What's the best type of food to eat in a shower?

I can't believe that no one has mentioned the famous shower orange yet. On Reddit there is a whole subreddit dedicated to it.

A cold orange in the shower is perfect – it's refreshing, it smells great and you don't have to deal with the usual mess of eating an orange.

Something hot in an open bowl sounds like the worst food to eat in a shower TBH.

I'd go with something cold in a tube, like an ice pop. Or maybe a beer in one of those fancy insulated tumblers with a closeable lid.

For fast eating challenge try cotton candy

Cured sausage. It doesn't dissolve or absorb water.

Beer.

I enjoy eating peaches in the shower Any messy fruit, really, but stone fruits in general.

You can just shamelessly get in there, get that nectar all over your face, and enjoy it. Probably more enjoyable if you have a beard and need to eat carefully.

I no longer drink, so this is like my shower beer now.

I prefer to run a hot bath with a bunch of bouillon cubes. I bring salad and breadsticks in with me for the unlimited experience Olive Garden promises, but refuses to actually provide paying customers.

Mangoes because you can go primal without a care

My next door neighbor makes meals in his shower after getting a garbage disposal installed.

Mango. Otherwise you just end up with a mess

Crunchwrap supreme. Next question.

Grapes.

Does beer qualify as a food?

A peach. I prefer to eat my oranges segment by segment, so I don’t really find them messy, but a good, ripe peach should be messy as hell.

Most fruit seems to be a good choice IMO. Even veggies may be a decent option. Grapes maybe?

Fruit is generally waterproof, so it's not like it will taste different in the shower.

I think anything with flour is probably a bad choice. Nobody likes soggy bread/cake/whatever.

I'd also consider any kind of cheeses or cured meat. Maybe a nice meat/cheese/fruit assortment?

Can it be a bath instead of a shower?

There's the classic shower beer, and that's actually really fun. Like others said, be careful & if you want to be extra cautious, aluminum cans only or poured into a stainless steel vessel.

When I was a fat little teen, I somehow heard the idea of eating potato chips in the shower. I tried it & it was oddly satisfying. They were Ruffles. I only did it once or twice total, it would be kind of weird to do all the time.

Shower beers, however....always a good idea.

Tropical fruit, so I can relive my trip to Thailand

None.

Vegetables and fruits. You'd wash them first anyway.

Everyone saying mango because of that meme but the answer is obviously WATERMELON. It's got water right in the name and is just as messy as mangoes!

None

BBQ on the bone - I haaate messy meals, so let's set up a table with slaw, taters and a nice rack slathered in sauce, get naked, and turn on the water.

An orange. Apparently it is a life changing experience according to a group on that other site.

Citrus fruit.

Beer.

1. Liquid

2. Calories

3. Uh...

Smoothies from a closed-lit container and a straw.

Apple

Some scuba divers train to eat bananas underwater. I suspect that wouldn't be too bad in the shower

Concentrated lemonade…? 😳

• You let it it dilute as you go, as per your taste.

A block of hard cheese…? 😆

• It would be water resistant (waterproof) enough to last the whole shower.

That is an interesting thought experiment that never occurred to me.

This sub name fails.

Frozen watermelon

I like to drink beer in a shower. Not sure if you count it as food

Beef jerky?

Shower orange!!!

Oranges, apparently.

Those wings that are so hot they make you cry. That way you're in the shower and no one can see your tears.

Chicken wings. When you finish one, just chuck the bone right into the toilet

Fruit

Ice pops! It's great to be in a hot shower and then take a bite of sweet cold ice

Two steaks at the same time

I think American's call them OtterPops? We call them icy poles. Wherever you are in the world, those things.

An entire thanksgiving turkey.

Kramer?

Is beer a food?

Fruit kebab and pacifico in a steaming hot shower.

A loaf of bread.

Steak

Those fruit puree or yogurt squeeze pouches.

What a question to see after the Quora post.

With your back to the water, barbecue. Messy as hell. But that doesn't matter cause you're in the shower.

Fish. They eat all their food wet so why not eat them when they're drowning in shower water?

My kids will eat anything in the shower. But I would say mango, I can only eat that over the sink anyway, so messy.

curry. It may not appear ideal at first glance: water sprays on that and your flavor goes down the drain, literally. HOWEVER, with careful placement of the food container, you could effectively minimize the amount of water getting into your curry, minimizing loss of flavor. If your curry is too hot and you start to sweat, you can simply turn the tap colder to cool yourself down while you eat. When you're done, you don't need a finger bowl to clean your hands either, just run them under the shower water. Best enjoyed with rice, as the roti will get too soggy.

I used to drink cold bottles of beer while showering. Very doable.

A baloney sandwich and a pickle

Spaghetti.

Something dry that even in hot humid air won't spoil quickly.

Cheese seems like a good bet. Certain cooked and cured meats similarly; salami or beef jerky, cooked sausages etc.

But ultimately why would you eat in the shower? The real problem is either time management issue or eating too much of you really need to cram food in your gob while showering. Also would waste more water and time in the shower if you're both eating and cleaning yourself.

Its the sort of seemingly innocuous question that actually shows you maybe should be taking a long hard look at your life priorities. The shower is a good place to think about that, maybe while chewing on a block of cheddar cheese.
