In the original [[Sony PlayStation]] port, [[Nottagen]] had to be saved for the obtaining of this item, while the [[Nintendo 3DS]] port makes the M.M. office accessible through a [[teleportal]] from [[The Haven]]. This means monster taming can happen much sooner than before, but the enclosures must still be built before the monsters can be interacted with.

Monster munchies return to being store-bought, common items, but are much more handy than before. Throwing a bag of meat at an enemy monster will greatly improve it's attitude towards the player, and several servings can be used in a single battle for a nearly 100% chance to recruit even metal monsters.
==={{DQB2}}===
The [[Builder (Dragon Quest Builders 2)|Builder]] will receive a bundle of monster munchies during the events of [[Skelkatrez]], and will be able to produce their own at a brick barbecue with one frogstool and one bit of dry grass. When certain enemies are defeated in Explorer's Shores islands, a 30 second timer will appear over them and players can offer food to tame them and take them back to the [[Island of Awakening]].
