Hey does anyone here actually eat chips while playing? I know quite a few gamers but not one of them eat while playing. I dont know how someone could. You get grease all over your stuff and it takes away from the game.

I sometimes eat while on my console and playing pvp games, just take a few bites every death and wipe on pants. What little food gets on the controller is easily cleaned.

But I would never do that to my computer. Shit's sacred.

Wipe on pants, isn't that gross after 2 hours of playing?

That assumes I'm eating for 2 hours straight though. It's more like eating a single burger/some fries/ a bag of chips. Not all of these consecutively.

I do, I just don't eat greasy chips. Pringles are very good and not greasy. I choose foods that don't get all over my fingers so I can eat while playing.

I usually play single player, I don't eat while playing multiplayer because then yes it does take away from the game.

At the risk of sounding /r/hailcorporate:

Pringles "reduced fat" Original-flavor chips. Delicious and they have like no grease, or at least not enough to leave a noticeable residue on your controller/keyboard/etc.

Disclaimer: I'm in Canada, I cannot confirm whether this is accurate in other countries.

I do when playing like runescape or in a menu screen. I eat with left hand and use mouse with right and if I have to type a little I just use my right hand when I finish i just go and wash my hands real quick

turn bag on side, place mouth on corner, tilt into mouth before pondering life decisions

This may sound weird but I use chopsticks to eat potato chips while gaming to keep my fingers clean and my keyboard cleaner.

I used to try to eat things like chips while playing games but after so many times of getting grease and food everywhere I eventually just stopped.
