This is an interesting new mechanic that spices up the traditional gameplay of previous games, and it is a nice incentive to encourage players to keep playing and collecting more food.

Mario Kart World has a handful of new costumes from Dash Food

In the recent Nintendo Direct, the developer showcased a new point of interest called Yoshi's, a drive-thru in Mario Kart World where you can drive up to the counter and eat whatever food is served. Whatever food you consume, this will be the inspiration for your new outfit, and it will be permanently added to your extensive wardrobe.
