Krabby Patty secret formula

In Bummer Vacation, it is shown that the Krabby Patty ingredients are delivered to the Krusty Krab. However, in multiple episodes, it is implied that the ingredients are made by the Krusty Krab itself. This creates a contradiction because they can’t realistically be made on-site. For example, in The Hankering, SpongeBob says he doesn’t know how to cook chum, yet in Friend or Foe, it is revealed that Krabby Patties are made from chum. This suggests that the ingredients are not made at the Krusty Krab itself.

So, what if there’s another building owned by the Krusty Krab that produces the ingredients? SpongeBob likely makes the patties using the secret formula, but the actual ingredients are manufactured elsewhere. This theory aligns with Patty Caper, where it’s shown that the secret ingredient and the secret formula are separate things. This could mean SpongeBob knows the secret formula but not the ingredients used in it.

As for this company, I think it would be owned by Mr. Krabs but managed by someone else. The company would likely operate under a different name, like “The Krusty Farm” or something similar. Its role would be to produce the Krabby Patty ingredients and deliver them to the Krusty Krab. I imagine this facility would have around 20 employees because it would be very busy producing all the ingredients. The building itself would probably be a large factory to handle the scale of food production required.

That’s my theory! Let me know if there’s anything I missed or need to adjust.

It doesn't even matter if he steals the formula, his reputation is already ruined so people won't go there.

I think they should reveal the Krabby Patty secret formula in-show

It went from a mystery to an over protected child, especially in the episode Plankton Paranoia, Mr Krabs went too far in that episode.

How should the show reveal it? maybe Squidward reveals it, or a hip hop rap song with all of the ingredients sung by The Just Dancers (joke) or maybe an episode where this time EVERYONE chases Krabs for the formula

Either way, Mr Krabs should have no say because he does not deserve to own the formula

Its time we put the secret to rest

I have been a fan of the show since about 1999, and I've gotta say, people NEED to stop hating on the newer episodes. I think the newer seasons and episodes are just changing to fit the younger generations and people. Nickelodeon has ALWAYS been made to make the KIDS laugh. I think we might just be growing up. The show has always ended for me right when the 1st movie premiered. Maybe the rest just aren't for us? There are a couple older-style episodes here and there but that's about it. Maybe we just need to accept that we are getting older and Spongebob is morphing to adapt to the younger kids. I think thats a good thing.

I knew it wouldn't dissapoint :D

(Written from Tom's POV)

[I enter the Krusty Krab for a late 1PM lunch. I hear faint squeaks throughout the conversation but ignore them.]

Unknown crab: [startled] I didn't do it! [sees me] Ohh, heh-heh, can I help ya?

Me: Yeah, I'm ready to order.

Unknown crab: [takes out a notepad] What'll ya have?

Me: I'll take a jumbo Krabby Patty.

Unknown crab: [becomes surprised] What did you say?

Me: (Slightly annoyed) ...I said, I'll take a jumbo Krabby Patty.

Unknown crab: Huh?

The Krusty Krab fry cook: [still in tears] I heard his order, Mr. Krabs. He says he wants a jumbo Krabby Patty.

Unknown crab (who I now know as Mr. Krabs): What?

Me: And a side of medium coral bits.

The entire Bikini Bottom got together to try to take the Secret Formula? And I mean EVERYONE (well, maybe not the main characters with the exception of Squidward)

To those who've watched the SpongeBob Season 14 Episode "Sammy Suckerfish", does anybody know what's written in Sammy Suckerfish's tongue?🤔

What if: after many failed schemes, EVERYONE in Bikini Bottom team up with Plankton to learn the Secret formula.

From Fred, to the Irish fish from Patty hype, to Perch Perkins, heck, even Patrick Sandy and Squidward, Pearl and Mrs Puff too, EVERYONE! THE ENTIRE BIKINI BOTTOM!

Mr Krabs is alone, what should he do.

So I plan to make SpongeBob characters who are elemental mermaids, like Air, Earth, Fire and Water. Here is my story.

After being fed up with Mr Krabs’s expensive food and that Plankton Paranoia incident, they hatched a plan to reveal the secret formula by melting it underneath hot glass.

They stole the secret formula in secret, replaced it with a fake one, then when they came they locked Krabs’s office door, burned his money, broke the bottle, stuck it to the front of the door and put hot glass over the other side, Mr Krabs burst thru the door, but it was too late.

Then, his rampage is similar to Gothel’s defeat in tangled, the earth mermaid grabs Krabs with a tree and pushed him all the way to the Chum Bucket, Plankton (who didn’t know what was going on) almost got killed, the door was completely busted through with no way out for Krabs or Plankton.
