What to eat at a movie theatre?

[cruisergal]

There is always a challenge of when going to a movie theatre, of what to eat! I have previously brought with me in my purse, pork rinds, celery, Atkins bar (when not on induction), water of course. Any other suggestions out there? We're off to a movie tomorrow night with some friends, and I want to plan for the evening, so that the smell of popcorn doesn't absorb me.

Eat before you go of course so you aren't feeling weak and take those snacks with you... if you aren't on induction you can take nuts as well... or jicama, red bell pepper, etc...

Try taking a ziplock with pieces of jicama, cucumbers, pepperoni...

definitely eat just before you go!

Can I ask what Jicama is? What does it taste like?

I love pistachios, and an even lower-carb choice is a bag of pumpkin or sunflower seeds. It takes me 2 full hours to finish a bag that yields under 10 carbs. Love that!!

Eating at the movies or in front of the TV is a bad habit, and causes you to consume a lot of mindless calories. I just grab a large bottle of water and enjoy the movie.

I agree with Momof3greatgirls, there is no rule that you HAVE to munch when at the cinema!! I find I can manage not to want to eat at all if I have eaten beforehand.

jicama is a root vegetable. If you follow this link http://www.foodsubs.com/Tubers.html and scroll to jicama it has a picture and a description of it.
