Food before riding

[coasterboy76]

I eat whenever I am hungry, Never had a problem with eating a meal then going back for more rides on the coasters. I remember doing the same thing when I was a kid at my school picnics, ride the rides like crazy, go home and pig out then go pack to the picnic and ride ride ride!

I have only felt sick on a ride when I dont eat.

 

I mean, if I eat a super-plus-chili-cheese-triple-deal-supremo, then I may be a bit cautious as to what I ride--but if its a normal park, burger and fries, then I'll feel free to ride.

 

I used to actually buy lunch, and take it to X, and eat my lunch in the line for X, because by the time I actually got on, I didn't have an uncomfortable "full" feeling. Lol.

[J man]

^I ate just before X too. But there was a two hour space inbetween the eating and the riding.

I usually eat before i go into a park, but if i get hungry i'll have something small just so i dont get too hungry. Nothing greasy that will make me sick anyway. Eating before coasters doesnt bother me, at least not that much. The only time i have gotten sick from a ride is when i didn't eat, and i went on Shiekra 2 times in a row. As for spinning rides, i just don't ride them, except maXair

 

BTW i heard somewhere else that your more likely to get sick from a ride if you dont eat, then if you have something in your stomach.

^ That sounds great, the crystallized ginger idea. We love that stuff and have it around the house all the time.

 

Worth a try. At Playland this season, they will have BreakDance and something they're calling The Gladiator which in photo looks like one of those swamp-boat 'like' flat rides. These are the two 'New AWESOME Rides' this year. What the flyer says, anyway.

 

But - definitely want to try both of them, so will take a pack of ginger along and see what happens, lol.

 

 

They brought in Breakdance and Gladiator about mid-season last year.

We now know if we ride Breakdance and then Pirate Ship in succession, my wife WILL puke. I think she missed the Pirate Ship operator, though!

 

That Burger King from what I remember should give you a good test for greasy gross food. Once you're in the park, one of the best deals seems to be the Buckeye Fries next to the Log ride.
