What type of food do you eat while gaming?

[BiggusGeekus@Work]

Beef jerky is the current favorite.

Though it's kind of expensive so I'm thinking about making my own.

I generally bring a couple of Dews, or something else equally caffeinated. Sometimes I bring something unhealthy to snack on, like candy bars or jelly beans.

I'm in two games right now: the DM's wife in the first game is a great cook, and frequently makes things like turkey apple sausages wrapped in pancakes, chips with homemade salsa, etc. For the other game, we usually just order a pizza or two, since everyone is on different eating schedules.

I usually bring coke, and during one session I brought cans instead of 2-liter bottles. We players were hushed as we sheepishly explained our failure to keep someone alive to our characters' superiors, and BAM! the DM swatted an empty coke can across the room! He still can't find it and assumes it's behind a bookcase somewhere, but after that I make sure it's 2-liters from now on. We also have chips, but at least a chip bag will hit a wall softly and just make a crumpling sound.

Earlier years and now

In our earlier years (early 80's) it was Dew, Dew with some Doritos (all flavors) thrown in for good measure.

Now whoever is hosting makes a main dish from chili, shredded beef, chicken enchiladas, personal pizzas, or something else. Sides include baked Doritos, water and or Snapple.

Later and good eating,

Normally for dinner we will order pizza but rotate from some of the more popular pizza places to some of the locally owned and better tasting pizza's.
We also all go in on a couple sub rings or the rare chinese take out places.

And from time to time, my wife, who also plays in the campaign will cook or we will have a BBQ prior to the game.

As for snacks, we all have our own tastes. On a normal game night we will have cookies, nuts of all kind, popcorn, chips, chips & salsa, and lots of soda... Mountain dew, coke, ginger ale, diet coke, and sprite....

I think I covered everything,

We all eat our own thing with pizza, subs, and fast-food (A&W, Taco Hell) being somewhat popular. There's also chips/dip/salsa & coke, of course, and sometimes people get funky with chinese take-out.

Well, we only ever order from the one pizza place, Luigi's, and go pick it up, because neither Pizza Hut or Domino's deliver to my friend's or mine own house. And the other local pizza place, it'd cost too much to feed us(we'd be dropping like 60+ each week on food, with the tip).

Most of the time, it's pizza or Chinese for us, since it's what delivers. Sometimes we'll grab something take out from another restaurant, or a fast food place; and rarely one of us will cook something for the whole group. Just this Sunday while we were having a shareholders meeting followed by playtesting session, Kent, a guy who works behind the scenes at LRGames, tried his new marinated fajitas recipe. 'twas wonderful.

The ultimate gaming food

Pretzel Rods......you can even poke people with them.

We normally eat before we game and only have Doritos and dips and drinks during the game.
