Insight Editions has released Pac-Man: The Official Cookbook, now available on Amazon. Like many fans, I initially doubted how credible a Pac-Man-themed cookbook could be—but authors Lisa Kingsley and Jennifer Peterson have truly delivered. This 160-page hardcover features over 60 delicious, accessible recipes perfect for game nights or video game-themed watch parties.
While the concept may seem unusual, video game cookbooks are surprisingly common—making Pac-Man’s late entry into the genre all the more surprising.

The book offers diverse recipes, from quick snacks to full-family meals, each featuring clear instructions and vibrant full-color photos. Naturally, many dishes creatively pay homage to Pac-Man—like pepperoni pizza shaped like the iconic character, Blinky-inspired tomato soup, cherry pocket pies, and eerily accurate Ghost cake pops. The smash burger recipe has already caught my eye. For just $30, this cookbook can transform your kitchen game.
