It's funny, because it was probably his wife doing so. Which means he had to specifically go ask her to slap him, cause he's trying to film a video and there's this one scene...
Watching this from Europe got me thinking we should have an international dnd table where each country brings their own snacks. We don't even have double stuffed oreos where I am 😂
I like how he's like Player: "chocolate?" DM: "no kills dogs" Player: "fruit cup that has grapes" note: grapes are super deadly for dogs much more than chocolate.
point 3 is the most important bc one time i got in session and someone brought an orange and i had to stop them before they peeled it and made my throat swell
Not happening. My friend always rolls high for deception, and I always roll low on perception leading to him putting the carefully unwrapped, now empty, rewrapped candy wrapper back into the communal bowl and me having to reach in for a second time.
I DM for my nieces and nephews at their grandparents house. So usually it's pizza from a local favorite or their grandmother cooks them something special because of a high reputation points.
@@timesthree5757 wow there's a lot to unpack there and I think I'm not sufficiently certified to handle those therapy needs, I can have you admitted though if you would like.
One time, in a zombie campaign my friend made strawberry filled rice krispie treat "brains" for us to eat. I think that's the winner right there. Besides, everyone knows the real snack danger zone is the drinks...
My go-to is Twizzlers licorice. Most people seem to like it, not expensive, doesn't make a mess, easy to hold, easy to find in most gas stations/convenience stores. Just make sure to put any leftover in a ziplock bag so they don't dry out.
Plus they’re quiet to chew. Chips are one of the worst snacks because they’re loud, get cheese dust all over fingers and crumbs all over the table and papers.
Back in Ye Olden Days of 2.5, we couldn't afford minis so we used different candies and gummies for enemies and the rule was whoever got the death blow got to eat it XD I have never seen people fight over death blows before or since
@@musechan7069 Healer tax, you must cut the enemy you down in half if you expect healing or buffs for that session. Players might also buy life insurance so that a Cleric is obligated to save the money and the spell slot for revive, but you forfeit combat candy for a whole month IRL or you have to give the cleric a tenner.
Next session I'm making the party fight snack monsters. Meaning monsters that are giant versions of snacks. Gummy bears, jolly ranchers, Doritos, an ooze made of cola and a gargantuan sized piece of pizza. Would have had the party face them last night but they spent so much time RPing that we didn't get to any combat.
I would definitely put googly eyes & pipe cleaner paws on a soda can to turn it into a monster. I'm totally stealing the snack monster idea & rewarding the players w/ the snacks themselves. Kill a Swedish Sea Monster? Get the Swedish Fish on the table.
As my group got older, we've gradually shifted from gas station candy, chips & pop towards things like chorizo, snazzy bakery pastries, high end cheese, wine, home brewed mead . . . basically as we got more money most of us became foodies.
It doesn't matter what the snack is, what matters is your players continue bringing offerings to the DM for hopes that theirs might gain favor over the other, and might even see the DM's mercy one fateful day. Pizza.
I’m the snack bringer of our group and I bring a fruit tray, veggie tray, 2 bite brownies, giant bag of M&M’s and all dressed chips. I am apparently doing DnD snacks wrong lol
I was the dinner bringer. I would bring a crockpot full of whatever - buffalo chicken dip, chili, cheddar broccoli soup with a bread bowl... and yeah having a full meal did cause the session to pause, but that just means we picked back up in a half hour ready to go!
I had a long term dm a player in a campaign with my family, and we brought out vegetables and fruit and he was shocked and thankful because no one brings that stuff and it was a nice change of pace.
Rofl!! When I could afford to bring snacks to my games I always brought a large cheese and cracker platter. I figured it was moderately healthy, relatively mess free (cracker crumbs won't kill your character) and best of all, it was bread, meat and cheese, so it reminded me of mini DND rations 😂 Otherwise I'd bring chips. I always brought a few types of soda though lol. Cream soda became a favorite of mine after a while though. I don't drink alcohol a lot, so the bubbly golden soda made me think of mead (aesthetically, in the right glass that is)
One DM that I played with used Starburst candies as enemies. If you kill it, you eat it. He'd apply a little label sticker and write numbers on them to indicate which one was which. Also, the wrapper ensures that it's clean, even after being on the gaming table and being labeled. Gummy bears? More like rubber bears! Have you ever met someone who can chew one? You might as well gnaw on the DM's car tires.
