Games which are also foodstuffs

42 words

Last night in the Jug, we found ourselves trying to name games and sports which share a name with a foodstuff.

We got:

  • Squash
  • Polo
  • Marathon
  • Potato croquets
  • Discos (discus — ouch!)

There must be many more, although if you eat all that lot you might end up hurling…

    Would Archer’s count?

  2. John Says:

    Archer’s is no worse than Discos :)

  3. Ruth Says:

    In that case you can have Strongbow too.

  4. Ruth Says:

    Dave suggest potato ‘raquette’ which apparently is a way of cooking them; and ‘bowls’ of soup…

  5. Sean Says:

    Tennis biscuits are popular in South Africa

  6. Debbie Says:

    How about Tic-tacs (as in tic-tac-toe) or Hula Hoops?

  7. John Says:

    Debbie just added “Chicken”. Also, Chris mentioned Skittles on Friday.
