Something Missing?

Fire Flowers (alternatively written as Fireflowers), also known as Flame Flowers, are power-ups that can be obtained in most games in the Mario franchise, particularly the 2D platformers in the main series. Originating from Super Mario Bros., they are usually found inside ? Blocks and enable the player to throw fireballs, which can be used to defeat enemies, melt Ice Blocks, and illuminate dark places. Unlike the Super Mushroom, the Fire Flower is stationary after spawning. In many depictions, the Fire Flower is simply grabbed and wielded as opposed to being consumed like Mushrooms, which is most noticeable in the Mario & Luigi and Paper Mario series, as well as in other media such as the Super Smash Bros. series and Super Mario Bros.: Trapped in the Perilous Pit, though some media, such as Club Nintendo and Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (which also uses Fire Flowers as ingredients for recipes), do suggest characters eat Fire Flowers. While Mario in Club Nintendo remarks that the Fire Flower tastes "disgusting," the bio for Fire Flower's constellation in Mario Party 9 describes it as a spicy and "surprisingly tasty snack."
