"Snack Gaming"

Since Ive given up smoking, I've noticed that I have a lot more free time during gameplay than I used to...

As a result I've started to nibble the odd snack item in between bouts of gameplay action... and to help me chew through problems....

However... I'm after some snack based advice...

Does anybody else munch through game-time? ...

Are there any reccomended food stuffs? ...

and are there any eating tips? ...

(I'll often much on Pringles... but theres always the problem of swiftly cleaning away salt residue)

Any help?

May i be so bold as to sugest not eating at your computer or console? It is very easy to get oil or stickyness onto your keyboard/mouse/joypad/controller and this mucks up what you are doing. Save the snacks till afterwards or pause/eat/clean yourself off the continue.

A little bit of alcohol (not too much) definately improves the gameplayer's performance on action games. But if you drink too much, the pixels start to merge, and well, ya stuffed.
My advice is this:
Action Games - play standing up, chew gum and wear shades.
Adventure games - Play lying down with head proped, if you smoke, smoke, if you don't, eat nuts.

Apparantly lemon keeps you alert, so try sucking a lemon. Marijuana heightens your senses no end, so thats good too (although it can be hard to control your movements when you're stoned solid)

That's actually a very facist point of view, and can be construed as racism. So stop it.

Just buy a console and ditch the PC.
