Reader Discussion: What’s The Best Food Reference In A Video Game?

It’s almost Thanksgiving, and that means food. Lots of food. Turkey, stuffing, potatoes, pumpkin pie – if you like eating, this is the holiday for you. 

But we’re not the only ones who look forward to some grub. Our video game heroes need sustenance as well. So we’re asking you to tell us about your favorite food-related moments, appearances, and situations in games. 

Maybe you have fond memories of a certain wizard who “needs food badly” in Gauntlet? Or perhaps Chell’s unending search for cake in Portal is more your thing. And what exactly is in those mushrooms that Mario is always eating? 

Wrack your brain, delve into your gaming memories, and tell us in the comments below about the food that was more than just a meal in one of your favorite (or least favorite) video games.
