It's been my observation that every gamer has his/her perfect snack and/or drink while gaming it up, whether you consider yourself to be a casual gamer or "hardcore". Some people roll with healthy snacks (for all I know) and others roll with extreme amounts of no-doz and energy drinks with oreos ready or something.

Personally, alcohol and gaming is where it's at...

whats your gaming snack-fu?

With friends, we normally play drunken Rock Band. Being it beer or some mixed drink, its always a lot of fun.
When gaming alone, I either drink cofee, water, or iced tea. I never eat, for crumbs get on the controllers or keyboard.

Salami sandwiches, sunflower seeds, lemonade.

Keeps me happy long into my gaming binges.

When I was younger, I had no problem eating popcorn or chips while gaming, and having sodas or milkshakes with that, but then once you get older, eating junk food just makes you feel terrible afterward. I dunno what it is, but I used to eat stuff like double-stacked burgers with two portions of fries. Now I can't even think about it. Nowadays, If I eat a burger, it'll taste great, but after ten minutes, I just feel tired, almost like I just hurt myself.

I mainly drink stuff while gaming now. Coffee is good. Sodas occasionally. If I must eat, an apple is good if I'm not playing a fast-paced FPS.

Can't remember when the last time i was eating and gaming at the same time... Probably the closest I've come is chips and salsa. Drinks though, now thats where the magic is. Coffee and/or coke is common, Beer (and occasionally spirits) is probably more common still. Bring me a guiness!

I really don't do some eatin' & drinkin' while playin'.

But if I must, it's usually some juice, or a bowl of Baked Lays Chips. Yum.

Gaming is the best damn weight loss plan I've ever encountered, as I very frequently forget to eat while I'm playing. Give me a long enough gaming session and as likely as not I'll have skipped several meals...especially if my wife's off somewhere else (when she spent two weeks in Canada last fall I lost ten pounds.)

I drink pepsi while I play, or water, whatever I have.


I don't usually eat, because I hate getting grease/crumbs on my controllers.

Im pretty sure robots dont eat people food.

I dont eat anything that gets sticky or has crumbs, so usually gummy bears.

Gummy Bears are delicious. And it seems that Sanity has found himself a contradiction. Unless he's some force enchanted HK model that has a fully functional digestive system and working taste buds.
