A character enters what should be a serious situation for them and yet seems completely bored with the events. Instead of giving the occasion his full attention, they seem more invested in the snack they happen to be eating. Apples, potato chips, or any other food that's particularly noisy are popular for this since the obnoxiously loud crunching can drown out what's going on around the eater. Apples and other fruit carry an additional "eff-you" quality in that, well, you can't be admonished for eating something healthy, can you? Alternately, apples are often associated with the Book of Genesis, for times when you want to draw parallels between a less virtuous character and Satan. Compare Autopsy Snack Time, Fruit of the Loon, Obsessed with Food, Inappropriate Hunger, Delicious Distraction, Primp of Contempt (where an appearance check shows that a character is bored), Long Speech Tea Time (where an audience is bored), Pass the Popcorn (where they're entertained by someone else's troubles), and Impromptu Campfire Cookout. Often overlaps with Enemy Eats Your Lunch. Contrast They Wasted a Perfectly Good Sandwich, where a mealtime conversation is so interesting the food goes completely untouched. |

In the Sherlock episode "A Scandal in Belgravia", a rather tense scene has just played out at Baker Street (Mrs. Hudson was attacked by CIA agents - Sherlock took care of them). Mrs. Hudson is rather upset, John is confused, concerned, and trying to comfort her, and Sherlock...is eating a mince pie he got out of Mrs. Hudson's refrigerator. | |

Done intentionally in Night Watch. Vimes knows a crowd of angry civilians is heading toward the Watch house, with the intent of rioting, so he does the logical thing; he opens the doors, unshutters the windows, and sits out on the stoop with a cigar in one hand and a mug of cocoa in the other. When the demonstrators arrive, instead of finding the place defiantly preparing for a siege, it is instead open and welcoming, which defuses the tension. One drunken man still tries to have a go at Vimes by breaking a bottle for use as a weapon but winds up with a fist full of shards. This is where Vimes' choice of activity comes in handy; the entire crowd saw him with both hands full when this happened, so no one can claim he laid a finger on the man. | |

An oversight in 7 Days a Skeptic, the second game of the Chzo Mythos allows you to do this: if on the first day you get an English breakfast but don't use it, you can wait until the chase in the final day, go to the cafeteria and use it there. Even with a supernatural killer with a machete in the same room, your character will calmly sit down, eat all his food, and even comment on how disgusting it was. | |

An eighth season episode of Cheers saw Woody resolve to elope with his girlfriend Kelly, and Sam comes along to help him get into Kelly's bedroom window. Sam climbs the ladder first, looking for Kelly's room, and later comes back down to Woody, munching away from a bag of popcorn that he obtained from a chambermaid. Woody is aghast, as he's there to make a life-changing proposal, but when Sam mentions it's cheddar flavored, Woody says "Oooh, gimmie!" | |

In Mission Of Honor, when Admiral Crandall arrives in Spindle, she waits for a while before opening communications, intending to make the Manticorans sweat. When she does hail them, instead of the terrified Manticoran officer she expects, she gets Gregor O'Shaughnessey, idly reading a novel at his station, not even noticing the Admiral at first. It's a wonder that Crandall doesn't suffer an apoplectic fit. And, since she'd decided to insult the Manties by parking her ships far enough out that it takes eighteen minutes for a message to get to Spindle and back, he returns the insult by resuming reading his book between exchanges. | |

Deconstructed during the final battle in The Great Mission to Save Princess Peach!. Mario had spent the adventure collecting a Mushroom, a Flower, and a Star, all three of which he needed to eat in order to gain the power to defeat King Koopa. He'd gotten through the former two, but before he could eat the star he got distracted by a bowl of rice and Mario Ramen Sprinkles appearing out of nowhere. While he was eating the Asian dish, Koopa unsurprisingly didn't waste any time and attacked him, causing Mario to drop the Star and it falling down a hole in the ground. If it hadn't been for Luigi having found it by accident whilst digging for trasure, Mario would have died then and there. | |

