I was curious to see what everyone likes to drink or snack on while playing D&D. I grew up on Mountain Dew and Doritos during sessions, usually with pizza if we playing through dinner (which we almost always did).

I love that the food is themed!
Saw a post a long time ago about someone using gummy worms and bears etc as their minis, and players get to eat the ones they kill.
Food for thought. Literally.
My main crew typically goes with vodka and sushi on our biweekly session.
When we have a younger/new player we go with seltzer and mixed veg/fruit/nuts.

Vodka is the typical option cause you can take it near, on the rocks, or used with a mixer. People know their limits at this point and can adjust safely.
As far a sushi we used to rotate getting takeout, but overtime we started to default to sushi. There tends to be enough variety to mix up the type of sushi each week, it keeps people from getting too full/hungry, and typically is contained enough to fit with all our play supplies.
Vodka‽ If you can find shochu (not soju), please try it once instead of vodka. It pairs nicely with sushi too.
It definitely pairs better than vodka, but vodka is a staple in the liquor setups regardless of where we have a session.
Soda or another liquid that is bad for me. For food, I was generally in charge of food so if I made food, it was themed! I have the Song of Ice and Fire cookbook, and when we played that system I made food from there.
Twix dipped in Fritos chile cheese dip.
For posterity, which class do you play?
Whatever the class, this person is a goblin. It’s the only thing that makes sense.
Our table always drinks coffee during a session regardless of time of day. As for snacks, whatever looks appealing from the local dollar store.

Cheese balls. Giant tubs of cheese balls.
Chex mix is a classic!
Sweet, Salty, Savory. It’s a winning combo. I’d keep drinks as a BYOD situation, aside from maybe having one or two 2 liters of soda or something.
One of the perks of being older is we smoke or bbq to have a meal prior to the session. We’ve had brisket, chili, smash burgers, tri tip, brats, etc.
Oh very nice!
Roleplaying whiskey. Its just a bottle of whiskey that we all drink when we play
Often snacks like chips n dip, dinner varies, pizza or some of us will cook a stew or something. Most often we have beer or seltzer water. But we’re all in our 30s.
Online VTT player: I usually don’t eat when playing, almost always have a beer/wine/G&T.
Cherries!
We mostly drink beer or shandy, and we use caps as minis, you can have multiple colors for teams and write letters/numbers inside to identify them But it requires to drink before any fight happens, so we always keep some stored from previous session, just in case For the food, thins that can easily be shared so pizzas like you mention, crepes, or raclette in winter
