Popcorn and cinema, an inseparable story: why we don't watch a film without snacking

Popcorn is the inseparable companion of cinema. Without it, the experience would not be complete.

An American tradition

Popcorn and cinema are a love story dating back to the 1929 crash. During the crisis, cinemas wanted to attract people. Vendors sold popcorn outside the halls, then cinemas started doing it themselves. It worked.

Why we love popcorn at the cinema

  • The sound — The crunch adds to the auditory pleasure
  • The gesture — Grabbing a handful is ritualized
  • The sugar — Caramel is the best variant
Did you know? Popcorn is the main source of profit for American cinemas.

Conclusion

Popcorn + cinema = magic. Outdoors, it's even better. Try it and see. 🍿🎬
