Does one have to be a programmer to respond? Pepperoni and sausage pizza.

Well OK you don't have to be a programmer just your favourite food whilst computing then.

Anything that is close to being bite-sized and can be wiped off my hands quickly: Pizza rolls, those mini-donuts, pizza works (but it has to be cold. If it's hot, it's too sloppy.), and sandwiches.

Cold pizza is nice!! :D
As my keyboard is on a keyboard tray, I can eat anything as long as I push the keyboard tray in... mostly eat cereal and sandwiches upstairs at my desk setup.

Delicje szampańskie. Will settle for other E.Wedel products if necessary.

+1 for E.Wedel products - especialy plain old dark chockolate - the best one on the market.

When coding for long hours (and I mean long - from 8:00 am untill 'it's done', so mostly until the crack of dawn) it doesn't matter WHAT you eat, but only IF you eat. When hungry I can eat anything from the fridge - providing that it isn't old enough to escape from the plate ... .

Being Gluten Intolerant, I find myself a bit limited, no pizza (warm or cold) for me, but, what can beat M&M's :D Either Plain or Peanut - no mess on the keyboard either.
They do tend to bounce off the keys a bit, only to be found later buried in the sofa cushions :oops:

No, Cadbury Bournville is the best dark chocolate you can buy! :D But then again, being British, I would obviously have to think that!

That may be, but Cadbury does not have much market over here (I'm sure that is about to change once the merger / buy out happens), so as of now, us Yank's are stuck with MARS or Hershey snacks :)

That said, I will admit to also enjoying honey roasted peanuts while programming, just need to wipe the keys now and then and also use some compressed air to blow the nasty little bits our from under the keys :wink:
