Favorite Computer Snacks?

[uraniumrooster]

Title says it - What do you munch on while you get your EQ on?

Personally I tend toward healthy and tidy so myself and my keyboard don't get trashed. Lately I've been digging sugar snap peas, cherries (a fruit stand near my place sells big baskets for $1, it's awesome), and yogurt.

Back in High School when I played though it was chips, candy and jolt cola ;)

[rioisk]

peanutus ftw

[Itchybottom]

Wasabi peas, definitely.

[Ripcord]

I too switched from mt dew and microwave pizza, now I do hummus w pita , baby carrots, grapes,protien smoothies.if I know im in for a weekend game session, ill go buy beans, rice, mixed vegie, hotsauce, flour tortillas and make up a big mix of it in a tuppaware thing and just throw a scoop of that in a soft shell in the microwave for 30 second soft tacos while grinding :)

Nothing beats Papa John's pizza.

Seriously, we should put a #pizza command that pops up a window with Papa Johns pizza in-game. I'd totally love that, and I think the playerbase would too.

Only reason SOE failed at this years ago is because they chose pizza hut. F pizza hut.

[Droop]

Lol contact papa johns and see if you can set something like this up! ;). By setup a custom P99 order pizza page.

Would be nice to have a /pizza (or #pizza) command again though!

[Atennu]

Papa johns is good, but im 40 mins from the nearest and they wont deliver :(.

My favorite snack tho is sunflower seeds. I spit while poopsocking all day and night.

Green Giant mixed veggie steamable bags


kashi and i can put away 4-5 entire bags during a good grind.


edit: Morningstar Chicken Nuggets also!

[Crampers]

Doritos

[Aarone]

Nuts, mostly - or hummus (which I'll eat on anything, including w/a spoon, if nothing else is handy).

Pizza is the ultimate, though, you're correct. Papa John's??? I weep for you poor, unfortunate people. Living in the New York/New England area, I have soooooo many options for good, fresh pizza house pizza. Those who also live in the area know what of I speak.

A question though - hot pizza, or cold slices on the next day? Nothing beats a hot cup of coffee, a cold slice of pizza, and an early morning camp. ;)

I lived in New England for years and enjoyed the pizza house pizza you speak of, however Papa Johns is the ultimate franchise pizza and the best most people can get :D

Best snacks while video gaming are those you can just keep popping without fear of becoming grossly overweight or damage your health. When I am playing a game on the computer I will prep a snack if it's for few hours, or make a small dish. Some things I enjoy:

- baby carrots, cantaloupe, watermelon, bananas, hard boiled eggs (no yolk).
- in the morning I like to make a nice egg white omelet, dry whole wheat toast and coffee with a bit of cream no sugar before I play EQ or any game
- I also keep a gallon jug of water next to monitor all the time, as general rule I try to drink gallon of water a day

I used to do the whole pizza thing, cans of coke etc., but since I began healthier snacking while gaming over year ago I've lost weight and feel better in general. I would definitely advise a similar change to any other pizza/dorito gamers.

Will you come to my house and cook me all of that :P

[Kraftwerk]

See that's the genius of small healthy snacks, most of what I described you can prepare in anywhere from 5 seconds to maybe 5 minutes. Baby carrots are a big favorite of mine, very low cal but high fiber so you can keep popping them and it'll fill you up fairly quickly so you're not even that hungry. Also drinking lots of water will help keep you feeling full as well.

Before an evening game session ill make myself a good skirt steak med-well with mashed sweet potatos and some spinach. If I've had a big lunch ill settle for a bowl of healthy cereal. With the steak I also enjoy a nice belgian beer unfiltered ;)

I don't live in NYC. I live in a craphole where the best pizza place doesn't deliver. Screw that.

Beer and weed and whatever food i can actually find in my house.

[Daywolf]

Coffee. Otherwise I don't eat snack foods, just meals.

I actually stop playing to eat. Maybe something is wrong with me.

[Extunarian]

I'm another member of the soda/chips/pizza crowd turned veggies/water/juice crowd. If only my metabolism could return to 1999 as well.

Oh...and beer. I still drink too much beer.

[girth]

Lemon yogurt.

Gotta agree with the Wasabi peas! I also make seasoned greenbeans and red potatoes together. And the drink of choice is Blue (lo-carb) Monster energy drink. The Nector of the gods!
