WHAT DO TOP GAMES INDUSTRY FIGURES EAT?

The games industry is fuelled by creativity. 

But how do those who produce the games we love feed that creativity? Not in the sense of fuelling their imagination, but regarding the sorts of food they put into their stomachs, through their mouths?

Surely, we cannot be alone in having wondered what sorts of food the top games developers and bosses prefer to eat? Consequently, we approached a number of leading industry figures to tell us what they include on their day-to-day menus.

JENOVA CHEN - Developer, Journey

Chen, what do you eat? "This may sound perverse, but I prefer to eat food that has been genetically modified. Basically, fruit which has had living animal parts grafted onto it. Have you ever eaten a banana covered in dolphin haemorrhoids, or a pear with a chattering cygnet's beak sticking out of it? That one can be a challenge, but it tastes great. Try to eat around the oesophagus though. It's somewhat astringent."
DAN HOUSER - Founder, Rockstar Games

Houser, what do you eat? "I eat my own body. Strictly speaking, it's a type of cannibalism, but I like to think of myself as a sustainable orchard that grows meat and keratin. On the whole I stick to chowing down on my blood, hair and nails, as they're fairly easy to replenish. Once, I did eat a testicle, but as I'd dropped it in the bath, it rather tasted of bubbles. I'll probably have the other one someday, when I'm sure I don't need it anymore." 
BOBBY KOTICK - CEO, Activision Blizzard

Kotick, what do you eat? "I eat my cat's eggs. Yes, that's right. Some cats do lay eggs, as far as I know. They're these small, pale, jelly-like balls that emerge from their bottoms. Every now and then I'll hear a wet smacking sound - like a tramp licking his fingers - then a damp plop, and just know there's going to be a pile of a couple of dozen fresh, lukewarm, eggs waiting for me to suck them up off the floor. Well, I assume they're eggs, of some sort. Good cat. Congratulations."
KEN KUTARAGI - Former president of Sony Computer Entertainment

Kutaragi, what do you eat? "I peel the skin off a chicken, wipe that all over my face like it's a napkin, and then inhale it through my little nozzy (nose)."
DAVID BRABEN - CEO Frontier Developments

Braben, what do you eat? "Braben eats yoghurt."
TIM SWEENEY, Founder Epic Games
Picture
Sweeney, what do you eat? "I go to the burial sites of pirates, and dig up their remains. Then I use those remains as a picnic table, while I lick to death an exquisite Calippo."
JEFF MINTER - British gaming icon
Picture
Minter, what do you eat? "Halibut."
WARREN SPECTOR, Creator Deus Ex
Picture
Spector, what do you eat? "These days I survive on a diet of alleged super foods. Basically, pomegranate bits in albumen. When I was younger I exclusively ate grey food. Do you have any idea how difficult it is to find food that is grey? Basically, it's mushrooms, oysters and baba ganoush. Maybe some fish skin. Anything more colourful and I found myself becoming over-stimulated, and would start shouting that the rainbows were trying to kill me."

Why I thought the word nozzy was hilarious is anyone's guess.
