Ever sneak food into the movie theater?

Once I was in a theater in the Japantown in my city and I sneaked in a sushi rice bowl. I had no idea how hard it was to use chopsticks in the dark. How about you guys? What do you eat when you feel the concussion stands are ripping you off?

I've always snuck in candy and soda because the food they sell in theaters are just too expensive. The biggest thing I've ever snuck in were two McDonalds meals. I put it in my son's diaper bag and even though the french fry smell came through, nobody said anything. Maybe they just didn't care.

I have brought in drinks before, as well as candy, like chocolate and gummy candies haha. Movie places really rip you off when you are wanting some snacks at the movies, you end up spending as much, or more money than the original cost of the movie alone- I guess that they make their highest revenue on food hah.

All the time when I was younger. Mostly cans of pop and candy bars - whatever would fit in jacket sleeves and pants pockets.

Yeah...I have a few times. Once when I was a teenager. My friends got me to snick in candy because I was the only one with a purse. Then, I just started doing it for myself, lol. One time I snuck in a chicken sandwich from Chick-Fil-A when I was at a movie by myself, lol (when I was an adult). I don't sneak food in now a days because those distracting ushers are up and down the isle looking for people with cameras. Those ushers are distracting when they come looking for camera people. The walk up in front of the screen while the movies playing, then like they see something, go up and down the isle around the seats.