In one scene of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Mac is snacking on a banana while visiting an underground fight club with Dennis. On the audio commentary, the gang notes how adding a banana to a scene is instant comedy. In "The Gang Saves the Day," the Paddy's Gang gets Caught Up in a Robbery at a convenience store, leading to a "Rashomon"-Style episode where each member imagines what they would do to thwart the thief. In Frank's fantasy, though, he simply goes to the hot dog grill and stuffs his face while the carnage unfolds around him. |

iCarly: Sam gets a call from her friends telling her they're trapped in a teacher's house. She says something along the lines of "that sucks," picks up an apple, and takes a bite. Played straight and averted in the same scene with Sam in "iSaved Your Life". Freddie's been hit by a truck, Sam runs in to tell Spencer, and he realizes she's not joking (because they are currently engaged in a paintball assassin game) when she throws away the pizza he was about to eat. Once she's done telling him, she starts eating a taco she bought at the scene of the accident. |

In Wolf Hall, Thomas Cromwell has a plate of finger food on his desk as he's interviewing the Poles, Courtenays, and Bishop Fisher over their involvement with Elizabeth Barton, a nun who's been having visions and prophesying plagues over Henry's marriage to Anne Boleyn. He munches from it as he casually reveals how thoroughly he's been spying on them, ignores their insults, and instructs them on how humiliating their letters of apology and pleading will have to be for the king not to behead them all for treason. | |

Wonder Woman Vol 1: Queen Clea has a particularly cruel iteration where she sets up an execution or torture to watch while eating a meal. She gloats at her captives and then ignores them to give her food all of her attention until things get interesting by her standards, which generally means her victims are panicking and painfully dying which she'll watch with rapt attention while finishing her meal. | |

In Rick and Morty episode "Rickshank Redemption", as the two are watching Rick's memories of how he acquired the portal gun which was a total lie, his interrogator Cornvelius Daniel seems a lot more interested in the Szechuan McNugget sauce that Rick bought than the fake deaths of his wife and daughter. Of course, so is Rick really. He reveals at the end of the episode that finding the sauce again somewhere in the multiverse is his actual motivation for creating the portal gun, not the fake events he was showing the agent. | |

One recurring sketch on The Catherine Tate Show has Tate as a woman who finds herself in exciting situations with her friends, including hearing about a proposal, going on a beach vacation, or moving into her first apartment with a partner. Tate leaves the scene to get a snack of some kind, at which point something ridiculously horrible happens to the friend—the newly-engaged woman is brutally murdered in a drive-by shooting, her fellow vacationer is eaten alive by a shark, and the entire apartment building collapses with her partner inside. The camera cuts to Tate's character returning with her bag of snacks and calmly observing the awful carnage as she munches away without comment. | |

Discworld: In Making Money, Vetinari has a conversation with Moist von Lipwig while calmly eating a hard-boiled egg. The attention Vetinari pays to eating the egg only serves to annoy and confuse Moist, since he's already freaked out. (It didn't help that Vetinari mentions that a hanging always makes him hungry.) The folk song honoring the 10th Foot Infantry in Monstrous Regiment starts out as a Bawdy Song where a maiden in May is carrying a cheese when she passes by a soldier. She drops her bodice, and rather than helping her, the soldier runs off with the cheese. That's why they're nicknamed the Cheesemongers. Done intentionally in Night Watch. Vimes knows a crowd of angry civilians is heading toward the Watch house, with the intent of rioting, so he does the logical thing; he opens the doors, unshutters the windows, and sits out on the stoop with a cigar in one hand and a mug of cocoa in the other. When the demonstrators arrive, instead of finding the place defiantly preparing for a siege, it is instead open and welcoming, which defuses the tension. One drunken man still tries to have a go at Vimes by breaking a bottle for use as a weapon but winds up with a fist full of shards. This is where Vimes' choice of activity comes in handy; the entire crowd saw him with both hands full when this happened, so no one can claim he laid a finger on the man. |

Tony Stark is often seen eating, be it a burger just before a press conference or pizza during a heated conversation with Obadiah in Iron Man; donuts before talking to Nick Fury or strawberries after an unsuccessful attempt to explain himself to Pepper in Iron Man 2; or dried blueberries while arguing with Captain America in The Avengers. It has become such a defining trait of the character that they used it in the teaser for Captain America: Civil War, where Robert Downey Jr. is quarreling with Chris Evans over a donut. Stark's snacking was incorporated into the character due to Downey's real habit of snacking on set. | |

