Gaining weight at the movies

We all love going to the movies, and especially munching on the wonderful snacks that are available to us, while we are there...
Range of snacks
Popcorn and cooldrinks always seem to top the list as the most popular snacks purchased at the movies. And don’t forget the delicious flavours to choose from – there’s salt, butter, cheese, sour cream... the list goes on!
Then there’s the range of chocolate bars and sweets, all of which are loaded with calories and/or fat.
Interesting statistics
According to Reader’s Digest, most people eat 45% more popcorn from large-size containers.
Next time you plan to spend the day or night at the movies, try and purchase some iced water instead of cooldrinks and go for a small box of popcorn instead of a large one (skip the butter too, if possible!). You could save up to 350 calories!
