Heh. A wise game store manager will collaborate with a local restaurant/take-out place that sells relatively healthy food. Encouraging a healthier diet amongst the customers means less game-store funk.
Occasionally we have beer, but it is more often soda. Chips(crisps), and cookies are pretty common too. Usually we don't get around to playing till 7:00, but if we have a really big game ahead of us (or 2+ games to get through), we'll start earlier and Pizza is really the meal of choice in that case. We should probably start trying to eat better (we're not getting any younger), but it has been this way for years, so change will come hard... probably just easier to keep gorging ourselves on junk food.
I'm too protective of my models to get the little guys greasy, crusty or any other texture that can be imparted by snackage. Whether for P&M or gaming, I'll usually stick to liquids (breaking for meals if it's a long session, in which case cheap and crappy Chinese takeout is the old D&D standby), although I can see something like pretzels being a pretty harmless snack, mess-wise.
Drink depends on my mood and what's on hand (which is determined primarily by the fluctuating size of the perpetual void in my wallet). Sometimes it's coffee, sometimes soda, sometimes water, sometimes beer, sometimes liquor... Personal favorites are probably gin and tonic or beer (something a bit lighter, usually, that can be casually sipped over a long session - I can't split my attention between Duvel and drybrushing).

the % means percentage of Milk fat. 2%=2 percent milk fat.
warning, the lower the fat the worse the milk will taste.

For me, it's the usual chips and pizza and Chinese food. Of course, it also includes coffee after we spent a game sleeping in between each others turns

Ill agree. Keep your cheetos fingers away from my minis. Drinks are ok, as long as they arent on the game table.
Now when I do D&D (or any RPG) we usually bring a bunch of snacks for during the game, and at least one break for food and that varies...could be fast food, pizza, whatever everyone is in the mood for. RPGing for 8 or so hours tends to make people hungry.

2%...so nasty, like white water. Whole milk (with chocolate) or no milk at all.

I have had little success whilst under the influence of Alcohol. I think my worst double defeat was at the hands of "Jägerbombs", I was dropping sentences rather than blast templates. I had no idea what I was doing and I lost a fair few dice and minis. I still don't know who won, dirty Creed trick to ply me with "Turbojäger". NEVER PLAY 40KAT A FRIENDS HOUSE WITH ALCOHOL!

Cheezles
These four are the remainder after years of researching my group and trying new things on them. These four were the ones that were wanted the most, so I just buy them now. Add to that Coke... and... Coke. Yeah. I've seen the guys go through 16 litres of the stuff in a day.

Quoted for Truth and Justice.
Soo many of them around FLGS/GW stores...
Though I personally get tired of their dribble, and I like Wienerschintzel (just wait, someone will make a gay joke outta this) so Chilli Dogs are always good (I try to eat in the middle of games, so I don't spill nuffin').
Otherwise, if I'm not at the FLGS, I'll order up a pizza, or make some hotpockets and some Dr. Pepper. Though I'll usually eat one of those Hagen Daaz ice cream bars if I'm really hungry (and no, I don't share them, =p)
Once though, at a local GW, I saw a kid with peperoni slices. No pizza, no sandwich, just peperoni slices.
Some people play to win, some people play for fun. Me? I play to kill toy soldiers.
