Why You Shouldn T Sneak In Food Into Movie Theaters

Is movie food really worth the price? Today, people all over the world are sneaking food into movie theaters because it is cheaper. Yes, it is ok, what is the big deal? In the article, “Is it OK to sneak food into the movies?”, O’Neill states, “Why pay $5 for M&Ms when you can get them for several dollars cheaper at the corner store (16).” He also states, “... you’re already forking over big bucks for your ticket (O’Neill 16).”

1. “Hundreds of millions of people buy fast food every day without giving it much thought, unaware of the subtle and not so subtle ramifications of their purchases. They rarely consider where this food came from, how it was made, what it is doing to the community around them. They just grab their tray off the counter, find a table, take a seat, unwrap the paper, and dig in” (Schlosser 10).

The story of the drive-in movie theater begins with one man. That man was Richard Milton Hollingshead, Jr., born on February 25, 1900, the "father" of the drive-in.

Is it alright to sneak outside food into the movies? Many theaters banned it because it was affecting the amounts of money they earned. Why ban outside food from the movies. I believe that if it says no outside food than that means you shouldn’t try sneaking in food because that is bad. I also believe that if they don’t want people sneaking in food than why won’t they stop charging so much for a candy bar. Some people would like healthy food such as our elders or diabetics.

Sneaking food into the movies are okay, in my opinion. To other people, it is not such a good idea. People who own movie theaters are getting angry at people sneaking food.

When you get hungry, your gonna want your food right then at that moment. Then you may start to think, how war will I have to walk just to get my food? Or you may think that you shouldn’t have went so far from the food spots. Everyone has a big passion for food. The quality of the food is what almost everyone looks at. Or they even look at how it smells, taste, etc. Now what makes everyone upset is the price of the food. A single hot dog would be like $10. Who does that, it’s too much money for a hot dog.

One reason that you might bring your own snacks is that the snacks are really, really overpriced. This is an excerpt from the article we read a few days ago, “Why pay 5$ for M&M's when you can get them for several dollars cheaper at the corner store?...a Michigan man named Joshua Thompson sued his local AMC theater for banning outside food...the ban violated a state law that prohibits ‘price gouging’”. As it said in the text, some theaters are forcing you to buy overpriced junk food by banning outside food. That is really mean. Some people might even say it’s illegal to ban people from doing that like Joshua Thompson.

In 2009 a movie by the name of Food Inc. was released that challenged the production of food we eat. The movie examines everything from the science of seeds all the way through the consumption of the food, the food’s often negative effects on the body. The movie ends with the line “You can change the world with every bite”. This quote embodies the heart behind movie that change starts with the individual, and how they make food choices. This sort of change that Food Inc. invokes implies that top down change that the consumer can bring about change to the seed level. Food Inc. challenges the processes that allow companies like Monsanto to feed the world. We must understand how media like Food Inc. effects this mission to feed the world by examining the movie, the history of Monsanto as a company, and looking at the response from both sides to these challenges made in the public square to better combat and address issues brought forth.

Book Review: ‘Why does popcorn cost so much at the movies: and other pricing puzzles’ by Richard B. McKenzie

"Fast food is popular because it 's convenient, it 's cheap, and it tastes good. But the real cost of eating fast food never appears on the menu," was said by Eric Schlosser. Several people in America have become dependent on fast foods. How many of the people who eat this food actually know what is really in the food or how it was made? Others don 't think about it, because within ordering, three minutes later a customer can pull up to the window, pay, and get food. It is quick and cheap. The United States has become dependent on fast foods because they are everywhere, but the consequences of these facilities have brought health issues and closing of community restaurants.

So instead they bring their families unhealthy, greasy, oily, damaging food that is bad for you and your health.

go too, the cost of the movie, and visiting the concession stand, which is over-rated and over-priced, but I do love some theater pop-corn. Assume a family of two (one adult) (one child)

Some theaters give people and option to go movie hopping where one can see as many movies

Imagine coming home after a long day at school when you can practically taste the leftovers you hid in the fridge the night before, only to find that they aren’t there. I don’t know if this has happened to you, but it happens to me all the time, and it’s probably one of the most infuriating and disappointing things ever. Infuriating because I know somebody ate it when I asked them not to, and disappointing because that food was the only thing I’d been looking forward to all day.  Now, try to imagine this happening every day, breakfast, lunch, and dinner, for days, weeks, and months on end. Unfortunately, for some this is more than just a scenario we were asked to imagine, it’s a reality. This is food insecurity. Food insecurity

The fast food empire is one of the largest and highest earning industries in the world. Yet even with the lime light constantly on it, fast food organizations continue to poorly treat workers, serve unhealthy food and find ways to carry out corrupt business. This paper will discuss these hidden secrets and also compare and contrast the differences in the book “Fast Food Nation” and the movie “Fast Food Nation”. The book and movie follow the same ideas but both uniquely describe and display the workings behind the fast food business, thus giving the widest possible perspective on the industry. By examining the images of the movie and the descriptions of the book, we can truly see why the United States has become a fast food nation.
