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?

Am I very sad to be sat here at work red in the face and quaking with laughter at all this bag o'mash, lump o'cheese madness. I can't even describe why it is so funny but it is.

I keep snorting with laughter and my colleagues must think I have lost it.

pedrothellama · 13/05/2010 14:27

Oooh wish I hadn't read the mash one - I could just eat sausage and mash with onion gravy

We are definitely onto something here, except I posted it first if it ever gets to Dragon's Den

GetOrfMoiLand · 13/05/2010 14:29

I love mash.

I have often sat there with a bowl o'mash at home, with a load of cheese grated in.

Whether I would be prepared to look so pig-like in public is doubtful, however. Don't think you could go on a date night to the cinema and chow down mashed spud and hoipe to retain a vestige of glamour.

cupcakesandbunting · 13/05/2010 14:29

I am now hankering after mash, cheese, nachos, rhubarb, custard and flumps

PeedOffWithNits · 13/05/2010 14:29

how about candy floss, i love that, and if anyone annoys you by chatting in the row in front, you can make sure that you get some stuck in their hair

while we're on the subject, a ban on fizzy drinks cos they cause too much belching?

AbsOfCroissant · 13/05/2010 14:30

Ooh, mash with cheese.

I'm obsessed with the stuff. I might go out later and get me some. Mmmmm. Mash

AbsOfCroissant · 13/05/2010 14:31

Yes, no fizzy drinks, no straws, because with straws you get the whole sucking thing when they get to the end that's very noisy

cupcakesandbunting · 13/05/2010 14:31

Bowl o' mash in the oven with lump o' cheese grated over it and baked until cheese is bubbling. Yum fucking yum. I am so taking a bowl of that with me for when I go to watch 4 Lions next week!

GetOrfMoiLand · 13/05/2010 14:32

I guess we are all having mash for dinner then

Mash with caramelised onions. YUm.

Mash with peas

Mash with gravy

Maaaaassh

pedrothellama · 13/05/2010 14:32

Shall we all just open a Pie and Mash shop and sod the cinema.
Or would we just eat all the stock?

We should start our own cinema concession chain - Silent Snacks

all food served in tubs

bowl o' mash would be our leading item (invented by our Director of Blue-Sky Thinking Ms Ikl Boo)

bowl o' mousse for pudding

bowl o' porridge for early morning screenings

cupcakesandbunting · 13/05/2010 14:32

Noise-free drinks. This IS a minefield.

StealthPolarBear · 13/05/2010 14:33

maybe as you walk in you could be given one unwrapped boiled sweet and be told to make it last
crunchers will be asked to leave

GetOrfMoiLand · 13/05/2010 14:33

I made a cottage pitr this weekend, with cheese on top all bubbling under the grill. The mash is so the best thing about cottage pie, sod the mince crap, just eat the mash.

This may be a nice time to remind myself I am starting the atkins diet on Monday.

skidoodly · 13/05/2010 14:33

drinks in sippy cups @ Silent Snacks

StealthPolarBear · 13/05/2010 14:35

GOML - a cottage pain in the rear??

Poledra · 13/05/2010 14:35

I do see a problem with this - you get your tub'o'mash (with optional lump'o'cheese) then, by the time you've sat through the interminable adverts at the beginning, your mash is cold . We may have to restrict the ads, or perhaps look into insulated bowls to keep it warm?

biddysmama · 13/05/2010 14:35

how about astronaught food, all served in toothpaste tubes?

withorwithoutyou · 13/05/2010 14:35

My friend went to a cinema in the states where he claimed there was one of those airline type trays on the seat in front and he ate steak, chips and beer throughout the film.

PeedOffWithNits · 13/05/2010 14:35

Hmm, the trouble is with all these bowl o' soft stuff ideas, theres gonna be a helluva lot of spoon scraping noises as eager punters try to scoop up every last scrap, how do we get around that one, huh?

GetOrfMoiLand · 13/05/2010 14:36

lol bowl o'mousse.

Oh this is the best thread on MN I have seen for ages.

I love SPB's austerity cinema chain. one boiled sweet. She will empoy usherettes to prowl the cinema with torches to catch miscreant crunchers and noisy suckers.

StealthPolarBear · 13/05/2010 14:36

sex up cold mash
we need a new name
mash zero

NowWhatIsit · 13/05/2010 14:36

what about no rustly clothing & obligatory toilet visit before you sit down @ Silent Snacks???

Cartoose · 13/05/2010 14:37

Why on earth did I click on this thread? I'm supposed to be on a diet! Now I want all of the above.
