Here's an interesting article on what GMs are eating. I'll be sticking to my doritos thank you very much :) http://latestchess.com/showArticle.php?id=7

Thanks very much for this! It seems chocolate and water is a good combination when playing. And I got a chuckle out of reading that the reason 36.1% of GMs skipped breakfast was because they studied so much the previous night, they didn't wake up til' after breakfast!
Sounds like me, heh.
One thing the article misses is the usual training regimen GMs have. Some of them have very strict routines - mostly cardio.
I'd be interested in that as well. I'm fond of extended walks, and just today I rode my bike (first time I've gotten it outta the shed in awhile) twelve miles. And I'm gonna walk a bit tonight, when it gets cooler. And when I can get some more songs to listen to on my iPod.
