being a Big Eater, or being on a diet and attempting to cheat on it without anyone noticing. Or perhaps they're sleepwalking, and they will wake up in front of the fridge and be surprised. In a Lonely Bachelor Pad, the midnight snack plan may go poorly due the the person having a bare, nearly empty fridge or all it has in it is beer bottles. Sometimes two or more people will have the same idea and bump into each other. May either be a plot point or a Running Gag. |

It's mentioned in the books (specifically, Mort) that it is a universal law that any pantry raided furtively in the middle of the night will inevitably contain half a jar of mayonnaise and an elderly tomato, regardless of its normal daytime contents. | |

In the World War II comedy film La Grande Vadrouille, Stanislas Lefort, passing as the husband of the Hôtel du Globe's manager, gets hungry in the middle of the night and goes to the kitchen of the hotel, the hotel being requisitionned by a bunch of German officers (the film is set during the Occupation time). After filling a tray, he gets spotted by Major Achbach's aide, who he lied to about there being no more to eat, and the aide snatches the tray from him, thanking him for keeping that food for the Major. | |

One The Far Side: One strip has a couple coming downstairs to discover to their relief the noises they had been hearing are just "Kevin" engaging in this, Kevin being a nine-foot-tall horned monster. Another strip has a man's own stomach thwarting his dieting attempts by sprouting legs and going on midnight fridge raids. One strip features a duck wandering into the kitchen to get a midnight snack, and getting ambushed by a hunter in a duck blind. |

On at least two occasions in the Ranma ½ manga, when Ranma has been depriving himself of food for some training in a new technique, soon after falling asleep he makes a beeline toward the fridge while Sleepwalking. It seems his stomach has a stronger will than his mind. | |

Donald Duck was once found of these while sleepwalking and every morning he believed the food was eaten by his nephews and wouldn't listen to them. After a failed attempt to wake him up during a raid, they sought for medical help. Donald followed them to the doctor and told them his side of the facts. The doctor then suggested him to pull a prank to make them unable to deny their fridge-raiding. Pour on the food a drug that made the users' faces green. When it was Donald and not the nephews who had a green face, Donald finally realized he was the one eating the food. | |

Warbreaker: After Siri gets closer to her husband Susebron the God King, they start having dinner in bed at around midnight. The first time they do this, a large amount of food arrives in minutes. Siri is shocked to realize that the palace chefs had prepared the food ahead of time. Susebron has never requested dinner at this hour before, which means that they've been constantly preparing full-course meals for decades, just in case he happens to get peckish at any random time. | |

In Right Ho, Jeeves, the gourmand Tuppy Glossop has been fighting with his vegetarian fiancée Angela. Bertie advises him to pretend not to be hungry at dinner, so Angela will think he is pining over her—and then nip down to the kitchen while everyone's asleep and have some steak-and-kidney pie. Unfortunately, though, what with one thing and another the entire household ends up coming down to the kitchen at midnight. Angela uses the midnight snack as even further evidence of Tuppy's gluttony, and he doesn't even get time to eat it. | |

Career Opportunities: For some reason, the film keeps cutting back to the main character's father as he eats an increasingly bizarre midnight snack over the course of the night, such as dipping a cold chicken leg into peanut butter.

In the "Suds" episode of SpongeBob SquarePants, SpongeBob is unable to sleep, so he decides to treat himself with a seanut butter and jellyfish jelly sandwich, allegedly the best hypnotic in the sea. He takes one bite, then falls like a brick. Unfortunately, he left the fridge door open, and it turns his house into a house-cicle and the freezing temperatures gave him suds. | |

In an episode of Ed, Edd n Eddy big Ed sleepwalks while eating his way through the entire cul-de-sac. One episode starts with the aftermath of another midnight sleepwalk snack, with the Kankers waking up in the middle of the night to find that someone ransacked their kitchen and, much to their horror, took their prized ship-in-a-bottle with them and the Kankers swear to hunt them down. It then cuts to later that morning, with Eddy and Edd having to retrieve a sleeping Ed from Kevin's now empty fridge, only to find said ship-in-a-bottle stuck to his finger. |

In the second season of Sailor Moon, Luna catches Usagi sitting in front of the open fridge in the middle of the night. She has half the contents on the floor around her and is binge eating straight from the containers. The entire scene was due to her break up with Mamoru. | |

You'll find that Cece is covertly munching on the local carrots grown around Hateno; it demonstrates how Cece is still secretly fond of the produce of her farming hometown despite her apparent desire to turn the village into more of a fashion center. | |
