Cheese sauce nachos are the best cinema snack?

Now everything is overpriced we know that, and the popcorn smell draws you in but the cheese sauce on the nachos are the best cinema snack right?

The hotdogs are meh.

I guess it doesn't even have to be nachos. Cheese sauce with like potato fry things that they sell is also excellent.

No thank you. Cinemas are too loud and too smelly.

Nooooo! The popcorn, a mix of sweet and salty, dump a bag of crispy m&ms and a bag of minstrels in. It's the best!

I can't help laughing at your nickname OP!

Not a great advert for cinema food 😂

Haha yeah that's not great. It's from when I thought I'd try some fridge raiders that had evidently been raiding the fridge for too long and I ate one in the dark randomly looked in the packet and they were mouldy. I freaked out and they haven't graced our fridge since.

Oh I love these! My usual cinema snack is salty popcorn but I had these when my tiny local cinema didn’t have that. Oh my god, they’re lush!! The sauce doesn’t taste anything like cheese but it’s still amazing 🤣

Tacocatgoatcheesepizza · 28/04/2023 18:00

Ooh yes, I have nachos with cheese, salsa and chillis. I do also like to have a hot dog sometimes. And also a big bag of salty popcorn!

God no yabvu 🤮

Ineedaholidaynowplease · 28/04/2023 18:06

If you ever worked in a cinema and saw the congealed sauce at the end of the night it would put you off. Also comes in a massive tin, horrible stuff. Love nachos, would never eat cinema nachos.

JaneJeffer · 28/04/2023 18:20

These culinary cinema delights have not reached this neck of the woods.

Eating in cinemas should be banned. Nothing worse than sitting amongst the masticating hoards adding their disgusting sound effects.

Mrsphilmiller · 28/04/2023 18:25

If you don’t want to sit around people who are eating “smelly food” then I suggest you stay home. Puh!

Unfortunately there wouldn't be cinemas without the masticating hoards

Besides people can eat quietly

I remember long before the price hikes that a friend I was with spent £7.50 on a large (extra large?) Popcorn and I was in shock.

Mouldyfoodhelp · 28/04/2023 18:28

And also cinemas are quite loud anyway. I'm not sure I've sat too close to anyone I'm ages, must have been pre covid it doesn't seem like a massive issue as there's been loads of space generally

No, because they are noisy. When I rule the world I will ban all food in the cinema.

LoobyDop · 28/04/2023 18:49

I love nachos, but I no longer go to the cinema because the smell of other people’s food is disgusting.

TomatoSandwiches · 28/04/2023 18:53

That nacho cheese comes in a tinned can and wobbles like jelly until it's fully melted.

autienotnaught · 28/04/2023 18:54

Hate cheese sauce but nachos with grated cheese, gauc, sour cream and salsa is the best

toothbrusher · 28/04/2023 18:54

Nachos yea, but the cheese sauce is minging! Sour cream, guacamole and jalapeños all round

RaininSummer · 28/04/2023 19:20

That cheese slime is awful. The only time I ever bought nachos in the cinema I didn't eat them as it was so gross and I wasn't expecting it.

mamaduckbone · 28/04/2023 19:22

🤢

But they don't. That's the problem.

Hbh17 · 28/04/2023 19:55

Yuck. Eating in the cinema is always a disgusting habit, and should be banned completely, but eating smelly food is completely unforgivable.

bellalou1234 · 28/04/2023 20:04

I have a hot dog and cheese nachos heaven...

My local cinema has a bar but no “snacks”.

It’s heaven.

Cinema snacks 😡

If you want to eat noisy and smelly food while watching a film....do it at home.
