Do you tend to snack while you game?

If so, what kind of snacks are your favorites? Do you favor certain brands/items, or do you just go with whatever you have around the house?

I myself like to snack on pretzels and soda; Coke and Sierra Mist are my favorites with pretzels lately, I've only been drinking water, although anything but Pepsi will do.  I HATE Pepsi.

What about you?

Occasionally, I grab a pack of Chex Mix.

I like cookies, Keeblers Chocolate Chunk to be precise. And baked doritos. Unfortunately, the doritos get all over the controller and in the crevices so I try to avoid them while I am playing console games.

I'm aiming for a heart attack before 30.

In seriousness though, I usually don't eat anything. In fact I'm kind of the opposite of that picture. I'm not a vegetarian, but I only eat meat once every one to two weeks. I don't want to go completely veg, because I still like good meat and don't want to completely ween myself of it, otherwise you get sick when you eat it. Austin BBQ is too good to miss out on.

I like to have a Vitamin Water or one of the SoBe ones as a drink though.

EDIT: The only thing that is missing is a few slabs of scrapple.

Corona with lime, lately straight Ammareto, (bottle in the fridge has been sitting there forever) or a bottle of Aquafina.

I'm the opposite, I completely forget to eat while I'm gaming. Then hours later when I quit, I realize that I'm starving and debate whether I should eat something, even though it's well past midnight.

Maybe it's the southern in me, but that looks pretty darn tasty.

I've done that a couple of times. If I get really focused on anything I might forget to eat.

That's about the most delicious thing I've ever seen.  Look at all that bacon!

It's almost as big as the 12 egg bacon and sausage omelet I ate on a bet.  My tummy hurt so bad, but I just can't stop eating bacon.

Same here, though I do remember to drink alot of water.

On another note, where can I get one of those burgers, it looks so damn tasty. (yeah, I'm a huge carnivore)

If anyone wanted to know, that burger is served at a place called The Vortex in Atlanta. My friend just saw it on Man vs Food and was telling me about it...two fried eggs, four slices of American cheese, and five slices of bacon, with two grilled cheese sandwiches replacing the buns."
