What a splendid pie,
Pizza-pizza pie
Gamers Grub Pizza
Ok so here we have something a little outside the box that I think will still appeal to the people who visit my site. Gamers Grub is a snack food for gamers that does not have caffeine but does have ingredients which are supposed to help you think and react quicker. Of course this could come in handy for others as well since a good snack like this could benefit anyone who need fuel and quicker reaction time. Lets check out the pizza flavor first.
Packaging: It comes in a really nice 3 oz foil pouch that has a zip lock type resealable top. There is a graphic on the front of some of the ingredients as a background that reminds me of a video game. The fonts on the front look aggressive and fit in well. On the back you will find a ton of nutrition info as well as details of how this snack works. It is all a “Tear and Tilt” package so you can pour some in your mouth without getting your fingers all mess. Nice idea since Cheeto fingers are really bad for your controller or keyboard. I give them a solid A- They put a lot of thought into this package.
Slogan: “Boost your game with Gamer Grub” is a slogan on their website and it works well. This slogan lets you know easily what this product is all about. Grade B
Taste: Tearing open the pouch I get a nice pizza snack scent. Pouring some in my hand I see that all the ingredients are top shelf. Whole cashews and almonds and assorted snack sticks and crackers. I pour some in my mouth and all together it has a really bold pizza flavor with cheese and tomato coming through strong. Individually each piece has it’s on flavor but it really shines best when it is all mixed together. It is pretty salty and has a great crunch. With a cold drink this combines very well and you will probably eat the entire pouch quickly as well as finish the drink. Inside the pouch you have Cheese Curls, Tomato Almonds, Sesame Sticks, Pita Chips, Fried Onions and Pizza Cashews. Grade B+ for flavor. This is one tasty snack
Kick/ingredients. So I have been working a lot and not gaming at all for 2+ weeks. I waited until I had a day off to try this Gamer Grub. I had my unopened copy of Killzone 3, plenty of energy drinks, hours of free time, and my Grub. I set off on a multi hour marathon of gaming. I blasted my way through the Helghast enemies with speed and precision. I was really on my game tonight and the time flew by. I had my gamers grub handy and snacked on it throughout my session. For a good 4 hours I played(I threw in a little web surfing on the side) and never got hungry or got tired. So this did not jack me up with caffeine but its Neurotransmitters and nutrition helped me stay in top form. Key ingredients for your brain include L-Glutamic Acid , Choline, and a bunch of vitamins and minerals. These come with per bag 480 calories, 27 grams of fat, 42 grams of carbs, 3 grams of sugar, and 9 grams of protein. Of course all that is for 3 servings but I know you are going to eat the whole thing. As you can see there is plenty there to keep you going for hours. Grade B for kick/ingredients. Now don’t compare that to a caffeine energy buzz but it delivers good energy for your body and mind. Combine it with an energy drink or soda and you are in gaming/multitasking nirvana.
Web presence: The site at gamergrub.com is a pretty good site. They have a ton of ingredients info, a store, teams, news ect. They really deliver in the ingredients info and they sponsor video game teams and players. They also have a Facebook. Worth checking out or sure. Grade C+
So this is some great stuff. No it is not a caffeinated energy product but it does deliver quality fuel for your gaming/multitasking. Used in conjunction with a drink it really delivers well. You need more than just caffeine if you’re going to game for a long time and that is where Gamer Grub steps in. I say give this stuff a try. It taste damn good as well. You know you are going to snack so might as well have a snack that taste great and helps you play better.