A variant in the film Paranorman is that acquiring a snack is more interesting. A man sees a group of zombies coming toward him down an alleyway while he waits for a vending machine to dispense his bag of chips. He hesitates as they get closer and closer, not wanting to abandon his snack. In the end, he does run off...only to come back a second later to grab the chips once they have finally fallen, and run off again. | |

The attention Vetinari pays to eating the egg only serves to annoy and confuse Moist, since he's already freaked out.

Subverted in The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King: The hobbit Peregrin "Pippin" Took is inducted into the Guard of Minas Tirith and an officer named Beregond is assigned to orient him. While the entire city is preparing for an assault by Sauron's armies, Pippin's first question is where can he get some breakfast? Far from being insulted by what might be considered a hobbit's Skewed Priorities, Beregond takes this as proof that Pippin is a veteran soldier, since every campaigner's first priority is knowing how to get a bite to eat whenever there's a lull in the action. Since J. R. R. Tolkien served in the First World War, he's speaking from experience. | |

Marvel Cinematic Universe: Denied by Volstagg in Thor, providing the alternate name for this trope. Do not mistake his appetite for apathy! His buddy Thor eats the same way while on Earth. Understandable since he's never tried Midgardian food before, and enjoys it Asgard style. Tony Stark is often seen eating, be it a burger just before a press conference or pizza during a heated conversation with Obadiah in Iron Man; donuts before talking to Nick Fury or strawberries after an unsuccessful attempt to explain himself to Pepper in Iron Man 2; or dried blueberries while arguing with Captain America in The Avengers. It has become such a defining trait of the character that they used it in the teaser for Captain America: Civil War, where Robert Downey Jr. is quarreling with Chris Evans over a donut. Stark's snacking was incorporated into the character due to Downey's real habit of snacking on set. In Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, M'Baku arrives late to a meeting of the Wakandan council and the first thing he does on entering is take a big bite out of a carrot he brought along, which he continues to eat throughout the scene. |

Happens in Galaxy Quest: Jason is more interested in sipping on his coke than listening to Big Bad Saris on their first encounter on the bridge. Justified as he mistakes the situation for a staged act. Fred is often seen with snack food, even in serious situations. He was originally intended to be a stoner, but those references were taken out to make the movie PG, leaving a habit for snacking that's still pretty funny. They may never directly mention any pot use, but damn near everything about Fred's personality still implies it. |

Death Note has a strong theme of characters eating a trademark favorite food while very important things are happening. Ryuk is usually eating apples while Light is explaining things. L is always eating and playing around with sweets while he's thinking, which he says he needs to power his brain. Mello also likes sweets but limits himself to chocolate bars. He makes a distinctive cracking sound when he bites off pieces while driving his machinations. A variation is done by Light when he puts on a performance for cameras hidden in his room; while pretending to be focused on studying and munching on a bag of chips, he actually writes names in the Death Note that he receives from the news, which is being displayed on a miniature television hidden inside the bag, thereby keeping up his murder rate and casting off (some) suspicion. |

Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods - Whis is more interested in trying Earth food than watching Beerus pummel the heroes and doesn't really seem to care one way or the other whether Beerus destroys the planet (as long as it's not before he gets a chance to try everything). Beerus himself is more interested in his drink than Goku's transformation to Super Saiyan God, only paying attention once he's ready to fight. In Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection 'F', the sequel, Beerus and Whis only come to Earth to watch Goku and Frieza's fight because Bulma made them a sundae. |

In Archie Comics, Jughead Jones is normally apathetic and somewhat aloof. The only thing he openly takes seriously is food. This results in his eating during serious discussions, with other characters getting annoyed at him. However, more often than not he really is paying attention and is simultaneously thinking on two levels: About his food and about the discussion at hand. | |

