Sound Off: What's the Best Thing You Ever Bought and Ate Inside a Movie Theater?

It's almost impossible for many of us to sit down in a movie theater and not have a little something to munch on during the show, be it your standard popcorn or a few pieces of candy. Over the years, however, theaters have greatly expanded their menus to include all sorts of tasty food -- the kind that almost always catches our eye as we stroll past the concession stands on our way inside.

From chicken fingers and curly fries to mozzarella sticks and fancy milkshakes, movie theaters large and small are continually evolving their menus to cater to the things we'd like to snack on while watching the show. There are now entire chains that have worked the dining experience into their theater layouts, like the Alamo Drafthouse or AMC's Dine-In theaters, both of which offer extensive menus. But is any of it good? And is any of it so good you keep coming back for more?

Whether it's the perfect bag of popcorn or a complex desert, we want to know your choice for most memorable movie theater food, and where we can get our hands on it. Feel free to call out a snack available at almost all theaters (a buddy of mine loves those Milk Duds), or throw some love at a small, independent theater in your neck of the woods that's putting out some fabulous, unique treats. Either way, no answer is wrong here.

    A gourmet hot dog. Original, but VERY tasty. Got it from an AMC near Houston.

    The best thing I ate at a movie theatre is a drink of root beer, popcorn and cookies and cream bites
