Ridiculous 'gamer' snacks intended to be scoffed without dirtying your keyboard and mouse. Or, your joypad.

Oh, and if you're curious, this is apparently what it looks like. Not unlike the things floating in the pan of a men's public toilet.

ANYWAY... what to your mind is obviously better, cheaper, more widely available and less ridiculous than Gamer Grub? Which is to say: What do you munch on whilst gamering?

-Pringles
-grapes
-nuts (Sainsway's do a lovely mix of cashews and macadamias, but that's just one suggestion)
-an actual sammich (filling as per your preference)
-hard to unwrap fudge (if you're Grim...)
-olives
-cheese
-crisps/Doritos/whatever that's not Pringles nor taxed as leniently
-chocolate
-sweets
-hard boiled eggs
-bananas
-slices of pear or apple

Gosh... just my list so far and already it's vastly more healthy and cheaper than dessicated chemically reconstituted dust mite abdomen.

Beer and cigarettes.

I worry what brands you buy if you munch either of those.

Penny Arcade are also unconvinced.

Tinned fruit is convenient and lasts for ages.

Beer & fags (but I have to go into the garden to smoke).

or

A pint of tea & a huge bar of Cadbury's dairy milk chocolate.

Um - anything you like, just use a fork? Who exactly spills their food over their keyboard when eating?

*Raises hand*

But then I can spill anything just about anywhere.

Today I had toast with cheese and wholegrain mustard.

And now vodka.

Vodka on toast?

Hmm, nothing usually, but in the past...

Custard Creams
Brie with sliced baguette
Olives & bits of black bomber cheddar
Maynard Wine Gums
Grapes
Clementines
French bread and Bousin
Jaffa Cakes
Quarter pound assorted toffees

And sometimes a nice red wine or single malt whiskey.

Gamer Grub can fuck off, the contemptible 'yur speshul spod' snacks.
