Uhm... good question... Maybe... Let's wait for a few more comments, then I'd say either can the vote and those inclined can post their answers, or vote for the answers most suitable for...Screw that, I took the poll out. I messed up the number of avaliable votes anyway, and you're right parduz, it's too complicated for a poll. And in doing so, I messed up the post sequence, so... here's the original post:

We usually eat after game sessions (around 1-2am), going to a bakery which is working by night to make pastries for the morning... so we eat hot pastries for some cents.... fantastic. Sometime someone brings on some cake or pretzels (to celebrate a birthday, or a new car, or a new kid ) and so we eat and drink DURING the game. ( Dominic: voilà )

I think I didn't get enough sleep last night, since I'm dumbfounded at how you did that... Anyway, mille grazie!

My group usually eats THEN we game. I don't want pizza grease all over my terrain or figures! My lovely wife has in the past whipped up a HUGE smorgasboard of food and we would take a break, and them continue palying AFTER we eat. We do have a blue liquid (usually Powerade, cool-aid or the like)... we refer to it as "Lum." That was a drink from a SW RDG game we played like 20 years ago, and my friend Luke was the first to taste it. Once his character regained consiousness he started to drink it all the time to build up an immunity to it... We have had sessions (when we were younger...) where we made "mixed drinks" using cool-aid, chocolate whipped topping (bad idea... NO wonder it was on sale), and artificial rum flavoring. We still laugh about that crazy night of 32 hours of gaming... Oh, to be young and stupid again...

Maybe if your wife was really cool at cooking and stuff, she could make ginger bread men for you to game with and you could eat the casualties or parts of, or perhaps it is still wrong to play with your food no matter how old you are!

Besides, speaking from experience, making gingerbread men at mini scale would be both a pain and not worth the bite . But maybe to use as a representation for wounds taken... Then again carving the likeness of a hero out of a steak and applying ketchup if they get bloodied might... err... Did anyone say you had to be young to be stupid? To answer my own question, my group usually comes up with at least one drink or foodstuff fro every region they go to, based on the self-imposed idea that they can sell exotic beverages to a bar in Sigil. Sometimes when we're mixing drinks we try to emulate some of the ideas, but usually it doesn't work (seeing how these beverages tend to change color or have weird viscosity. Once, they invented a whole meal native to a country they wanted to get into, talking the guard into believing that they were actually ambassadort on a secret mission to find out why this special dish tasted so good. It even worked. The next week I tried to cook what they had come up with, and they said it was fine, but they always say what the DM wants to hear, so... Since we usually drink mead (or spiced wine, or beer) when gaming, we don't need special terms for that, altough they have been known to name special kinds of beer, alwasy bickering about how high elves have no sense of taste and dwarves would drink anything if only you told them it would make their beards more filthy.
