Of course, I certainly consume some type of food or drink (not alcohol) during the game, especially if the tournament is very long and it's lunch time or something, I never eat due to game stress, I just try to play calmly and that's it

I usually eat before online poker session, cause 5 minute break isn't good, unless you have some food prepared or like to eat snacks/fastfood. During session a big cup of good tea and bottle of water is very useful at the keyboard.

Following a competent poker strategy is the basis of a profitable poker game. But a brain-boosting diet can not only give you an edge over your opponents, it can also improve your overall health. Eat vegetables, fish, walnuts, and other foods high in omega-3s.

You also eat and drink a lot at a poker tournament because it is very long or because you worry and eat to relieve stress why does this happen to you if this is so

Some players take comfort foods to eat at the table, sweets and other snacks, but I find it is very annoying when players are chopping away and I am trying to concentrate on the action, even though I am not involved in a hand, as there is so much information to be had.
During a break I will have a Burger or Sandwich, some players like to eat at the table but I find it annoying when players eat greasy foods and then handle cards, So will always wash my hands after eating on the break. As for Drinks? I will stick with Coke or Coffee just so I get a Caffeine boost to help me stay alert.

Я всегда ем что-нибудь за компьютером
I also constantly cook at the computer, I have a lot of food next to water, drinks, pizza, and everything related to quick food, I lie next to hot dishes, I cook at the table with family and friends, I don’t like to cook when I cook delicious I eat at the computer because of this I cook at the table to get enough food
Я пью воду и все, что угодно, не от голода и беспокойства.
I agree with you, I also eat when I lose a hand where I almost won, but the card comes on the reverb, sometimes independence, and he won, which is not much from what I, after seeing evil and eat some food or sweets, after it gets a little better and the mood returns to normal

Of course, if the tournament has 8 hours of late registration, you have to eat and drink a lot.
