SALEABLE COGNITIVE PERFORMANCE SNACK FOOD ITEMS AND METHODS OF PREPARING, PACKAGING AND USING SAME

A method of providing a cognitive performance snack food to a user includes producing a multitude of snack food pieces, placing the multitude of snack food pieces in snack packaging adapted to be self-standing when placed on a general horizontal surface, and providing a saleable performance snack food item to consumers for use during computer or video game activity. Some snack food pieces include a snack food base, a mixture of cognitive performance additives; and in some cases an outer shell. The snack pieces and snack packaging together define the saleable performance snack food item, which can be consumed with one hand and while operating computer or video gaming equipment.
