I’m not a fan of food and drinks in cinemas, all the rustling and chomping and crunching and slurping, just shut up already!

By the time the trailers are finished, I’m usually half way down the popcorn and still avoiding drinking anything so I don’t need a pish during the film!

The key is to stay strong and not open your rucksack full of supermarket treats until the trailers are over.

Sometimes but not often. I normally have Peanut m&m's which generally get inhaled.

Mrs gets nachos and I get popcorn. We share the nachos before the film and then move onto the popcorn after it starts

Popcorn seems to be never ending…

Then when you finally get to the end, you then start on the popcorn down your top and C’s top…

I think this is most of the reason we don't get food anymore, just a drink to keep things interesting. Y'know, "is my bladder going to burst before the film finishes?" type interesting

Definitely, but then I don’t go in until after the adverts have started, but just in time for the trailers.

Vanilla ice cream to start, with a few pieces of popcorn added.

Then it’s popcorn with minstrels or maltesers added for that chocolatey treat as you go through. I always ask for a spare empty bag to do the mixing up. Normally leave with some left for home.

Yes, have learned the start time advertised isn't really the start time. Also just reminded me of opening and dropping a full bag of peanut M&M's, the floor was a hard sloped floor so whole cinema heard them all rolling all the way to the front and every now and again someone must have moved their foot and you heard another one rolling.

It’s not dark until the actually film starts, it’s London dark

We always sit in the same place, top of the stairs so not hard to find, plus one in front of us and leg room, perfect !

We're all doing it wrong.

I once saw a couple pull a huge tupperware box full of hone made sandwiches out of their back pack during an afternoon showing of one of the Star Wars movies.

They kept their picnic going the entire way through!

Nope. Usually gone through all my popcorn, the kids popcorn, the emergency stash of Aldi crisps in my handbag, all my mints, and am harassing hubby to find me a nacho that doesn’t have any jalapeño on it before the meerkats even appear on screen

I never buy food at the cinema. Waste of money.

The last film we went to was a lunchtime showing with the kids at the independent cinema. I packed sandwiches, drinks, fruit and chocolate bars and bought a bag of sweets at the cinema. We sat at the back and basically picnicked during the film - and I'm not even the slightest bit ashamed. It kept them non-whiney and fairly still
