            Abstract

            Food is an important commodity, is essential for our survival and people usually interact with food on a daily basis. In this paper, we motivate design for serendipitous playful interaction with biscuits by describing the designs of two interactive games based on food and fun. The affordances of the food, and the affordances of the specific food, that being biscuits, on the design is discussed. As an Alt-HCI paper the work then goes on to consider the role that biscuits might have in the HCI space of the future.
