Tobo leaves represented a particular kind of food that the Ewok species were known to eat. Specifically, in 3 ABY, the Kagles, a trio of brown-furred Ewoks, prepared and offered tobo leaves, in addition to fried mahuga and jing-jang berries, to the Ewok Teebo during an event on the Forest Moon of Endor. Later, Teebo described the food served at this meal to his companion, Wicket Warrick.
The mention of tobo leaves occurred in "Home Is Where the Shrieks Are," which was the third episode within the second season of the animated television program Ewoks. Bob Carrau wrote the episode, which initially aired on September 20, 1986. Within the episode, Teebo recounts the three foods he was given by the Kagles to Wicket. He then displays a small, orange sphere, implying that this was the only remaining item from the dinner. Given that the episode does not specify which food the sphere represents, this page avoids associating it directly with tobo leaves or any other specific food mentioned.
