A book titled ''Duke Nukem Does the Internet'' was released in 1996. It is an instructional book in the vein of the ''For Dummies'' series, teaching the reader how to set up and use the internet (though said advice [[TechnologyMarchesOn might be outdated by now]]), narrated entirely in-character by Duke Nukem himself.

* NoSuchThingAsDehydration: In his first adventure, a [=DOS-based=] scrolling shoot-'em-up, Duke can replenish his health by eating a cold turkey drumstick (+100 points and one health block), or zap it with his [[RayGun blaster gun]] to convert it to a hot turkey dinner (+200 points and two health blocks). Duke will also encounter cans of soda in his travels. Duke can drink the stuff as is (+100 points and one health block), or go for a maximum score by zapping it with his blaster and quickly snagging what's left before it flies out of reach. This is worth +1000 points, but adds no health. Going for a maximum, therefore, means eating only cooked turkey and zapping all the soda cans rather than drinking them.
