Okay, what, in your opinion, is the best snacking food to eat while playing games, or watching T.V.

I'm all for Beer Nuts ;) :D

Tortilla chips with melted cheese and a side of cheese salsa or normal salsa. :cool:

On my low carb diet I gnaw on slim jims and celery sticks.

Nothing like some unrefrigerated meat and tasteless, fibrous veggies to kill your appetite. :(

20 pounds ago I would have gone with cheese doodles - my keyboard is permanently stained orange. :p

Maki-zushi, but it gets expensive.

Pizza. Always pizza, especially when playing videgames with the munchies...Image

I don't eat snacks while playing games...and I almost never watch TV...but when I read, I eat a lot of snacks, anything, crisps and tortillia chips are my favorites.

Nice try, but I'd go for pretzel sticks and in between the salty stuff I like something sweet ... I like the contrasting tastes when I get the munchies... ;) .D

No worries,

EDIT - BTW I only eat while watching TV (or a Video)....not while playing...

When I have the munchies I usually lose my sense of taste anyway (great for mull butter!), so it becomes the texture and general easiness to eat of the food that becomes important.

I don't eat whilst watching a movie, maybe if its the usual drivel on TV. As for games, well I refuse to see my controllers and keyboard and mouse become all greasy and dirty. I have issues I know... :D

I do not really snack at all, though if I do it is in aperhaps a shockingly inconvenience-food based way... :rolleyes: I guess the closest thing to a 'snack'em' that I eat would be Mr. Kipling pies *drools, thinking of the xceedingly good cake* mmmmm
However, I do have a friend who constantly keeps a plate of bacon or pork fat next to his bed, which he scrapes of and eats with a butter knife while gaming, as well as an industrial sized barrel of green olives which he buys from a restaurant supplier, and a 6 kilo sack of bombay mix....yes, his controllers are rank :D

Urg! That's just nasty! :D ;)

Mmmm.... Kipling and his exceedingly good cakes... :D I eat Iced Gems and a bikkit normally. :D Along with some form of liquid refreshment beverage.

Make them yourself. It's not too difficult, unless you are picky what to roll... ;)

Oh, and my choice is nice wine with selection of cheese and olives. :cool:

I'd like to get a small fridge to put near my computer for Coke. I usually go through 2 cans a day.
