Gamer Grub: A snack brand made for "gamers"

[BobYoMeowMeow]

Ganer Brub is a brand of snack mixes containing the vitamins and neurotransmitters gamers need to maintain a quick and agile mind for video games... unless if you only play JRPGS.

This is basically what the website said about these snacks
It's just the nutrition info of the vitamins and stuff...
skip if you want (which you should)

Think Fast Win More Gamer Grub is a great tasting snack mix packed with select vitamins and neurotransmitters supporting fast cognitive performance. Gamer Grub is scientifically formulated to power your core gaming systems for maximum gaming performance.

Specific component functions in Gamer Grub:

L-Glutamic Acid

L-Glutamic Acid is involved with synaptic plasticity together with nerve cell data input and output channels . The ion of Glutamic Acid is known as Glutamate. Glutamate is the most abundant excitatory neurotransmitter in the mammalian nervous system. Nerve impulses trigger the release and binding of glutamate among nerve cells.
Choline (as Choline Bitartrate)

Choline is needed for nerve cell structural integrity, signaling roles for cell membranes, and cholinergic neurotransmission. Neurotransmission is the electrical transmission and routing of data signals in the nervous system. Such data transmission is used to deploy muscle reactions. Choline is a basic element needed to produce neurotransmitters.
Vitamin A (as Betacarotene)

Visual data signals produced by the conversion of light into nerve impulses in the eye are highly dependent on Vitamin A. These nerve signals are then transmitted to your wetware’s CPU (a.k.a. brain) for translation into biological image data formats.

Vitamin E (as Acetate)

Vitamin E is an antioxidant that helps protect cell membranes. To reduce their energy load, toxins react with other chemicals in your body and interfere with normal cell functioning. Vitamin E minimizes your exposure and resultant cell damage caused by toxins in your body.
Vitamin B3 / Niacin (as Niacinamide)

The Vitamin B3 / Niacin plays an important role in maintaining muscle tone and promoting the health of the nervous system, eyes, and liver. Vitamin B3 / Niacin is important for normal vision.
Vitamin C (as Ascorbic Acid)

Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin, electron donor and antioxidant that is necessary for normal growth and development. Vitamin C is highly concentrated in the eye and brain nerve endings.
Magnesium

Magnesium ions are essential to basic nucleic acid chemistry and thus are essential to all cells of living organisms. Magnesium is found predominantly inside cells of body tissues and organs. Magnesium is needed for more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body.

BBQ Flavor
Official Description: A sweet & tangy blend of Smoked Almonds, BBQ Corn Nuts, Spicy Peanuts, Toffee Peanuts and Honey & BBQ Sesame Sticks.

Kotaku's comments: there is a strong aftertaste. It's a blend of sweet and spicy that doesn't work well.

Smores
Official Description: No campfire by your console? No problemo, just bust open a pack for a sweet and rich blend of Smores Bites, Marshmallow Chips, Graham Bites, and Chocolate Gems.

Kotaku's comments: It is really sweet. There are actual marshmallows instead of the dehydrated ones you find in cereals

The cat think that people would choose the smores over the BBQ
which would you prefer?

It's a good concept, but nah.

[Ketchup]

[starpaw7]

how do smores turn orange owo

[Chockeh]

It looks nasty.

[starpaw7]

how do smores turn orange owo

It was in an orange power like hot chocolate, but I found out it was really s'more flavor :cold:


Though why they chose that color, I can only assume because it was Disney :what:

[Remoraid]

They look nasty =/ . I don't think the smores is as nasty but still I won't buy them =/

[Hiccup]

Lol WoW players-I mean addicts will only eat this, just wait

[Hitaki]

If I were to eat it, I'd choose the smores. But who needs that crap D:<

Pika's got his own Game Fuel called Mountain Dew.

[Hiccup]

^Mountain Dew Voltage is the best!!!

Oh and Monster /not Dew fave

[Sleeperdial]

Slightly related but incredible true topic: Smor'z cereal is AMAZING.

[Hitaki]

^Mountain Dew Voltage is the best!!!

Oh and Monster /not Dew fave

Monster actually puts me into the zone for a whole day of playing FPS (By this I mean 8 hours straight). The reason why I don't drink Monster all the time is that sometimes it gives me so much energy that when I wake up the next day, that's when the crash finally decides to start taking place. I'll only drink Monster if there's serious gaming tournaments of serious business O:

[Compass]

I'm really into those nut snacks.
I feel like trying the BBQ flavor.

[BobYoMeowMeow]

Lol WoW players-I mean addicts will only eat this, just wait

Only dumb people will be into buying these
and
if they care about health, then they wouldn't already be drinking monsters, eating ramen, chips, pizza etc.

[Hiccup]

WoW addicts are dumb people. They sit with their home made computers and 8+ screens, having 10+ accounts to multi-client grind their accounts to/at 80

You don't like me ;(

Whats wrong with a custom built computer?



Anyway looks interesting. I assume it's made for hardcore FPS fans though. ._.

Even if I did play FPSs (more than on a rare occasion) I still wouldn't be interested in these really. Personally I would rather have a full meal.

[Cannibal]

This stuff looks gross.


I bet it's actually really unhealthy.

[BobYoMeowMeow]

Brad is just jealous because he doesn't know how to build a computer
It's just like Legos.

[Kazuni]

The BBQ one looks like those plasticky nut/cracker snacks that come in a pack.

Smores looks better but still kinda cheap lookin'.

[Chockeh]

Smores don't look as bad, but still looks like it would be horribly bad for your health.

[Mrlucky77]

There are two other flavours apparently.

Do people play so hardcore that they don't have 5 minutes to sit down and get a decent meal?
Seriously.

[Mrlucky77]

Seriously.

Yes, they do.


Or maybe they're in like some kind of huge boss fight. Like g8 dragon or a WoW raid.

[Intex]

How long do raids last in WoW :o?
Even then, you can just prepare some fruit and drinks to eat while raiding.

[Infamy]

They tend not to think about those things... nor do they like to get up, walk to the kitchen, and get food.

This is non-perishable food that can be kept by the computer. Infinitely more convenient =P

psssh
bosses in Final fantasy 11 takes over 18 hours at the minimum

[Osayidan]

I wouldn't even feed this to a stray dog.
