    Eating while gaming isn't too hard. For RPGs, you can just take time to eat while wading through text, and for everything else, well... there will always be some point where you can grab a bite before the game continues.

    Or you could buy a feedbag and tie it to your face. That's what I do.

    I generally don't eat while gaming. As much as I would like to, the effort outweighs the benefits.

    I only eat when i'm hungry so if i'm hungry while I play a game I just pause, make something to eat, come back and walk very slowly in the game while eating. The thing I always have whenever i'm playing games though is water... I love water.

    For some reason, gaming MAKES me hungry. I'm the kind of guy who will pause the game, go start to prepare food (like ramen most likely) and forget the waters on the burner and hear it boil over because I forgot. Or I'll toss a burrito in the microwave and forget its there for half an hour, then remember, go retrieve it only for it to be room temperature and need further microwavage.

    I find the best foods for eating while playing are gummi bears (I don't know how you eat gummi bears, but i try not to slobber all over my hands and get them sticky, Gummi bears arent that sticky unless water is applied to them), pretzels (those big grains of salt arent hard to brush off your finger if one happens to stick to your skin). Sandwiches and bowls of cereal are decent. You can take a bite when the disc loads or while text is going.

    The following is a list of bad snacks I composed because of personal trials. If you can do it, great for you, Pro. I can't and i can't fathom most people can.
    BAD SNACKS:
    Pizza (greasy!)
    Cheetos (that cheesy stuff gets all up in the controller.)
    Doritos (see Cheetos)
    Steak (if it requires 2 hands its a no go. You ALWAYS need one hand on the X button. Also, if you eat steak as a snack, I now dub you Uncle Rico)
    Pancakes (if you have the time to prepare pancakes, you have the time to eat them properly. If someone went through the trouble of making you pancakes, show them respect by pausing the game and eating them properly. Oh, wash your mitts afterward because syrup is stickier than any other substance known to man.)
    Cereal straight from the box. (Every guy loves this snack but its a no-no for gamers. Most cereals are either sticky, crumby or have sugar on them that get your hands all gooey. Avoid this treat at all costs!)
    Chocolate (Dispite the slogan, it DOES melt in your hand)
    Starburst (the 2 hands rule with unwrapping, and they somehow tend to make your hands stick, no matter how hard you try.)
    Goldfish/Cheez-Its (they get tiny crumbs on your hands and soon you'll notice the seem on your controller has turned orange. Not good on the controller.)
    Potato Chips of ANY sort (They all got grease, and even though pringles has less grease, they have powdered salts that will infiltrate your controller and we don't want that, do we.)
    Popcorn. (good for movies, not for gaming. Salt and butter are deadly to your controller, not only does the butter slimey up your paddle, but the salt will get in the grooves by the buttons and its ALL over..ok, not all over but avoid doing that)

    Basically, dont eat lightly salted, crumby, cheesy, sticky, greasy food. Good foods are foods that you can eat with one hand, and dont require you fingers to actually touch the food. If they do, make sure that if anything that gets on them can easily be wiped off by your trouser leg.

    Fruits can be juicy. Most berries and citrus are too jiucy and sticky. Pears, Apples and Grapes would be the best fruits to eat. Bananas are ok, but they can be menacing with the required 2 hands to peel.

    I think you`re right, but you can`t make yourself busy in two things.
