That Nachos were the perfect cinema snack? Have you ever tried to sit through a film with someone crunching beside you?

This guy knew he was hacking me off because he tried to start eating them 'quietly' the cinema was full so I couldn't even move seats.

Why can't they have a non-eating section?

Like mobile-free train carriages?

mosschops30 · 13/05/2010 14:00

pollywollydoodle · 13/05/2010 14:00

had someone with a bag of celery behind me the other night !

cupcakesandbunting · 13/05/2010 14:01

Those nachos are the work of the devil, with that plastic melted cheese. I hate crunchers!

Hear, hear for a non-eating section.

meltedmarsbars · 13/05/2010 14:01

Celery?

Was it a low-carb film?

OurLadyOfPerpetualSupper · 13/05/2010 14:01

I know - haven't people heard of lunch?

I feel a bit more tolerant of it if it's children having sweets or popcorn as part of the treat - but fgs can't a grown up last two hours without chowing down?

"Why can't they have a non-eating section?"

I guess it would be like the no-smoking secion - the noise would travel

I didn't know people actually bought those nachos to eat, they don't really look like food.

Don't you have to have a six figure income to be able to afford cinema food anyway?

cupcakesandbunting · 13/05/2010 14:06

I take my own (non-noisy) snacks in. No way am I paying a fortune to eat whatever crap the cinema feel is adequate to throw mindlessly down my throat.

Let's have some suggestions for non-noisy snacks.

Magaly · 13/05/2010 14:06

oh I'd love to go to the cinema and eat nachos....

Iklboo · 13/05/2010 14:08

Non-noisy snacks?

Bag o' mash (TM).

A nice tub of mashed potato in various flavours (butter, sour cream, cheese & chive, cheese & onion, bacon bits etc)

pollywollydoodle · 13/05/2010 14:10

meltedmars...it was date night...she hadn't got one....

cupcakesandbunting · 13/05/2010 14:12

Lump o' cheese. You can have nacho flavour if you like...

pollywollydoodle · 13/05/2010 14:14

a tub with an unwrapped, broken up bar of cadburys from home in it

GetOrfMoiLand · 13/05/2010 14:19

lolol at bag o' mash.

What a cracking idea.

A bowl of peas.

GetOrfMoiLand · 13/05/2010 14:20

Or bowl o' peas.

Poledra · 13/05/2010 14:21

Custard. With rhubarb, p'raps. Or would that lead to slurping?

Mmmmmm, I want some custard now.

biddysmama · 13/05/2010 14:21

cinemas sell nachos so that pregnant ladies dp's know where to find them some at ridiculous o'clock...

PeedOffWithNits · 13/05/2010 14:22

marshmallows? or is that too obvious

cupcakesandbunting · 13/05/2010 14:24

But marshmallows will come in a bag so will not be noise-free. Unless we can get...

tub o' marshmallows!

GetOrfMoiLand · 13/05/2010 14:24

Yeah but masrhmallows come in rustly bastard bags, so they're out.

Suppose you could have a tub o'flumps

GetOrfMoiLand · 13/05/2010 14:25

spooky twilight zone x-post there cupcakes

pedrothellama · 13/05/2010 14:25

AbsOfCroissant · 13/05/2010 14:26
