I would fly half way across the country just to see John chow down on a plate full of veggies. Some how I thought my vegetable medley would not cut the mustard with John.

There is no better snack food than dipping something full of carbs into hot cheese with meat. So here is the masterpiece: 15 to-go orders of Chili's Skillet Queso poured into some sort of heat saving thermal pouch. Then the tricky part, getting the chips/pretzels in. I think that pulling the old Hunch back of Notre Dame is the best ploy. You should be able to squeeze one of those giant nacho chip bags in any good size hump. Pretzels fit in pockets or under one of those cowboy hats you guys have down there in Texas...Yee Haw. I can't make it down there this weekend, so we'll have to save this for another day.

I prefer Burger King but any will do. Not only do you get a fresh meal that you cant possibly get from the theater, but you also get a cheap thrill from the thought that you are sticking it to the man! NO $3.50 FOR A DRINK! DOWN WITH $4.00 HOT DOGS!! ATTICA! ATTICA! ATTICA! Sorry, I got carried away… The best movie watching snack is the sneak in cheeseburger and coke. I prefer Burger King but any will do.

The basis of my ideal movie watching snack would have to be what I call Dr. Beer. Rather than actual beer, my Dr. Beer is a tasty combo of Barq's Root Beet and Dr. Pepper. For this to be at it's best, it needs to be ice cold. To round out my snack, I also need some items from the solid unhealthy snack food group. These tasty treats have almost zero nutritious content, so you know that they are good. The first item is a big bag of gummy worms. These are an ideal snack for movie watching as they are easy to dig out of the bag, don't mess up your hands, and are a lot of fun to chew on. They also work really well for sharing, so you can use them as movie currency to trade for snacks that your buddies have. So far, we have lots and lots of sugar. We need something to balance this out. That's where the staple of movie watching snacking comes in: buttery popcorn. Sure, movie popcorn takes a food item that can be good for you and makes it a junk food, but that's why it's so great. Now if I'm going to be at the movie theater all day, there are two additional food items that are great at movie theaters. The king of these foods is the mighty hot dog. Good theaters have dogs that are thick and juicy. They just beg to coated and ketchup, mustard, and relish. Sorry Chicago, ketchup is a must. Not only is the dog tasty, the protein will help sustain my hard work of sitting on my butt and angling my head up slightly. Some of you may think that my last item is nachos. While nachos are good, a big soft salty pretzel dominates even the best nachos. Add some gooey cheese to dip the pretzel in, and I've got yet another great salty treat to complement all the sugar. Sounds like a fun day to me John.