My go to seems to be a bottle of water ... When I once GM'd for a new group in person, they had a bunch of snacks and things prepared, it was a really cool experience! Of course I graciously accepted a selection of snacks, set it aside to run the session, and never got to eating any of it. It was a good game.
Only problem with it is if you need vegetarian/vegan gummies. Those can be a pain to get. Also the gummies can melt and get sticky if you touch them too much.
@@Merilirem eh can always swap 'em out for a less sticky candy than like starbursts or toosties rolls, or whatever other piece of candy people like. Gummy bears just add a face to the monster lol
I played in-person before Covid, now we're online. When we were in-person, the guy who owned the house we played at would have either a bowl of trail mix or veggies for us on the table, sometimes both (carrots and ranch are so damn good). Then, we would break for pizza for lunch after a few hours. Worked out really well, and I miss those days...
At my High School’s DND club, I’m pretty sure I’m the only one there who brings snacks, specifically for myself. My snack of choice? Whatever I can get .
Wow... the group I used to play with were apparently fancy. Two young married couples (my partner and I, and our DM and his wife), and we used to do homemade food pot luck, and actually have a proper sit down dinner for about half an hour to an hour as a mid-session break. We had everything from cajun pasta with collard greens, to homemade chili, roast chicken, and bbq ribs. We used to take a walk together to go get pizza from a small local pizzeria on occasion too, but the home cooked meals were the big hits.
I actually like healthy stuff like carrots or cucumber the most. Chop them up and then dip them into herb cream cheese. You dont make a mess and you dont feel like shit afterwards, mentally for eating bad food and physically by eating way to much chips or chocolate and feel like throwing up afterwards. But lets be honest. Most of the time its jung food at the table and we all love it.
Honestly our group brings whatever either for themselves or to share. Although on special events we feast like kings bringing a potlucks worth of junk foood!
Best snack is honestly not gummy bears, or candy for that matter. It is bite sized sandwich cubes. Variety in flavor, healthy with the right ingredients, can still be used for the enemies so players can nom on one after a kill, but it also avoids spiking your blood sugar and you can cater to multiple people's tastes without making anyone feel left out. If anyone has a better argument for another snack, I'd love to hear it.
Gummies are a great idea but have... troubling knock-on effects. DM: OK, so you killed the goblins, good job, eat your spoils. Barbarian: ... hmm... still hungry...Wizard! Wizard: um, yeah? Barbarian: You still have a few spells available, right? Wizard: ...yes? A few magic missiles, a couple of scorching rays, a Summon Monster or two- Barbarian: Summon Monster. Do it now. Wizard: why? Barbarian: Because I'm still hungry. DM: You know you don't get XP for this, right? Barbarian: RELEASE YOUR SWEET TREATS TO ME!
As the snack bringer may I address the missed concerns: The DM likes X, player A likes Y, Player B is allergic to soy which is in both X and Y, and bread, and chocolate. You need a snack to offer the non-players living in the house, and nobody but the snack-bringer thought about lunch. (It's a hot cooked chicken from the supermarket, a packet of mixed salad, a loaf of the DM's favorite bread and a packet of the only brand of wraps that doesn't contain soy and it took me two weeks to work that out.) Being the snack bringer is hard work dude.
For dnd sessions I’ll make a tavern style beef stew, chicken and dumplings, some form of dessert and like four sides. We usually have it all ate by the time we get done but my players have full bellies and are happy
When I play, I bring smoothies Healthy, it’s a drink so no chewing at a bad time, healthy, so no sugar rush at a bad time, you don’t crunch so loud you can’t hear dm Only downside is if it’s not thick or big, you will run out within an hour
I make fresh candies and appetizers, sometimes a simple dinner or whatever, especially if you're having a tavern scene actual food being eaten makes for a way more enriching experience
Salty Snack: Mini pretzels?? No mess, safe for most pets, easy to eat Sweet Snack: Gummy worms (unlike the video, you're not using them as minis- that way everybody else's grubby hands stay off of them.) The Filling Shit: Sub Sandwiches (can be customized for personal preferences, easy cleanup with a paper towel or napkin between bites if you're one of those guys who overloads it with sauce/mayo/oil, can be hot or cold, often come in wrapping so they don't get everywhere).
