    What is the Perfect Snack While Gaming?
    We have all been in this situation: You just bought the new hit videogame everybody has been dying for. You play it nonstop for hours. As you play it, you slowly become aware that you haven't eaten anything since you picked up the controller. You are not willing to stop playing, so you finally decide to eat and play at the same time. You need something to fill you up, yet it must be convenient so not to interrupt your game. What is the best snack to eat when gaming?

    When I use to game like that I normally just went with pizza rolls. Pop them in the microwave for however much time. Run back to the controller. Forget about them, 30 minutes later, you remember you made food, run in there grab them, go back to playing. Grab one as you go, nice bite size snack with fast preparation time.

    I'm not a big fan of hot pockets. They are delicious, but I hate it when you bite into one and you get a string of cheese which you have to keep on pulling out and out and out until it finally breaks off. You try to swallow it, but its so long that it gets stuck and you start choking on it so you grab whatever part is left of it in the back of your mouth and start pulling it out of your throat. After pulling it out for like 5 minutes, you decide there's no way to eat that string of cheese without cutting it up. Way too much effort for one little hot pocket

    If you like mustard, and carrot sticks... try it!! It sounds gross, but I swear it's delicious!

    Mustartd on fries is delicous also! When it's group gaming I like to have Dorritos and Cottage Cheese because it kicks and despite being messy I do not have to handle a controller because it is switching.

    I don't eat while gaming as often as I used to. I usually just eat things like Mentos or something when I do - something that doesn't really require getting your hands too dirty or anything like that. I love drinking frozen mango juice in the summer though. Man, I wish I had some here right now...

    Also Mizel, I'll have to try carrot and mustard... it sounds interesting. Sure it may sound a little yuck at first, but I often mix odd foods (usually mustard with some other random ingredient) to see if it actually turns out tasty. And it couldn't be any worse than raw broccoli (nothing I've ever tasted has been). Also, is that Elvira in your sig?

    Elvira's awesome :P It turned out pretty good. I'm not too big a big fan of raw carrot, but the mustard did as good a job as peanut butter for cutting out some of the raw carroty flavor.

    Also, since everybody's talking about nachos, they're awesome. They go good with plenty of different things, especially cotty cheese and sour cream.
