The Snack Attack is a building weapon for the Spy. It resembles a broken Sapper, with wrapped copper wires and several rods suspending a bread monster in the center, which snaps at the player when the item is in use.

This weapon functions identically to the Sapper, however, when placed on an enemy Engineer's building, the monster clamps its teeth down on it and flails its body while destroying the building. This effect is purely cosmetic and does not deal additional damage to the enemy building.