My argument why double stuf is not my favorite Double stuf isn’t even double, it’s just a bit more Double stuf = more space taken up in the box which means less cookies More stuf overpowers the flavor of the actual cookie itself making it feel like stuf between two crunchy bits with no flavor Thanks for listening
Pizza every time. Me personally, I prefer Domino's but get a pizza from somewhere everybody likes and make it a pizza with toppings everyone likes or just get separate pizzas for everybody
I always play d&d at my local game store, which has a dollar store right next to it. Every time my friends and I get snacks there, and every time I ALWAYS get this one specific licorice and share them with everyone.
One of the people at the Arcana would sometimes go around and collect money and orders for chinese takeout or dollar tacos from Taco Bell. Or there was one guy in one of my d&d groups that always bought a pizza. If all else came to fail, there was a little snack bar at the Arcana where you could purchase drinks and snacks. Going hungry was not an option in d&d 😂
Always use wrapped candy as your NPC standins. Unwrapped ones tend to get sticky, especially if moved around, and also they are going to be touched by people that are not eating them. Not a fan of eating other people's finger sweat.
I must be a heathen because the cheese and cracker platter is my go too. Carrots, apples and chips too. I detest fast food but it's because dnd is at my place and the friends never throw their items away. Bags all over, burgers forgotten in bags and drinks. It got so bad I had to tell them no more fast food and it caused a big fight. But that's when I made it a rule of no leaving without cleaning up. Once they realized the mess they were making everytime, it was agreed to snack platters through rotation.
everyone needs that one player that makes homemade campaign-themed snacks i.e. the barbarian gets rock candy, the rogue gets chocco coins, the wizard gets smarties, etc
I don't know if you've done this, but I'd love to see the Steamed Hams meme as a D&D session. You know, the party must prepare a feast for a noble for some reason, but the roast burns and they need to find a way to complete their mission... whatever it was... leading to the place burning down. I mean it writes itself.
It's been forever since I ran an in-person ttrpg but back in the day I would bring soda and homemade ooey gooeys on the first session or when a new player joins, but I make it clear that if no one else also brings snacks on occasion I'm not doing it as a regular thing. 4 out of 5 times I've never brought snacks more than twice.
About the veggies being “too healthy”……have you had potluck cold veggie pizza? Cook pillsbury pizza dough on a pan, let it cool off, put cream cheese as your “sauce” & put on shedded carrot & cut up broccoli florets for your veggies🤷♀️ THATS ALL Never any leftovers & you’ll always have 2 ppl asking how to make it
When we did a special holiday session, we did the "enemies and eat them as a reward" thing with wrapped Hershey's kisses. Perfect except for the wrappers.
I am the self-appointed snack bringer of our group. Individual packaged chips, crackers, & such. Plus soda and water. Last week I joined a second session, asked the host what snacks I should bring (he knows I am the snack man), they said don't worry, we're set. They were not set. There were no snacks. Tomorrow will be different.
Okay look I am the mom friend in my group. Fruits and veggies are part of a healthy diet. So yes that is sometimes what I bring for the group. They groan for a little while but soon realize they are too hungry to argue.😅

As the snack bringer may I address the missed concerns: The DM likes X, player A likes Y, Player B is allergic to soy which is in both X and Y, and bread, and chocolate. You need a snack to offer the non-players living in the house, and nobody but the snack-bringer thought about lunch. (It's a hot cooked chicken from the supermarket, a packet of mixed salad, a loaf of the DM's favorite bread and a packet of the only brand of wraps that doesn't contain soy and it took me two weeks to work that out.) Being the snack bringer is hard work dude.
Honestly my favorite mid session feasts were always when we got a large delivery of boneless wings from a local wing place.
For dnd sessions I’ll make a tavern style beef stew, chicken and dumplings, some form of dessert and like four sides. We usually have it all ate by the time we get done but my players have full bellies and are happy

The Filling Shit: Sub Sandwiches (can be customized for personal preferences, easy cleanup with a paper towel or napkin between bites if you're one of those guys who overloads it with sauce/mayo/oil, can be hot or cold, often come in wrapping so they don't get everywhere).
or just do what my group of almost all bakers and chefs do: bring an entire fucking dinner and/or desert course to a session on a whim
The biggest problem with fast food is that it's only good when warm, meaning people will rush to eat it and won't focus on the game
My argument why double stuf is not my favorite
Double stuf isn’t even double, it’s just a bit more
Double stuf = more space taken up in the box which means less cookies
More stuf overpowers the flavor of the actual cookie itself making it feel like stuf between two crunchy bits with no flavor
Thanks for listening
My friends and I use to all pitch in $10 each and just order 2 pizzas with bread sticks plus a 2 liter. We'd eat before the session.
