The Best Snacks and Treats For Movie Theaters

A real treat for me is to go to the movies. I love the whole experience, and one of my favorite parts is indulging in my favorite movie theater food. It’s not healthy, and is way over priced but I love it and it makes my trip even more enjoyable.

There is so much food for sale in movie theaters these days that the choice can be mind blowing. Here are just a few of my favorites.

One of my all time favorite foods is now a regular fare in movie theaters. These are the deliciously satisfying Nachos. There’s just something g very special about that hot cheese and salty chips. My only problem is trying not to crunch too loudly.

If you want to limit how much fatty food you eat, yet still enjoy a snack at the movies, then pretzel bites. These hot pretzel pieces arrived in our movie theaters during the 1990’s and are still going strong. If you want to spoil yourself a bit, get them dipped in cheese, delicious.

The biggest selling candy in American movie theaters is the addictive and delicious Sour Patch kids. The contrasting flavors of sweet and sour are truly amazing, and very addictive.

If you like your candies you’ll probably also go for Sno-Caps, Goobers and Junior Mints. Do you, however, ever buy them from a store with your other candy? I bet you don’t, as the movie theater success of these candies has never been replicated in the stores.

There is a great variety in the flavors of fountain sodas available, and I admit I like to mix it up a bit rather than stick to the same one all the time. A new favorite is the flavored ice drink called slush; this is exactly what the name says it is, slushy ice with a fruit flavoring.

I’m finishing off this list with the most popular movie theater food ever created, I refer, of course, to popcorn. This became a favorite decades ago and still stands firm as the favorite global movie food.