Renly Baratheon in A Song of Ice and Fire interrupts a tense truce negotiation with his stern elder brother Stannis — a meeting between two warring claimants to the throne, affecting the lives of thousands — by taking out a ripe peach and ostentatiously tucking into it. The combination of irreverence, mock-boredom, and sheer comical incongruity of the action infuriate Stannis, and he later finds himself more fixated on that insult than anything else that was decided at the parley. This small scene has undergone a bewildering degree of Memetic Mutation, to the point that Renly's School Of Thrones counterpart is never seen without a peach (occasionally even Dual Wielding them). | |

Invoked as a kind of subtle 'fuck you' in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. When negotiating with Captain Barbossa over the command of the Black Pearl, Jack Sparrow picks up a green apple from a basket in the middle of the table and casually begins munching on it while musing out loud. Thing is, Captain Barbossa is only in command of the Pearl because he mutinied against and overthrew Jack, has been cursed by Aztec gold to an existence of living death where he is unable to taste anything, apples are his favourite food, and the current topic of conversation is Jack musing about how, if Barbossa hadn't mutinied against and overthrew him, Jack would have been captain when they found the gold and would also have been cursed. So Barbossa has to watch and seethe as this guy he hates eats an apple that Barbossa yearns to taste again while 'casually' discussing how Barbossa's own actions ended up preventing Jack from being inflicted with the same curse that Barbossa suffers under. | |

One Piece: Luffy is easily distracted by food, often completely ignoring exposition or fights in favor of eating. If attacked while eating, his first priority will be to protect the food. When the God of Skypiea Enel encounters Nico Robin in the submerged city of Shandora he is seen eating an apple, this reflects his complete narcissism, security in his power, and hedonistic lifestyle. In reference to this, when Enel taunts in the licensed game One Piece Grand Battle! Rush!, he eats an apple. Eiichiro Oda, the original writer, also claimed apples were Enel's favourite food in an SBS. Also, Shanks' crewmate Lucky Roo, who is almost always seen chewing on a piece of meat. Not that he's incapable mind you, getting the first kill of the series with a pistol, especially because he's on a Yonko/Emperor's crew. Admiral Fujitora is seen enjoying a bowl of udon while his ship is under fire, among other instances of his strangely-timed snacks. |

Saturday Night Live: A MacGruber sketch has the character and his friends trapped in a control room somewhere with a bomb about to go off. MacGruber proceeds to ask his friends for a bunch of strange items that just happen to be lying around... only for it to be revealed he was making a drink. There were also the Pepsi Commercials where he was more concerned about endorsing Pepsi than the bomb about to go off. In another sketch, Kristin Wiig plays Cheryl, the host of a home makeover show. For the season finale, they surprise a woman named Lita (Emma Stone) with a two-million-dollar renovation of her house and yard. Lita is politely grateful but spends the entire segment calmly chomping on chips while Cheryl desperately attempts to get a bigger reaction out of her. For the punchline, Lita's neighbor drops by with some hard-boiled eggs his wife made, and that is enough to make her have a joyful breakdown ("THIS IS THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE!"). |

Game of Thrones The Torture Technician called "The Tickler" spends all his torture sessions casually eating a pear while he questions his victims. This shows his callous detachment to the pain he's inflicting. Appropriately, when Jaqen H'ghar kills The Tickler by pushing him down from a window, he's seen munching on a pear in plain sight while everyone gathers to inspect the corpse. Lord Bolton has to coldly tell his son to stop eating and pay attention when he's trying to discuss the political situation with him. Later, after Ramsey kills Osha Stark, he casually cleans off the knife and uses it to peel an apple and eat it. |

Not only is Kotomine clearly distracted by his food, but his normally sinister dialogue sounds absurd when he's constantly gasping for breath and talking with his mouth full. The effect is even worse since Shirou is a Supreme Chef who believes in using good food to deepen friendships, meaning he's almost as disgusted by Kotomine's Masochist's Meal as he is by Kotomine himself. | |

