I will teach my children, if I ever have any, to eat at the movies.
My girlfriend and I always try to support our local theater by getting as much concessions as possible. Movie theaters are a very important part of my life and I don’t want them to die. A movie ticket wouldn’t fund a thing, especially with inflation now.
- hombre_fatal 4y agoDoesn't seem that great to teach your kids to eat some of the worst food just to support a venue. It also sounds like self-deceit tbh. "Totally just eating this slurpee and vegetable oil 'butter' popcorn to support the local theater!"
- el_benhameen 4y agoYou can teach them that it’s a special, infrequent thing. My kids eat lots of fruits and vegetables and I don’t keep junk food around the house. But for me, shitty theater popcorn is part of the experience, and we go to the movies rarely enough that it’s easy to say “hey, this stuff isn’t good for you so we’re not going to have a lot, but let’s enjoy ourselves now and then”.
