Season 1 is the first season of Chowder. The first season ran from 2007 to 2008, with the first four episodes airing on November 2, 2007 and the final episode of the season airing on July 24, 2008. It contains 20 episodes.
When Chowder unknowingly fills a dish with poison, Mung must spend an action-packed day keeping the tainted food away from the citizens of Marzipan City.
Chowder is forced to swallow his new gum before Truffles finds out he didn't buy enough to share. Soon all of Marzipan City ends up in a very sticky situation.
When Chowder shrinks down in size, and is then held captive in a tree that is home to a lonely monster, the others must beat the monster in a board game to set him free.
In order to cook the performing food Sing Beans, the gang has to stay up all night as the dish cooks. But Chowder takes it upon himself to finish the process with wildly musical results.
Chowder and Mung go to an unfamiliar part of Marzipan City to deliver a customer's order, a sentient Roast Most, but the place is dirty and somewhat crime-infested, resulting in a dangerous event in which a large rat, who seems to have malicious purposes, chases them.
Set during the events of "The Wrong Address". While Chowder and Mung deliver the Roast Most, an unexpected outlaw (who seems to be blind and deaf) uses the catering company as a hideout, leaving Shnitzel to save Truffles' life. Truffles mistakes the outlaw for a customer, though, and criticizes Shnitzel for seeming to be reluctant to serve him. The police are supposed to enter the building and arrest the outlaw, but are too busy deciding who goes first.
Mung makes a smelly Clabbage Cobbler, which Kimchi falls in love with. In order to retrieve the dish, Chowder goes up to the roof and keeps the stink cloud company during the night.
Gazpacho has a stand-up comedy gig coming up soon, but he has no material for it. He asks Chowder to write down his jokes in a book, but problems occur when Chowder's handwriting is illegible to everyone.
When Truffles' behavior causes giant fruits called Elemelons to go on strike, Mung forces her to solve the problem by staying in their cage for a night.
Feeling that Chowder has been spending too much time in the kitchen, Mung forces him to play sports with other kids. Upset by Panini's kisses and Gorgonzola's taunts, Chowder has to figure out a way to escape the game and get back to the kitchen.
After Mung forgets his and Truffles' wedding anniversary, Truffles gives him the cold shoulder. Seeing that Mung is depressed by this, Chowder decides to use advice from Gazpacho to help out.
After accidentally letting a mold creature out of its bottle, everything Chowder touches becomes covered in mold. After realizing what has happened, Mung tries to solve things before the entire city becomes moldy.
After he has a midnight snack, Chowder's internal clock goes haywire and he becomes a monster at night. Chowder must now survive an entire night without eating anything to become normal again.
Chowder and Shnitzel must race against the clock when delivering an order to a man that lives on top of a giant, since he gets it free if it comes before sunset.
Shnitzel quits Mung's Catering Company for good and goes to work for their rival, Endive. But he soon discovers that his old friends mean more to him than he realized.
When Mung has to make a dish that requires a certain fruit that he fears due to a past experience with it, he sends Chowder and Shnitzel in his place to retrieve it.
When Chowder and Gorgonzola are unwillingly paired up at the annual Apprentice Games competition, they discover their opposing personalities lead to a winning formula.
