Eye of newt, and toe of frog,
Wool of bat, and tongue of dog,
Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting,
Lizard's leg, and howlet's wing,--
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.

Everything in the house. More importantly, I don't sleep for days, which means I can only go nuts in short bursts.

when I am working on something like a webpage or sometimes making maps, with me alot of times it depends on the season for the some of the snacks

for the non seasonal it is normally Cheez-its, Sunflower Seeds, Pumpkin Seeds, Banana chips, red vines
for the seasonal are normally Candy Corn, Candy Cane, HomeMade Pumpkins seeds

there are some that I can't think off right now.

I hate people who snack _while_ they're working ...they're touching the keyboard (one of the dirtiest things in existence), then touch the food and their mouth.... I'm glad I don't work in an office anymore.

Worse yet is when they spread orange dust from their snacks onto the keyboard, in a public computer lab.

I eat cup ramen and drink coffee. Not just while coding, that is the only sustenance worthy of the greatness of me.

If someone is eating something with orange dust in the office, chances are I can smell it. I do not want to smell anyone's food in the office, and I REALLY do not want to hear them crunching on it.

Hatred's a bit extreme, but yeah I'm personally very uncomfortable handling a keyboard while in direct contact with food, and it's definitely a bit creepy when I see other people doing so.

On the other hands, utensils? Good stuff; I'm basically all for eating at work then.

I became well-known at one of my workplaces for dealing with sushi, keyboard, and telephone (well okay, headset) at the same time.

I don't really program, nor do I really snack all too much either.