Now I wanna see DM's reaction to that "single or double stuffed?" question as the player silently slides out an overstuffed package.
gummy bears, gummy worms, just use all the gummy animals, and you can even use em for a druids wild shape.

Or there was one guy in one of my d&d groups that always bought a pizza. If all else came to fail, there was a little snack bar at the Arcana where you could purchase drinks and snacks. Going hungry was not an option in d&d 😂
*Note to self:* Make sure to eat a heavy meal before every D&D session so you won't be hungry for snacks.

about the veggies though! my players love cucumbers! like, i chop up three of em into slices and everyone goes to town.
We like taffy, no mess in your fingers and has a variety of flavors and a little bit of sugar but not to much.
I must be a heathen because the cheese and cracker platter is my go too. Carrots, apples and chips too. I detest fast food but it's because dnd is at my place and the friends never throw their items away. Bags all over, burgers forgotten in bags and drinks.
It got so bad I had to tell them no more fast food and it caused a big fight. But that's when I made it a rule of no leaving without cleaning up. Once they realized the mess they were making everytime, it was agreed to snack platters through rotation.
Yeah, that's not a food issue. That's a friend issue.
Chocolate that looks like rocks: 10/10
We don’t need to worry about bringing snacks, we play at a dessert place 😂
everyone needs that one player that makes homemade campaign-themed snacks
i.e. the barbarian gets rock candy, the rogue gets chocco coins, the wizard gets smarties, etc
Le gasp, he delayed dragonborn puberty! This is serious! xD
I don't know if you've done this, but I'd love to see the Steamed Hams meme as a D&D session. You know, the party must prepare a feast for a noble for some reason, but the roast burns and they need to find a way to complete their mission... whatever it was... leading to the place burning down.
I mean it writes itself.
the top ttrp snacks are
cheese dip, salsa, and tortilla chips (and plain ruffles are NOT cheese dip chips @ my wife)
NOTHING IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN DRAGONBORNE PUBERTY
It's been forever since I ran an in-person ttrpg but back in the day I would bring soda and homemade ooey gooeys on the first session or when a new player joins, but I make it clear that if no one else also brings snacks on occasion I'm not doing it as a regular thing. 4 out of 5 times I've never brought snacks more than twice.
Everyone gets their own thing of pringles (+ candy, Oreos and drinks of course :))
About the veggies being “too healthy”……have you had potluck cold veggie pizza? Cook pillsbury pizza dough on a pan, let it cool off, put cream cheese as your “sauce” & put on shedded carrot & cut up broccoli florets for your veggies🤷♀️ THATS ALL
Never any leftovers & you’ll always have 2 ppl asking how to make it
Duke! Dragonborn puberty NEEDS to be made!
Pizza and Dew has worked for over 30 years so ya I'll stick to that
"How about water? Everyone drinks water."
"At least one glass gets pushed over every session."
Did you have you wife hit you for that last shot? Lol
Also love the subtitles. 😂
Beer is a good snack. Pizza is kinda always a good idea.
I came to this video for legitimate snack advice.
And the guy goes with sushi ?
personally I’d do the veggie tray. just have a bacon ranch sauce to offset the healthiness
When we did a special holiday session, we did the "enemies and eat them as a reward" thing with wrapped Hershey's kisses. Perfect except for the wrappers.
For boss battles my group gets pizza. But sometimes we all pitch in for Crumbl cookies.
I am the self-appointed snack bringer of our group. Individual packaged chips, crackers, & such. Plus soda and water.
Last week I joined a second session, asked the host what snacks I should bring (he knows I am the snack man), they said don't worry, we're set. They were not set. There were no snacks. Tomorrow will be different.
That slap after vegetables was personal and also I almost fell out my chair laughing, I didn't expect that at all XD
Okay look I am the mom friend in my group. Fruits and veggies are part of a healthy diet. So yes that is sometimes what I bring for the group. They groan for a little while but soon realize they are too hungry to argue.😅
