Oh dear oh dear

Too busy playing your new Xbox One or PS4 to cook a turkey this Christmas? Fear not. UK video game retailer GAME has a solution – an all-day Christmas feast in a tin.

Dubbed 'Christmas Tinner', the product consists of nine layers of processed festive food, including scrambled egg and bacon, two mince pies, turkey and potatoes, gravy, bread sauce, cranberry sauce, brussel sprouts or broccoli (for those who don't like sprouts) with stuffing, roast carrots and parsnips, and Christmas pudding.

The disgusting-sounding concoction is already been sold in GAME's Basingstoke store for £1.99, and the company is considering a national rollout if there is enough gamer demand.

“According to new research almost half (43 per cent) of the nation’s gamers plan to spend the majority of Christmas day playing on their new consoles and games," said GAME in a statement.

“That’s why retailer GAME has developed the Christmas Tinner, enabling gamers to get their teeth into GAME play all day without having to miss out on a mouthful of their favourite food or do the washing-up.”

They should be handing out achievements for gamers that actually eat this.

a couple years ago I had corn bread, collard greens, black beans, and fried chicken for Christmas dinner which was an improvement over the Turkey TV dinners when I was single in two room apartment off base.

Seriously, if you really don't have the time to cook at least something decent because of gaming, it's sad.
