Snack Food...

I don't know if this is a Gamer thing or maybe it's just me, so I figured I'd ask and see what my fellow gamers have to say on it...

Have you ever played a game, say Tex for example, but not limited to Tex of course, and grabbed a snack, say Chips or maybe a fruit of some kind or something and then every time you played that game you found yourself craving that snack???

With Tex I find myself wanting Beef Jerky, when I was a teenager I ate Beef Jerky a couple times when playing it and then found myself always wanting it when I play... A game I had as a teenager called Silent Steel I found myself always eating or wanting Crab Seasoned Potato Chips, those search and find games I want Peanut M&Ms... Whenever on the Playstation I always seem to need Reese's Pieces around, I don't eat a whole lot, but I like to grab a few here and there while playing...

Anyone else find themselves craving certain things for certain games or other activities???

It's kind of that way with certain types of movies as well... Growing up my parents would pick age approperiate stuff, but it was almost always a Horror flick... Twice a month we would do this, have family movie night, most of the time my brother and I would pick Horror, sometimes we would opt for an outragous comedy... We always ordered Pizza, now it's hard for me to sit through a Horror movie without Pizza...

Okay you can either laugh at me or chime in with your own Snack Story...

When I was a kid, it was Pizza + pepsi + The Munsters reruns. I don't know why.
I can read any part of the Pandora or UAKM novels where Tex talks about eating at Louie's without grabbing a snack.

For some reason, the Tex games make me crave a lama.
It is just out of habit that you crave those things when playing certain games. I is your perception of it, you are used to eating beef jerky, so the mind tells you that you want it while playing.

My things is that when I am playing or just surfing the web, I start to chain smoke, which is not normal for me daily, but only when I am playing games or on the computer.

Hey there Christy, welcome to our community...

Yeah I realize it is out of habit, just figured more people did it, but I guess I was mistaken...

I use to do the Chain Smoke... The reason I found myself chain smoking was because I would lite it, take a drag or two and then it would sit there and burn out, so I would have to lite another because I never really got anything out of the one before it...

But I was able to put an end to that when my Son was born, I stopped smoking in the house altogether... Now I am down to only about 4 or 5 cigarettes a day, so I will hopefully be quitting over the next week or two...

The only time I snack is when surfing the internet.

I usually do that on Friday nights. Just decided to check the forum today cause I was adding a movie.

My wife always brings me a caramilk chocolate bar.

I don't find myself craving it though. It just kind of magically appears.

I never used to snack when i was younger either.

In fact, I would go without eating because I was so into whatever game I was playing.

Never became a habit I guess.

Hope you quit smoking baf. I quite a long time ago.
The only time I ever find myself smoking is when I am at a bar drinking.

I haven't been to bar drinking since my bachelor party which was almost a year ago.

And even before that, it is months and months in between.
I seriously wonder if i would even have the urge now if in that situation because ... I actually find it gross now.

That feeling comes after you have quite for a while.

Good luck Baf.

I have no doubt I'll quit... I quit last January to August and then that's when things with the wife started to get really rocky and bad, so I started again... I still haven't smoked as much as I use to... And now I'm down to about 5 a day give or take one or two... Shouldn't be much longer... I only smoked 3 on Monday I think it was Monday, might have been Sunday... My Birthday is this Friday, so maybe as a present to myself I'll make that my last Smoking day... lol But we'll have to wait and see, still some sticky stuff to go through with this divorce...
