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

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

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.

Maki-zushi, but it gets expensive.

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

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,
Beldin
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...

I do not really snack at all, though if I do it is in aperhaps a shockingly inconvenience-food based way...

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

Urg! That's just nasty!
Mmmm.... Kipling and his exceedingly good cakes...

I eat Iced Gems and a bikkit normally.

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.

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

Usually. Sometimes more.
