Why is there so much food in videogames? SERIOUSLY! Even in the quintessential videogame Super Mario Brothers, food appears within the first few seconds. It's an, until now, unquestioned part of all the games that we play. But on this week's episode of Game/Show, Jamin looks long and hard at the history of food in games with games like Cooking Mama, Mario Party, Cook, Serve, Delicious, Paper Mario, Wind Waker, Skyrim… the list goes on. Food is in EVERYTHING! Check out this week's episode and find out why!
