Same food as usual. Vegetables (carrot, green beans), chicken or fish. Water only. I'm still on a diet, ain't gonna break it because of E3.

Oh I thought this was for people going to the show, last year I (a British person in the US for the first time) went to a nearby Denny's alone and that was a very weird experience

I'm home this year so everything is really late except Nintendo's, and I'll be busy during that, so no food for me

Normally I would have a glorious meal planned for the Sony event, so I'm a bit unsure of how to handle things this year. I finish work on Sunday around the time Microsoft's event ends, so I'll probably get some good food and catch a replay when I get home. Monday, there're so many events spread throughout the day it's hard to determine which event to get food for. Kinda Funny? AMD? SE?

Sigh...

Luckily a local pizza place does a half-off deal so I’m getting two XL pizzas for $18 total. 👍🏻

So pizza and some fries will likely be my core E3 snacks for the week.

Okay, the $30 Italian meal is definitely a bit I missed apparently haha.

I'll probably go for pizza for the Microsoft or Bethesda conference. Beyond that, Ubisoft will probably be eggs and a protein shake after the gym.

Well it’ll be morning for Nintendo so probably oatmeal, maybe a frozen California pizza kitchen pizza? For a really early lunch, 4 cheese or scicilian. Sunday and Monday I’ll just watch the trailers of anything announced I find interesting (mainly for switch)

For Microsoft's conference, probably some Chinese food.

Nintendo's conference is right after a class I have so I'll just grab something quick before watching it.

I'll probably end up getting some wings from my local wing joint.

And on a side note , little caesars is absolutely disgusting and not worth any amount of money. At least get a pizza that doesn't taste like crap.

For Microsoft's E3 conference, I'm buying some fried chicken and soda from my local place, they're great. As for Nintendo's E3 Direct, I'll just have home made meals. :P

Microsofts conference is at 3 PM so it doesn't really effect the family plans for Sunday. I'll probably have a beer and snack on some chex mix. I'll have to keep some ice cream on hand for those late night Giant Bomb streams though!

I'll be at Xbox fanfest/ E3 conference so I'll post pics of the food they serve, I'll probably keep a snickers in my pocket just in case.

Whatever I can find from the food trucks in the walkway outside that isn't too overpriced? I might just stash some rice balls in my tiny bag and end up buying one of those fruit slush drinks they make back in the depths of West Hall.

Some good ol' fashioned NYC Pizza from John's of Bleecker St. I wanted to get some on my birthday a couple of weeks ago, but I forgot to get some. Just look at it, delicious (picture from Yelp review):

I'm in Florida, so probably a Pub Sub or some Publix fried chicken. There's also an excellent micro brew that is less than a mile from my house...Central 28...that makes some great IPAs, so I'll have one or three of those as well to wash it all down.

This looks amazing, im a sucker for soups and this looks like an Olla de carne.
Thats exactly what it is, I'm putting some chicken, beef and pork. Also adding some plantains, yuca and corn like the picture. Put a little hot sauce and lemon with some white rice on the side and its a wrap.

Tuna salad and Ramen are already on my menu.

I’ve already committed to making a batch of Scotch eggs Sunday so I’ll probably have a couple of those and some pretzels or something during the shows that day. Wash it down with a beer or two.

I'm free for every day of this E3, so I have this very meticulously planned out:

SUNDAY: For Microsoft's conference, I'm getting watermelon beer and ordering some Indian food (Paneer Pasanda with Naan bread. God I love living in Queens. Sometimes.). By the time Bethesda rolls around I'll have some cheeseburgers with Mac sauce from my local McDonalds at the ready.

MONDAY: I'm catching a train to Long Island in the afternoon, so my plan for the Ubisoft conference is to get coffee and a sandwich from Starbucks (not sure which yet, maybe Grilled Cheese or that Chicken/Manchego sandwich. Or maybe sausage egg & cheddar if they still have them. We'll burn that bridge when we get to it) and watch it on the train. Hopefully I get service/still have a data, otherwise I'll try my best to avoid spoilers and catch up when I get home. Luckily this plan will allow me to strategically grab one of their fudge brownies for when I watch the Square Enix conference later in the day (possibly with some craft hard cider, we'll see how the night feels).

TUESDAY: I'll be watching Nintendo's direct with some vanilla iced coffee and some kind of cheddar cheese omelette (fillings TBD morning of).

With any luck, by the time I'm all done with this, the sheer amount of calories I consume will be enough to motivate me to start dieting/working out again because reading all of that back to myself tells me I should really start dieting/working out again when I'm all done with this.

I tend to eat bad during E3 week.

I'll miss MS until late that evening when I get home, so I'll probably grab some kinda fast food. Maybe some tacos and nachos.

Monday I'll be working so again, when I get home, I'll probably catch Easy Allies reactions of stuff and pair it up with some Chinese food or cheese burgers.

Tuesday's a holiday in my State so I'll be out doing stuff that day lol.
