When playing PC games, what do you usually eat/drink?

Cheez-its , Popcorn , Chex Mix. Sometimes I'll eat a sandwich , salami + mayo + mustard + good quality bread (none of that Wonderbread bullshit).

For drinks , Root Beer , OJ , Vitamin Water and sometimes although rarely Beer.

That's about it.


My computer would look like London after the air raids during WW2 if I ate any of this while gaming.
 
grapes, cheese and salami go surprisingly well with a good quality beer
 
Whoa, just how much soda did you drink a day to lose 65 lbs by dropping it?

LOL

No I didn't lose all that weight by cutting out soda alone, I'd go through maybe a couple of 2L bottles of soda a week, as part of a more general diet it helps cut down on calories massively and makes dieting much easier.

It's about 800-900 calories for a 2L bottle of coke or something with similar sugar content so about 4x 2L bottles per week is in the region of enough calories to drop 1lb of fat if you cut it out.

How would you know? You said you drank Rolling Rock. I'd tell you I was joking, but I'm so dead serious that I pushed my keyboard off my desk when I read it.
 
I will agree that I can't really snack in front of the computer, though I don't tend to eat snack foods anyway. I'll take a meal break instead.

I will, however, drink more than a couple Pike "Kilt Lifter" Ruby ales depending on the difficulty of the game.

I drink Bud Light.
 
OP: you can't call yourself a gamer when you have a wireless mouse and a wireless Apple keyboard :p

Heh, I just can't call myself a COMPETITIVE PC gamer. And I'm not. I hardly play online. And in single player campaigns, I always play on normal difficulty.

My PC's high function isn't gaming anyways, but rather web design and development (I work at a design agency and also do work as as independent contractor), so I spent a pretty penny on my NEC monitor. I like wireless devices too since it reduces clutter, and I like truncated keyboards since I hardly ever use what's on the right side, so having a shorter keyboard means that I have to move my right hand a shorter distance between my keyboard and mouse.
 
Trying not to derail thread, but Bud Light and Rolling Rock?!?! Damnit people, if you're going to kill your liver, make it worth it. A Lagunitas Lil' Sumpin Ale will blow your mind.
 
I'm on board with most everything that comes out of Lagunitas.

Anyway, beef jerkey makes a clean snack for gaming.
 
The souls of the fallen and the tears of the wailing.

Drink: Soda, water

Food: Bread, Meat, Cheese and carrots. I like carrots.

The only difference between that crap and Bud Light is that Bud Light doesn't taste like urine and is way cheaper.

The only other beer is find that is pretty good is Keystone. :cool: BE SMOOTH, LIKE KEITH STONE.
 
I love to eat when I game specially since I always Smoke (for my cataracts ofcourse).
Im like fucking macgyver on the fridge. Specially after a 10+ hour run!

example:
In between matches go to the fridge and I have no bread and no jelly.
Substitute bread for pita bread and jelly for maple syrup!
The Peanut butter is my room mates btw!...lol

I never ever ever ever drink my calories.
I rather eat my calories!
Water and Seltzer are the best cures for cotton mouth!

It's because you're drinking water and can't handle a real beer...which is fine, but at least be honest with yourself.

Nothing is quite as fun as a good drinking night - CS knife only scrims or WOW raiding old content can be fun as hell.

My favorite beer joke:

There's a big conference of beer producers. At the end of the day, the presidents of all beer companies decide to have a drink in a bar.

The president of 'Budweiser' orders a Bud, the president of 'Miller' orders a Miller Lite, Adolph Coors orders a Coors, and the list goes on. Then the waitress asks Arthur Guinness what he wants to drink, and much to everybody's amazement, Mr. Guinness orders a Coke!

"Why don't you order a Guinness?" his colleagues ask.

"Naah. If you guys won't drink beer, then neither will I."

If you really want to blow your mind, go to Specs or any other reputable beer vendor and grab yourself an Ayinger Celebrator Dopplebock.

You can't be a snob without trying the best!

On Topic: I usually drink water and rarely eat at my computer. That was all different when I was in college and literally ate all my meals at my desk.
 
Yeah, I didn't want to go totally obscure and throw something that couldn't be found at a fair number of liquor/grocery stores. Although this is fairly well known, it's hard to find:

Funny, it tastes like beer and has alcohol. I also don't have to vomit when I taste it. I don't drink beer because its popular or hipster, I drink it because it's good.

FALSE

Hipsters drink PBR which is worst than anything mentioned in this thread.

I do drink Rolling Rock when I can't get the good stuff, its my fallback beer. I also drink Blue Moon and Belgian White. I like getting special seasonal brews when they come out too. Problem is , I live in an area where quality beers are a rare find without making a drive. It is mostly Bud light piss water around here.

Try not to get so mad. Have a beer and relax. ;)
 
I usually don't eat or drink at my computer desk. I almost always have an open can of Dr. Pecker or NOS in the fridge. When I'm playing an FPS, which is most of the time, I'll hop up and go grab a sip of whatever I have open in between matches. I never drink water...it tastes like...nothing. Sweet tea is the shit btw...whoever said it was nasty...wtf is wrong with your taste buds?
 
I never ate them, but I always fancied the thought of gaming and eating Planters brand Cheez balls. What a shame they're no longer made.
 
Only time I really eat anything at the computer it seems is breakfast. Cereal or the occasional pancakes. Nothing like a good coffee those weekend mornings too.

Rest of the time, I always have something nearby to drink. Whether it be water, Diet Coke, Bier, the occasional rum n diet Coke. If I need something to snack on, I try to stick to non-messy stuff like mini-pretzels because they're not greasy or messy. Although sometimes saltines & spicy humus really hit the spot!

This whole sentence, and everything else with it, is the most inane crap I've ever read in my life. Just because it TASTES like beer and it has alcohol, doesn't make it beer. Drinking that watered down crap and calling others who drink actual beer with real ingredients hipsters is a little like playing high-quality graphics games on a MacBook and claiming it's the same experience as someone who is playing the exact same game, but on a high-powered laptop. It's just not going to fly. But it's ok, because you seem to know everything and no one can argue with you. Enjoy your gourmet beer.

Let's be real people. :rolleyes:

Hahaha, almost lol'd at work.

One of the things I love about England is the real ale - I can't believe you Americans actually drink Coors Lite, Miller Lite and all that crap. World's most refreshing beer... how refreshing is it when it's not ice cold and tastes like urine?

Man, you are insane. Sorry. Those are bottom of the barrel. If anyone has a World of Beer in their area, I highly suggest you go. Bud Light is like drinking water.
