I agree with all of it. All I got to say is this is probably the cheapest video that they made. Just a quick 5-minute trip to Dollar tree and boom you have this video.
I'm glad that he's gotten more casual as times gone on. He used to be so professional and shit. And it worked at the time. He's always been on top of his channel, content, and character and tweaked things as they went on. The world is ready for Babish to let his metaphorical hair down, hence the painted nails being a thing these days.
i prefer the other Babish. This reminds me of talking heads on ESPN. I much prefer the clam chill demeaner because we have too much of the opposite online.
I love how Andrew has gotten more lighthearted and open in the past couple of years. At the start of his channel he was so serious and closed off, it really shows how much he loves what he's doing and how much his life has improved since he started. ❤
How can he throw away Raisinets, they're better than cookie dough bites . My two favorites are Raisinets & Milk Duds mixed with extra butter popcorn😍🍫 🍿
In the land of gummy bear (Germany) gummies are always hard and whatever ingredients they outlawed there make them a hundred times better then the ones in the US! They sort of have a gummy shell and the pull stretch and hard chew is out of this world
I always have a giant costco sized bag of gummi bears or worms in my car under the seat unless its super hot during the middle of the summer. this allows them to stay cool and age giving me the perfectly chewy gummy snack on the go
Me and my family have always had this understanding when going to the movies, always buy the popcorn to distract the theater staff from suspicious bulges in your pockets. The ideal thing to do is get a bagged candy, cut the packaging slightly and squeeze the air out to minimize volume. If I'm feeling ballsy and it's slightly colder out I can sneak a canned beverage in and wait carefully for a loud musical sting during the trailers to crack one open. The wildest I've gotten was sneaking several value menu Taco Bell burritos into the theater (wrapped with extra foil after the fact to contain the stench).
If you're at a good movie theater they should offer you the option but cold junior mints are godly. Also totally agree on buying popcorn to distract from bringing in your own candy. My mom trained me in the ways of perfectly loading a mom purse with candy from the dollar store. Also screw cap bottled sodas are slightly quieter to sneak in especially in a purse. Extra points if you pre open it and take a sip or two to add some rum to your bottled coke. I had a friend who would bring in a tiny bottle of flavored vodka in her pocket and add half to her movie icee.
I once smuggled in a fast food burger in my purse. Hey, I still bought popcorn and a ridiculously expensive bottle of water from them, but I needed sustenance! I was going to be sitting in the theatre for over 3 hours watching the second Lord of the Rings movie! I knew I'd get hungry for more than just a snack, lol.
My two daughters my one daughter's friend and I all went to go see a tornado movie that I can't remember the name of. I had a giant purse full of McNuggets fries and sodas. And not just no measly four-piece nuggets either.. We each had a full 10-piece box. I don't like eating candy at the movies. I just want popcorn that I know I will get heartburn from an hour later.
pro tip to smuggle any form of large bag in. Big jacket and tuck the top end of the bag under your armpit and keep your arm pressed to your side to keep the bag from falling down mid ticket check. Little bit risky but pays off
Popcorn is the winner of any matchup because it is ubiquitous with movie watching. That being said, I do enjoy a tray of pretzel bites with cheese every few movies.
@@tomleonard830 While my German heritage would agree that pretzels & mustard are an amazing combo, I am a Wisconsinite first so I must disagree and say nothing is greater than cheese.
As a former movie theater worker, we had junior mints and in a three month period, I might have sold 6 boxes. They are quite unpopular and that's why we kept a limited stock. The one candy we always ran out of was whoppers.
Yeah as a movie theater employee for 5 years 10 years ago, I know this guy is full of shit with this list and all real employees know this shit is the weirdest marketing sell out I’ve ever seen.
I'm amazed that people even buy theater candy anymore. Everyone I know brings their own candy for $1 from the grocery store. No way I'm paying $5 for M&Ms. Go f*ck yourself AMC.
@@partyboat123 doubt it's a "sellout" thing, so much as a generational thing. I grew up with everyone around me buying junior mints, and I was at the theater twice a week most of the time because my dad put up the roof signs and we got in for free. Anecdotal sure, but same holds true for your comment. My guess is he's simply basing his opinions and choices on the same info the rest of us are: anecdotes and our own personal experiences growing up. I also am willing to bet it's in part a geographical thing, but who knows 🤷🏻
I have sadly raised a psychopath who will order nachos with no cheese at the movie theater. He says the cheese is nasty but the hot crappy chips are amazing. They never give him a discount, either. $6 for a plate of chips. SMDH.
Gonna be real, my Theater snacks of choice are Malt Chocolate Balls (Maltesers or Whoppers) and the prepackaged Nachos. I absolutely HATE when popcorn kernels fragments decide to spot weld themselves on the back of my tongue and continue to annoy me for the next century. Buttered Theater popcorn is delicious, but the risks outweigh the rewards.
Whenever I buy Haribo gummy bears, I always do the "feel check" to see how stale they are. Usually the ones towards the back of the rack are the oldest, so I always get those. Glad to hear that I'm not the only one that likes them that way.
I don’t know how anyone could pick Twizzlers and their glossy, waxy, plasticky, vaguely cherry-tasting consistency over the sweet, mellow flavor and soft chewy texture of Red Vines
My first job was a movie theater. They filled the popcorn case with sometimes day old popcorn and told us to do extra "butter" which was better flavored oil containing no butter!
Finally someone else who liked stale candy...stale haribo gummy are the best 👍 you should give stale red vines a try, they are much better than fresh ones
Sno-caps are by far the best (Buncha Crunches are a distant second). Jr. Mints are good, but not a good movie snack. Sno-caps are good on their own or mixed into your popcorn. Nothing in them gets stuck in your teeth thereby distracting you from the movie. And finally, they're not messy: the white "sno" bits don't melt onto your clothes; the chocolate is light enough that, if you do happen to drop one (unlikely because of the grip enhancing "sno" bits), they just sluff off of you into the floor; and they don't have any wet and/or gooey bits that will get on you clothes/face when you're eating them in a dark movie theater. Sno-caps are the best for a movie!
Babish: "I'm not going to the movie theater to eat vegetables." Raisinets: I'm a chocolate covered fruit my guy Babish: ~eats popcorn~ Popcorn: I got 'im to eat vegetables mwahahahaha
