What food do you eat when watching movies?

It is rare for people to watch movies whether at home or in the theater not to eat anything at all. Some people eat popcorn. Others eat chips. Those who watch in theaters usually do not just eat anything as there are certain restrictions as to what food can be brought into the theaters. Thus, those who watch at home can have the luxury of eating just about anything while watching movies. My favorite is potato chips. How about you?

My all time favorite would be potato chips or pizza. That's what I get when I'm really in the mood to dig in. Burgers are pretty cool too. I only order popcorn when I'm feeling funky, or when I'm on a date because chips and pizza tend to be messy and that does not make a happy date make.

When I go to the cinema I love to each Nachos with cheese and salsa. Or alternatively I'll have a bag of chocolates to munch on :) At home, I just grab whatever nice thing is available haha. It's usually crisps :)

I eat anything as long as there is an available of food in the kitchen. Mostly, I eat junk foods or just cook something. Watching movies can be fun if there are foods! And I don't watch movies in theaters. So it is convenient for me what foods I want to eat.

I love watching movies very much. It's my favorite past time aside from reading books.. Regarding the food to munch on while watching, I usually take whatever is available inside the fridge preferably any junk foods.

Hey its interesting task to eat chats watching movies, the first in list would be popcorn wit coco-cola, during break it would be nice to drink coffee when its evening show in A/C theater. In home it could be hot stuff with added spicy.

Hi! I usually don't eat anything inside the theaters but I usually eat popcorn. But there were times that me and my friends have ate chips and all that junkfood. Sometimes we brought candies/gummy candies. There was a time that we were hungry and the movie was about to start so we didn't have time to eat out. Instead, we brought burgers inside.

When I watch a movie at home I normally either snack on crisps, sweets ice cream the usual food and anything i like really. When I watch a film at the cinema I normally eat popcorn or nachos, with a drink I try and get the meal deals that some do at the cinemas as they sometimes end up cheaper.

Mmm, that's what I do too. Sometimes I'll eat fruit though when I'm at home. I LOVE popcorn at the movie theater. I always douse it in butter and salt. Mmmm.

when I'm watching movies at home I eat anything I like because I have a freedom to choose any kind of food.. But when I watch a movie in cinema I just bring a bottle of water only if I'm alone but if my friends are there we gonna bring chips or popcorn..

Mostly I watch movies in discrete chunks - effectively serialising them, it seems my free time is over lunch breaks, so sadly enough the answer is - Cheese sandwiches !

I prefer watching at home so I literally eat anything including fried chicken on bare hands. But I believe most people prefer finger foods as they can watch the movie closely without looking frequently at their food while eating.

I usually don't like to eat when watching movies. If I'm watching a comedy, I don't want to laugh with food in my mouth in case might choke on it. And if I'm watching another genre like drama, horror or suspense, I find eating distracts me from the intensity of the scenes.

Nothing. Not even water - you should follow a certain routine in eating - otherwise its very unhealthy.

just anything available. Nuts, chips are the most favored. Usually because it is night time anything eatable. Open the fridge and what is in there and to my likings then I eat. But not too heavy as I will be going to sleep. And sometimes no food also as I usually watch tv lying on the sofa.

I rarely, if ever, go to a theater to see a movie, so all my movie watching is done at home. When watching movies at home, I don't really have a favorite "munchie." It all depends on what I'm in the mood for at the time. Sometimes it's candy, sometimes, it's popcorn, and sometimes it's some kind of chip with dip. I usually end up watching movies with my 8 year old son, so we generally munch on whatever he feels like munching on.

My favorite thing to eat while watching a movie is Popcorn and chocolate covered raisins along with a pop. This is for home or at the theater.

When I'm at home, I love to eat nacho with cheese, potato chips, or just some hot chocolate. At the movie theater I really don't eat anything since food are expensive, but I used to eat nacho with cheese, a soda, and sometimes I would buy a box of Airheads candy instead of the nacho with cheese.

Mostly I used to have cool drinks with some chips and pop corns. I don't each chips and pop corns much from my home but I used to eat a lot from the theater with my friends. It will be great fun with them Don't you go for film with your friends ?
