Coffee, even cigars, yet no food for me.

Good coffee, and bananas, do it for me.

Are you asking what we snack on while coding, or what we eat in general? What I eat in general is mostly a healthy diet of whole foods. Staples include:

  • Tea
  • Coffee
  • Oatmeal
  • Peanut butter
  • Cheese
  • Chicken
  • Veggie burgers
  • Frozen Fruit
  • Frozen vegetables
  • Greek yogurt (full fat, of course)
  • Almonds (ideally cinnamon roasted)
  • Spiced Rum
  • Scotch

I'm not a big snacker anymore, but crackers and dry cereal (without milk) would be my go-to snacks while gaming or coding. I like salty things, sweet not so much. :)

My favourite is datteri with roasted almonds.
I'm not sure about the English term for datteri which is the fruit of the Phoenix plant

and dry cereal
