Chara actually got in trouble for that, because Pepsi was an NHL sponsor. He said he liked Coke, they told him to not get caught drinking one on camera again.

[@Outrage]

I feel like they should get mad at the camera guy for that?? A player should be able to eat/drink what they want, just don't zoom in on them if it's gonna be a problem

Most guys dummy a banana or two between intermission and maybe a cookie, good way to bring up blood sugar and reduce lactic acid. Several players now drink coke, dr pepper, or cola's in between periods too. When I played Jr. I used to eat a couple oreos.

[@Capt_Chaos_91]

The team would do pickle juice shots before a meet back when I swam competitively. I thought it was just a weird tradition until someone explained it to me lol

bananas and mustard help reduce lactic acid and prevent cramps from what I know, mustard is actually pretty popular.

The pickle juice is too! The vinegar in mustard and pickle juice is what does it!

Back when I played aaa my team once got scored on because both D went to change when the puck was at the far blue line and the goalie who was supposed to be opening the door was slamming a bag of Lays. He had one hand on the door trying to open it and the other pouring chips into his mouth😂we were up by 4 in the third so it was ok

[@counterfit5]

[@williamfugere8816]

Coach must've murdered him next practice lol

[@burkles4456]

the mustard packs make me wince everytime

[@YouTube.Algorithmic.Nonsense]

The mustard, bananas, and pickle juice all work great for muscle cramps. And the absolute best is apple cider vinegar. One spoonful and horrific cramps go away instantly. It’s amazing. The key to them all is potassium, magnesium, and calcium.

[@sarahprince2412]

Bingo. It's not weird to see people eat or drink those things. I don't get why people would get disgusted with that when it will actually HELP you.

[@YouTube.Algorithmic.Nonsense]

@@sarahprince2412 I'm completely sold on the apple cider vinegar. It absolutely works. I've successfully used it and once my wife was in complete agony with cramps in her feet and toes. She could not move and had debilitating pain. After a quick Google search on what works, she took a spoonful of apple cider vinegar and the cramps were gone in less than 10 seconds. I wasn't surprised as much as to what worked, but just how fast it worked. It was like an IV.

[@philemard6183]

I’ve always wondered why people don’t eat food more often while on the bench

[@NickWells.07]

when your stomach has to digest food it takes a lot of energy that could otherwise be used to play better.

[@troywallace7011]

They don't want to get logy

[@discountmontecrisco2151]

it really depends. Some guys with Diabetes or other problems will have their blood sugar and stuff checked in between periods and plan accordingly. But yeah mostly eating can cause minor cramping and stuff due to digestion already so liquid or some form of liquid has become the primary and preferred delivery system - think glucose packs etc.

[@vendro7900]

Youre focused on the game not your hunger. Players will have routines that usually make it so by game time they have no issues, Bathroom, food, equipment, that kind of thing is considered a bit unprofessional. Like if you were working and started eating in the middle of your shift in stead of at lunch. Most the food here was eaten to get rid of cramps like the Bananas, mustard, and pickle juice. The coke honestly can't be much worse than Gatorade but that one idk about.

[@CounterSniper67]

@@vendro7900 Some people drink soda to settle their stomach. Others might be drinking it simply for the sugar content.

[@JouvaMoufette]

It does look odd just because it doesn't seem like a sports food, but considering all the benefits, yeah it's a very good choice. Still does look weird though.

that is pretty normal in hockey and other sports that they consume some salty/sweet drinks or snacks becouse it recovers fast losed energy and helps to focus when you get little snack middle game.

[@TomasMisura]

[@billnyethesciencedenier6701]

I ate a Cuban sandwich while ice skating. It was incredible.

[@sabberi]

Endurance cyclists and other insane athletes use all of these. It's mostly a matter of convenience of carrying and consuming. Quick sugars (coke) and salts (pickle juice) make nothing but sense.

A little bit of sugar to finish the 3rd. Probly a smart move IMO.
