## Biography

### Past

In the Alternate Reality of his mainstream universe counterpart: Mr. Krabs.

Sheldon J. Plankton was born on the same day as Mr. Krabs where both the two would later meet each as babies.

During his childhood with him, Both Plankton and Krabs were considered outcasts by the other kids, because Krabs was poor and Plankton was already very intelligent, which earned him the image of a nerd. When they discovered that money could bring them out of their poverty, they decided to make money selling hamburger patties and set up a mini-restaurant in the local dump.

At first, their burgers were not successful; the first of their patties were tried by Old Man Jenkins, who was knocked out by the contaminated burger. Plankton started complaining about how Jenkins had been old and not able to handle the patty. Offended by this, Krabs tried to take the recipe from Plankton to improve upon. Krabs wanted to do this himself and both he and Plankton argued, but he only ended up with the corner of the recipe, which read: "And a pinch of chum." Krabs stormed out of the restaurant and went to create his recipe, using only his memory, the corner of the recipe, and science. At school, Krabs tried to sell his chum burgers in a chum bucket and failed, while Plankton succeeded with his Krabby Patties, which he had created by accident when Krabs had forcefully slammed the door. Ingredients fell in the patty batter, thus creating the patty. Krabs later named his restaurant the Chum Bucket, after the secret ingredient of the original unsuccessful patty recipe. Mr. Plankton named his restaurant the Krusty Krab after his former friend.

To this very day, Krabs has been single-mindedly obsessed with obtaining the Krabby Patty formula and running the Krusty Krab out of business.
