Suggest ideas for food that gamers can eat on the fly.
I developed this idea. If you're at the computer playing an MMORPG and you get hungry and don't wanna spend alot of time in the kitchen making a meal, try this.
Take a pack of ramen noodles, remove the wrapper and eat it right there, uncooked. The taste is fine, plus it's dry so it absorbs fluid in your stomach making you feel fuller.
That's terrible.
I used to do that when I was 10, except I would smash the noodles up a little and season them with the chicken flavoring packet.
Personally, I prefer nuts and beef jerky as game snacks.
the crap spacemen eat
and beerhat with cough medicine attached
I actually would excuse myself for 15 mins and eat ramen at the least. Buttttt...eh whatever works haha. Ramen is the only thing i like to eat thats instant.
Dry ramen noodles.
Truely, you have one of the most unique, free thinking minds of our generation.
I don't eat. All I need is a big ol' Pepsi, and I'm set.
It's not like you burn much energy when you game anyway. I usually just gorge myself before and after and I'm set.
But a coke's fine.
Fremch bread pizzas. *makes one then goes back to guild wars*
Haribo Starmix, there easy to throw in your mouth and eat and arent greasy in any way. While crisps will make your hands loose grip and thats the most important thing when gaming.........
get my mum to make me a meal xD
Sandwiches. nutritionally balanced, easy to prepare, mess-free to eat while gaming. No sticky pawprints on the controller.
Coke etc are a bad idea, because you can spend hours sitting in front of a monitor, sipping that stuff slowly. Maximises your rate of tooth decay. Also, sugar+inactivity=weight gain and/or hyperactivity. Water is the best gaming beverage.
Don't you sometimes with that real-life food was like in-game food? Where you see a hamburger or, better yet, and entire roast chicken simply lying on the ground, then you devour it in a milisecond just by walking over it. It satisfies your hunger, and restores you to full health, even curing bruises and gunshot wounds.
That would rule.
Oasis is the god of drinks for games.....
Psh its all about pimpjuice xD (i ono how it goes elsewhere but my college sells em).
Cereal. Any type would really do. Just pop open the box and start digging. Not only is it OH-SO-Delish...but it is good for you also.
Small candy and drinks. I find it hard to eat anything that I can't just pop into my mouth, and anything that causes residue on your fingers is automatically out of the question, since that gets you keyboard/mouse/controller dirty.
Thats the last thing I would eat, To eat a Sandwich ( a good one with lettace and all ) You have to use boths hands to make sure that you dont get any bits and pieces on your lap. Plus you would have to pause the game. Last thing I would eat while playing a Fighting or racer.....Quote:

Eating just the plain block of Ramen noodles would technically be a lot healthier then cooking it with the seasoning powder since that is pure salt. Or you could be like me and eat condiments (Ketchup, barbecue sauce, Arby sauce, tabasco sauce)
I love uncooked noodles, with the salt. I don't eat it cooked or uncooked too often though because those things are loaded with fat.
Plain air popped popcorn is good, or dried fruit.
Oh God, yes.Quote:

Yeah dont use the powder in cooking ramen, its just monosodium gulmate and the bad stuff, actually can screw over so much of the sodium content. Put ramen in water and boil soup up. Cup noodles are a no no though since the noodles are fried and oiled beforehand.
