#the only instance where black ends up falling for a trap involving food but doesn't lose was in Operation: Mouth Trap (images 6-9)

Is it just me or does Black Spy have a hearty appetite?
Here is a compilation of Black Spy basically having a healthy appetite (usually to the point of fault):
And this last one, of course, is probably the most disturbing food related prank/trap, which I had exposed in a previous post:
We all knew exactly where this was gonna go...
Anyhow, this makes me wonder why Black has quite a bit of a healthy appetite. I mean, we all know he has fallen for food related pranks on multiple occasions, especially in a few of the strips from one of the paperbacks (specifically "The MAD Fifth Reports of Spy vs. Spy," which was later reprinted for the first portion of "Spy vs. Spy Casebook of Craziness," except for the "Spy jr vs. Spy jr" strip from right at the beginning of that same paperback book). Apparently, some say that Black may not be getting paid enough (considering that it has been shown that his boss has put him through hell on at least a few occasions; *cough*Doggie Bagged*cough*). A few might say that the dude probably just likes food, plain and simple. Both of those assumptions could be possible, especially the first one. Either way, this makes me think that there might be a possibility Black Spy could probably be a potential candidate for the Big Eater trope (at least during Prohias's era, of course), to the point of fault that is. I wouldn't really be surprised as the images I provided basically say it all, or at least most of it.
Bonus:
(Taken from "Danger! Intrigue! Stupidity!" which is, of course, a reprint of "The All New Secret Files of Spy vs. Spy.")
The images of the Electric Spaghetti were screenshots taken from MADtv. That short was originally a one panel opening gag a little over three decades prior during the strips' early years.
I do not claim ownership of any content. Spy vs. Spy belongs to the defunct MAD magazine and Antonio Prohias.
