Scooby Snacks are a brand of dog biscuits in the Scooby-Doo animated franchise. They are a favorite of Scooby-Doo's, and he usually gets them via bribes from his friends in Mystery Incorporated in order to be brave, except for Shaggy Rogers, Scooby's owner, who is more often than not included in the bribe. When they were depicted as kids in A Pup Named Scooby-Doo, it was established as food Scooby and Shaggy could regularly attain themselves, making the bribes somewhat redundant. In Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated and Be Cool, Scooby-Doo!, they were no longer bribes, mostly since Scooby and Shaggy managed to be brave without the need of Scooby Snacks.

History

In popular culture

  • In the Red Razors arc in the comic 2000AD, there is a group of Sov-Block mercenary enforcers who called themselves the Spooky Doo Gang, due to owning a dog called Spooky who resembled a green Scooby-Doo. Spooky and Shabby, parodies of Scooby and Shaggy, respectively, are given "mystery-munchies" to provide them with an incentive to do their jobs.
  • In Archie's Weird Mysteries #6, which is an all-out parody of Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!, Jughead and Hot Dog eat from a box of dog biscuits called Gooby Snax, illustrated with a dog's head resembling Scooby.
  • In the Saturday Night Live episode "Rob Lowe/Eminem," there is a sketch where Scooby and Shaggy are interviewed on Crime TV with accusations that the gang wrongfully sent Mr. Montgomery to jail. Shaggy claims that as American citizens it is their right, but Mr. Montgomery bribes them to think differently with a box of Scooby Snacks.
  • In Looney Tunes #71, Veltunia bribes Tazzy-Doo and Daffy with Tazzy-Snacks.

  • In The Cleveland Show episode "Nightmare on Grace Street," Cleveland and Rallo are forced to spend the night in a spooky mansion on Halloween.

  • In the So Random! episode "Cole & Dylan Sprouse," a girl wants to find her missing bike, so she takes her neighbor's Great Dane, her mom's minivan, and feeds the dog Scooby Bites all the while she solves the mystery, but it caused him to leave a big pile of "Scooby doo-doo" in the back seat. Scooby and Shaggy are sent to jail for 20 years for inspiring this, with Sally Jensen, kid lawyer, mocking them with a box of Scooby Bites.
  • In the New Teen Titans short "Turn Back the Clock," Mad Mod turns back time altering the appearances of the Teen Titans with each passing decade, with the 70s making them look like Mystery Inc.; Beast Boy is Scooby, who has an empty box of vegetarian BB Snacks, which makes him whine with a "Ruh-roh."
