Movie Theater Candies Ranked Worst to Best (Very Important, Fatties)

Popcorn > any candy.

I don't do the whole candy in with the popcorn deal, but someone did turn me on to the flavor profile of Butterfingers and popcorn, so I usually do that for at least a couple bites. A scene in this season of Mr. Robot was the first time I had heard of people pouring M&M's in with the popcorn. I don't care where they claim to melt, that just seems messy.

For the record, Buncha Crunch gets my vote for #1, but it's hard to argue against SPK.

This list should be called the Best Movie Theater Candies to Pair with Popcorn, In My Opinion, But SPKs are #1 Because They Are Just The Best.

Anyway, it sucks, other than getting No. 1 right. Sno-Caps? Really? And you're gonna rank Whoppers dead last? GTFOH

Sno-Caps are awesome

Did the priest force feed them to you to stifle your cries?

Sour patch kids were the biggest ripoff in the candy section. Huge box with a tiny plastic bag on the inside that filled like 30% of the box volume.

Yeah, but if you eat any more than that, your mouth will be fucked up for days.

I have to believe Whoppers are dead last because malt chocolate in general is so polarizing. Probably means they should be somewhere in the middle.

I may be about to start a war here, but I'm not sure if you lined up a Red Vine beside a Twizzler that I would be able to tell the difference. There is also a possibility that I've never had a Red Vine :couch:

I don't think I've ever had a Red Vine. The only thing that Twizzlers have going for you is the fact that they give you like 30 pounds of them for the same price as everything else. Which really isn't a plus.

Milk Duds should be the clear winner - they last the longest and taste the best, plus they sound a little more muffled coming out of the box as compared to things like M&Ms, reese's pieces, and skittles, and they don't have a loud crinkly bag-inside-the-box thing like SPKs do.

1. milk duds
2. junior mints
3. SPK
4. Buncha Crunch



...



everything else.

Yeah, the first 5 or 10 are good, then they just scrape the roof of your mouth off. Also, raisinettes? What? They sell those at the theater?

Give Trader Joes version a shot

Did not know that word, but the alternate definition would seem to agree with you:

nonpareil: 1: an unrivaled or matchless person or thing.

what's wrong with raisinettes

Raisinettes are for poor and rubes so desperate to make candy they have to mix Chocolate with a health snack. SPK as number one is the clear winner, but snowcaps in the top five? WTF.

This, all the theaters in Austin serve booze so I always just play the how many doubles can I slam before the movie ends game. If I want a treat I will get a milkshake with booze, because this is America.