Doctor Who: In "The Sea Devils", the Third Doctor — in the middle of a sword fight with the Master — calmly pins his opponent to the wall by holding his sword point to his throat, then calmly eats a sandwich as he remarks about how violent exercise makes him rather famished. During all this, he's basically treating the Master like he's little more than an amusing distraction at best. As the sandwich was originally set out for the Master, this overlaps Enemy Eats Your Lunch, and being a sandwich, this naturally averts They Wasted a Perfectly Good Sandwich. By his twelfth incarnation, the Doctor has become so blasé about breaking-and-eavesdropping on an Evil Plan, he brings sushi along so he can have a snack. In "World Enough and Time", the Doctor is munching on chips while instructing Missy on their Swapped Roles. She calls him on it. |

Person of Interest. In "Mors Praematura", Root and Shaw break into a room that turns out to be a CIA "Pick-up site". Root begins to eat an apple and tells Shaw there's a CIA agent behind her. They get into a fight with Root watching and eating her apple all the while Shaw is beating up the agent until Root decides to simply use her taser and end the fight quickly. Shaw herself is a Big Eater, so this trope is used to show her sociopathic indifference. When a paramedic informs her as a four-year-old of her father's death in a car accident, Shaw just says she's hungry and asks for a sandwich. One more Shaw-related example, and definitely Played for Drama. It is revealed in a flashback that Shaw, who otherwise was a very good doctor (in the technical sense, at least), completely destroyed her career because she could not be bothered to stop eating a snack in the middle of giving a grieving family notice that their son died in surgery, and the understandably irate family went to her supervisor. Following her dismissal and taking in mind said supervisor's final bit of advice about having been in the Wrong Line of Work, Shaw decided to become a government assassin. |

In the remake of Ocean's Eleven Brad Pitt decided to play his character this way; he's snacking on food in just about every scene except the heist itself. Pitt justifies it in the commentaries by pointing out that, given the thieves' breakneck and unpredictable schedule during the heist prep, you really couldn't count on regular meal times. | |

In Pokémon: The Series, Team Rocket has occasionally been so distracted by Brock's cooking that they sometimes forget what they were supposed to be doing (running from some angry Breloom in one episode, the usual steal Pikachu scheme in another). It got to the point that Brock decides to exploit this in an early DP episode. In Pokémon the Series: XY, when an Inkay started stealing Team Rocket's food, James used some of it to capture it. |

In Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990), Raph is shown eating an apple after taking down a small group of Foot ninjas just before the big climactic fight scene. It's actually a call back to a cut scene where the Turtles were training by dueling each other while tossing the apple around, having to take a bite out of it before tossing it to someone else (ninja hot potato). The scene still works on its own, as a demonstration of Raph's contempt for his enemy; they're so far beneath him skill-wise that he can have a snack while taking them out. | |

Uncle Wiley from Black Friday is seen eating a green apple while he makes his Breaking Speech, walking in through the audience. Just before launching into his Villain Song "Made in America," he casually hands the half-eaten apple to a random audience member, saying, "Hold this." And then never comes back for it, leaving them there to just hold it for the rest of the show. (Amusingly, during one show, the audience member in question was cast member Kim Whalen's father, and he just went ahead and finished eating it.) | |

Patrick Jane from The Mentalist will often make himself a pot of tea or a sandwich using food taken without asking from the kitchen of the person whose murder he's solving (as well as the kitchen of almost every other house he visits over the course of the investigation). Sure, he's paying attention when he eats it, but he has to leave the room (again, without asking) for a few minutes to prepare it. Of course, since he investigates murders one of them inevitably involves poisoning... of the victim's tea. Patrick ends up in the hospital and spends most of the episode hallucinating from side-effects | |

In Breaking Bad episode "Hazard Pay", Skyler is upset and has a breakdown. Walt comes home and, after getting rid of Marie, proceeds to grab an apple from the kitchen and casually eat it, not seeming to care at all. In another episode a bunch of Cartel thugs are sharing snacks while listening to the rival gang's guards' desperate attempts to break out of their drug delivery truck the thugs locked them in, before turning it into an impromptu gas van. To add insult to injury, they took the snacks from the truck driver after killing him. And in yet another episode, one of the Salamanca cousins casually eats an apple after distracting a police officer so his brother can slaughter the cop with an ax. |
