"I thought you said this ship was safe."
"It was until your curious aversion to Xandarian snails exposed you as human."
Leo Fitz and Enoch[src]

The Xandarian Snails are creatures from Xandar with an appearance of a larger land snail. They are repurposed by the Kree as a dish served for consumption.

History[]

"I patched all your fuel lines and rebuilt your entire tank irrigation system."
"He also increased the efficiency of the CO2 scrubbers by 30 percent, which has the added benefit of making the Xandarian snails more fertile."
Leo Fitz and Enoch to Viro[src]

In an attempt to escape from the attackers who had destroyed their spaceship, Leo Fitz got recruited on Viro's ship, which transported several breeding tanks of Xandarian Snails. Fitz's work on the spaceship increased the fertility of the snails. Although he initially posed as a Sivian with the help of an Iriscope, Fitz's human nature was revealed to the rest of the crew when he expressed disgust towards the animals.

The snails transported on the ship eventually perished when Fitz tricked Viro into opening the wrong airlock in the spacecraft. Fitz remained unaffected by this loss since he had little taste for the creatures.[1]

Alternate Universes[]

Lighthouse Dinner[]

"I, too, have brought a rare delicacy for everyone's enjoyment. Fresh Xandarian snail!"
Gaius Ponarian[src]

In an alternate 2091 where Earth had been destroyed, Kasius hosted a dinner at the Lighthouse for bidders wishing to purchase Daisy Johnson, who was reportedly responsible for Earth's demise. One of the bidders, Gaius Ponarian, offered the diners Xandarian Snails as a gesture to earn Kasius' favor. Ponarian expressed concern when he noticed that Leo Fitz was not eating the snails, to which Fitz replied that he found moist creatures distasteful.[2]

Characteristic Traits[]

According to Enoch, Xandarian snails are made fertile by efficient carbon dioxide scrubbers.[1]
