I don't think I've ever had any of those at a game session, except maybe Red Ropes. I'd also argue that beverages should be a seperate category than snacks, and that Ramen does not count as a snack, even if it's not that filling. THat's a bit more of a meal, though not much of one.
For me, snacks are, well, snacks. Candy, chips, and other munchies that you nosh on.
My Top 5 would be:
1. Gummi Worms (Or really any Gummi candy)
2. Doritos
3. Reeces Pieces
4. M&M's
5. Frito's Scoops with Lays Mild Chedder dip.
Also, beverages: Mt Dew. I can fill a Top 5 list with Mt Dew flavors.
Food: Pizza, Chinese (Sweet & Sour CHicen for me), or Hot Subs (Usually a Turkey & Swiss).

No booze for us at the table anymore. That got banned years ago when the X-men showed up in a dungeon.
Dorito's, Coca-Cola and Chili Cheese Dog's were always the stand by.
Recently its been Diet pop, coffee with occasional meal, chips or pizza.

Well with my one D&D group it's usually:
Gummie Candy
Veggies and Dip
Grapes
Popcorn
We usually drink Coke or Pepsi and generally have a beer or two or glass of wine over the course of a session.
Dinner is a rotating thing. Each week the group member who's turn it is cooks, except for one of us who literally cannot cook, he orders pizza.
The Shadowrun group... Can't say we have anything regular. We'll eat chips or whatever is lurking in the back of my pantry and appears vaguely snack like, and we'll order in either pizza, Thai, or Chinese food.
As an interesting aside. One of these groups consists of 6 guys, the other 3 guys, 3 girls...

When I'm feeling up to it I'll make a meat and cheese dip known collectively by my group as "the crack!" Start by caramelizing some onions, brown a pound of burger, add garlic and cilantro. Then add cheese, salsa and if your guts can handle it jalapeņo's, and if you want variety sliced red, orange and/or yellow bell peppers. Add a side of tortilla chips, and maybe maybe sliced fresh tomatoes, onions and lime wedges....and well that's a snack.

My gaming group keeps our local thai place in business, so we usually all wind up with some form of curry (green curry is a fav) with egg rolls as our meal.
Snacks for me tend to be:
Walmart brand Cajun Trail Mix
Ritz Snack Mix
Pretzels
Cheetos (classic!)
At the table (provided by the host's GF) is also at least one of the following:
various bags of chocolate candy
non cheese cheetos covered in white chocolate (i didn't even know they made just the puffs)
bugles or pringles
Drinks are usually Mtn Dew, Coffee, Dr Pepper or sweet / green tea. One in a blue moon somebody brings a bottle of mango rum that gets passed around.

Top 6 snack/foods (in no particular order);
Chinese Take-Out Roast-Pork Fried Rice (a meal in of itself)
Chinese Take-Out Shrimp Eggroll (handy, inexpensive & good for a quick snack)
Chex Mix (regular/Traditional) either store-bought or home-made.
Chinese Take-Out Scalion Pancake (got turned on to Scalion Pancake from a friend who couldn't finish hers--great when dipped in soy-sauce, but potentially messy)
Rice Krispie Treats (store or home-made), a little sticky, but still good.
And ALWAYS have handi-wipes at the ready for a quick clean-up. Greasy fingers are NOT conducive to dice nor books.
Top 6 drinks (NO DIET!), as long as it's cold;
Mountain Dew. Unleader fuel for the gamer.
Vault. Hi-Octane rocket fuel. To be used ONLY IN EMERGENCIES.
Sprite.
Coke/Pepsi.
Cherry Coke. Love the bite.

I find the low occurrence of Pizza in lists (count 2, atm) disturbing
Pizza
BBQ Chips of some sort
sweet tarts (tend to be low maintenance enough that you don't need to actually touch them with your fingers to eat them, thus not getting food residue on stuff)
Stuff that can also come with pizza (chicken wings, pasta dishes, strippers)
granola/peanut butter bars, etc
soft drinks
Also, in a way, I'm actually glad during my college years we didn't have red bull and energy drinks. That stuff is dangerous.

I think most people consider Pizza to be Food, not Snack. Snacks are not a meal (or at least, they shouldn't be one). Pizza is.
And not sure if you counted me in that total, but I did list Pizza as "food" under my list

Depends on the dough. I have a pair of recipes I'll make if the mood is right - either butter cookie dough or straight up chocolate-chip cookie dough. Refrigerate either (or both, if I'm that gluttonous), and either set to bake or CONSUME.
The last batch was chocolate chip. Made about five dozen cookies.

Aloe Juice (see Drink 3)
Fermented milk drinks (see Drink 3)
Southern Comfort (See Drink 3)
Extra-a Energy mini shot energy drinks (see Drink 3)
Wasabi-soaked seaweed (You went astral after eating it)
Jam
Pancakes
Garlic Pizza
Fortune cookies. (Ever played a campaign where the oracle has to eat a cookie and make the message apply to the situation at hand? It was totally awesome and worth the dice-showers, especially when the players started to eat the cookies and play their character decisions according to what was inside.)
The powder base for "XXX's Go-Go Juice". The poor boy was awake for 2 days on a single can of coke. It's now known as "Powergrind 4000 - level-up powder power ". (I like Novacoke as a working name, but meh.)

For our group if there is snack it's chips and what ever for drink, though usually only wine once the youngins are all abed if there is going to be any alcohol. Coffee is generally a must for the missus and one of our friends.
Now full-on cooking is what we usually do instead. I figure if my friends are driving almost half an hour I can make dinner, and it usually depends on my mood or what's beeing played. Sometimes it's breakfast for dinner, with farm fresh eggs no less. I do this wicked thing with chops that involves a wet batter of hummus and milk (some times heavy creme) and Italian bread crumbs, then pan fried in olive oil.
Before I put our 7th Sea game on break I did "regional" dishes depending on the country (Middle Eastern for the Crescent Empire, pub fare for Avalon). Which reminds me of doing a sort of bangers and mash, steaming the cabbage with Guinness, brown some onions, whip the potatoes with heavy creme, add parsley, butter, green onions, garlic, and maybe boil/steam the sausage in a red wine or more Guinness.
