The Disguised Delicacy (ミカケダマシ?, lit.: "Deceiving Appearance") is a treasure in Pikmin 2 and a fruit in Pikmin 3. It is a kiwifruit. In Pikmin 2, it is found at the start of the Dream Den, while in Pikmin 3, it can be found in the Distant Tundra and the Tropical Wilds.
Collecting the treasure
In Pikmin 2, the Disguised Delicacy can be found on the first floor of the Dream Den in the Wistful Wild. The sublevel contains multiple Dwarf Orange Bulborbs, Lesser Spotted Jellyfloats, a Hermit Crawmad, and gas pipes between this treasure and the ship.

Tropical Wilds
Location of the Disguised Delicacy in the Tropical Wilds. Note that this is the location where the Shaggy Long Legs spawns, and the fruit could be dropped in a different location to this.
- See also: Shaggy Long Legs strategy.
The one in the Tropical Wilds is being held by the Shaggy Long Legs. Defeat the mini-boss to get the fruit. To find the Shaggy Long Legs, you must break the electric gate being guarded by an Orange Bulborb near the Dawn Pustules. The Orange Bulborb can be taken out with bomb rocks buried nearby. Note that the fruit will drop out of the Shaggy Long Legs wherever it is defeated, which could be in either of its 2 arenas.
Distant Tundra
Location of the Disguised Delicacy in the Distant Tundra.
The one in the Distant Tundra is in a large crystal in the room with the Yellow Onion, but requires Rock Pikmin to get, meaning that the double bridge must be built before attempting to retrieve the fruit.
Collecting the treasure
Blossoming Arcadia
There is a Disguised Delicacy behind a corner in the center of Sublevel 2 of the Secluded Courtyard. Upon approaching it, an Anode Dweevil will fall from the ceiling and attack you, so it must be dealt with. To collect this treasure, you must throw 5 Pikmin at it.
Serene Shores
There is a Disguised Delicacy inside of a large hydro jelly near the top right of Sublevel 1 of the Subzero Sauna. To collect this treasure, you must first burst the hydro jelly, then throw 5 Pikmin at it.
Hero's Hideaway
There is a Disguised Delicacy sitting atop a high-up table alongside the Sweet Torrent near the center of Sublevel 5 of the Plunder Palace. Upon approaching it, a Puffy Blowhog will descend from the ceiling and attack you, which must be defeated before attempting to collect it. To collect this treasure, you must throw 5 Pikmin at it. A nearby Giant Breadbug may attempt to steal it, in which case you will need to either damage it or best it in tug-of-war.
Notes
Olimar's journal
“The fruit on this planet is astonishingly large. If we could cultivate these ample fruits on Hocotate, nobody would ever go hungry again! Sadly, I don't know anything about agriculture. Maybe I should have listened to my wife when she told me to do yard work...”
Sales pitch
“Fruits cannot be judged by their outer coverings, no matter how hairy. This one is quite yummy. It is times like these that make me wish I were equipped with advanced taste capabilities.”
Brittany's notes
“Ha! This fuzzy produce thought it could disguise itself as one of the native creatures, but I'd know the smell of Piktamin U anywhere! Take that, fruit!”
