Marshmallow

Marshmallows were treats used during the Campfire Ceremonies in the first season and the fourth season as a symbol of safety from elimination.

Total Drama Island
According to Chris, marshmallows represent the campers' safety on the show and the camper who does not receive a marshmallow will be automatically eliminated, must walk the Dock of Shame and then ride the Boat of Losers and never come back, although that last part has been proven to be false, as Eva and Izzy both returned during the competition.

At each of the campfire ceremonies, Chris stands behind an oil drum, holding a plate full of marshmallows. He explains what happens when a camper doesn't receive a marshmallow, and then hands out marshmallows to the campers. When there is only one marshmallow left, Chris will have some type of dialogue relating to the final two campers and then give out the final marshmallow, often with a dramatic pause of varied length in between.

The final marshmallow is given out in The Very Last Episode, Really! to Gwen or Owen, depending on the ending. In the official ending, Owen receives the last marshmallow and claims he will treasure it for the rest of his life, but his appetite gets the best of him and he ends up swallowing it whole.

Total Drama Action
In this season, marshmallows are not given out as a sign of immunity, but are still seen in some episodes of the season, being used as giant marshmallow boxing gloves. In Million Dollar Babies, these marshmallows play an important role early in the episode in the first challenge, by being used as boxing gloves by Harold and Lindsay. While they are fighting, Lindsay eats a part of Harold's marshmallow. Duncan has to use these marshmallows to fight the bear in Mutiny on the Soundstage when he does not answer the question relating to this challenge properly. Duncan continuously punches the bear, until the bear knocks him out in one punch. The large marshmallows seen during the season could also be used as a weapon by the player in the Cartoon Network game, "Best. Game. Ever.".

Total Drama World Tour
For the elimination ceremony in Awwwwww, Drumheller, Chris decided to do a tribute to the first season by using the marshmallows as the symbols of safety. He gives marshmallows to Sierra and Heather. He was about to give one to Cody, until Sierra blew up the plane, effectively ending the elimination ceremony due to Chris' grief, as well as her chances of winning the one million dollar prize.

Total Drama: Revenge of the Island
The marshmallows are used once again as the symbol of safety, with the same rules as the first season. However, a different marshmallow is given to the contestant that does not receive a regular marshmallow, and is eliminated from the competition. The marshmallow also makes an appearance in the whole season inside a space satellite, just like first season did.
