Each year around E3, I tend to buy myself a few snacks I wouldn't otherwise buy for fear of a heart attack. One E3 staple are my Barking Dogs - grilled hot dogs wrapped in cheese slices and Ro-Tell, stuffed in a tortilla like a burrito with the ends wrapped, and grilled on a Foreman until nice and browned. Any particular foods you enjoy during the shows? Thinking this year I might change it up, but I haven't settled on something good yet. Maybe pinwheels. We'll see!
E3 2016

The twenty-second annual Electronic Entertainment Expo took place June 14-16, 2016 at the Los Angeles Convention Center in Los Angeles, California.
E3 Food Fight - your favorite snacks for coverage at home?
Its all about grazing for me cause it keeps me awake for the full twelve hours from midnight to midday. Usually I get coffee and biscuits, and some cheap ass tinned food.
Here it's called beer sausage, but imagine a really slim salami stick in various flavors. Either sugar free soda or a couple of alcohol free beers (because it's work week), maybe some energy drinks. Might make nachos or quesedillas. Or maybe I'll stay healthy and do none of those things and keep to tea, water and protein yoghurt with almonds and berries.
But I eat garbage so often that E3 isn't really anything special there.
Funnily enough I was also thinking pinwheels, as well as small steak fajitas and of course my favorite soda called Diet Dr Pepper
@dinosaurcanada: Diet Dr. Pepper's among my favorites. Kinda prefer Dr. Pepper Ten, but good luck finding that in most stores around here.
I usually go with half a litre of vodka. Seriously.
I believe you, because I do too.
@sparky_buzzsaw: Haven't had Ten in a while but I recall liking it, not as good as Diet or regular from a fountain though, too manly for me tbh
@dinosaurcanada: I hate that those commercials essentially ruined what was a great soda.
I bought some DiGiorno's tonight. I'm looking forward to that being in me.
One of my strongest memories from the first year I watched Giant Bomb's E3 nightly live show (2009 or 2010, I think) is hearing Ryan's laugh while I ate three bowls of mashed potatoes. I don't know why I ate that much, but I did, and now whenever I think about Ryan a potato-y taste envelops my throat. Maybe I'll eat some mashed potato for old times sake.
For the morning streams: either a bowl of cereal or some waffles (usually blueberry or buttermilk)
For the afternoon streams: pizza roles or a hotdog/sandwich thing or some chips with queso
For the night show stuff: Some takeout or microwaved pasta w/ sauce
Got some Cherry Coke Zero to go with it
@sparky_buzzsaw: That sounds amazing btw
@blackblade500: now replace those waffles with pancakes and that sounds like a real nice breakfast!
Let me tell you bout Fat Free Plain Greek Yogurt w/ a scoop of Vanilla Protein Powder, and some kind of high fiber cereal. Heaven.
