I totally get the urge to smuggle in your favorite snacks to the movie theater—sometimes those overpriced popcorn bags just don’t cut it! While theaters usually have strict policies about outside food, let’s just say that many of us have tried the old “discreetly bringing in snacks” trick at some point. Did you know that theaters have a long history of offering just popcorn and candy, because these items were chosen for their ability to keep patrons happy without disrupting the film’s soundtrack? Plus, who can resist the smell of fresh popcorn wafting through the air? So, while you might want to check the rules of your local theater before packing your bag full of goodies, a little snack smuggling might just be part of the fun of moviegoing.
