    :)

    Do you like this combo?

    Say, in the cinema I love getting a large popcorn, and a packet of Minstrels or some other chocolate, and eating a sweet with a mouthful of popcorn.

    The salty/sweet combination is delicious.

    What say ye?

    Oh yes - in our house it has to be a bag of Maltesers thrown into the popcorn.
    Yum :)

    This rocks -
    Get popcorn in one of the UCIs (only ones that do butter)
    when you've eaten the top layer (~3ish inches) then put in the minstrels (the ONLY type of choc that should go in) bit of a shake..mmmmmmm sooooo frickin good

    *drool* I want it now

    I've eaten chocolate & sour cream and onion crisps before, the salt and chocolate did work very well together. Also, chocolate cornetto & sour cream and onion crisps go well too.

    popcorn + choco is excellent. Usually go with crispy m&m myself or malteasers.

    Hmmm, I usually eat my maltesers and minsterals seperately to my popcorn, every second turn. But obviously from that system there has been times the two have been in my mouth at the same time and it is nice!:)

    ever tried just going to the supermarket for them? you'll save thousands

    btw, it is indeed a taste sensation, and i wholeheartedly agree with the crunchie nuggets phenomenon.

    How many times would I be buying minstrels that I would "save thousands" by going to a supermarket? :rolleyes:

    My inherent laziness means that I buy them where I want them. :D

    Tis lush alright, but good cinema popcorn is getting rarer an rarer these days.


    If you like your sweet/salty combo, this will blow your mind. Go in to Maccers and get a large fries and hot caramel sundae. Proceed to dip the fries in the sundae as if its ketchup, nyom!!

    No no no! McDonalds chips and a HOT FUDGE sundae! And if you're feeling extra hungry, chicken nuggets too.

    I haven't been to McDonalds in years but that's made me want to go!

    Ugh I hate it! I remember when I worked in M&S, I used to love the chocolate covered peanuts but we weren't getting deleveries of them so I spent all day staring at the chocolate covered toffee popcorn when I was on the express tills. I gave in and bought them and ended up leaving most of the packet on my parents' bed in the hope that my dad would eat them!

    Yup, because you get the warm sauce and the cold ice-cream! I'm glad others like my chip and ice-cream thing because I've been told I'm weird.
