Movie Theatre Popcorn

Tonight I have plans to go and see a movie with a girlfriend. Our usual habit has always been to treat ourselves to a shared medium popcorn and a diet coke.  Somehow, I do not think that having the “usual” qualifies as local, organic or even nutritious for that matter.

Any alternative suggestions?

UPDATE: I just returned from the movies and I am proud to say that in the face of buttery temptation, I opted for a Chai and roasted almonds. Thanks for the suggestion, Meghan!

    Nuts… As in YOU are nuts if you don’t go for the buttery deliciousness, melty in your mouthness radness of popped corn covered in delightful chemicals! Scrum-diddly-umptious!

    We usually bring something with us, though I know you’re not supposed to. If I do buy something there, I love hot pretzels (without the butter and extra salt).

    That actually sounds delicious right now. What movie did you see?

    It was pretty good! I saw Slumdog Millionaire–it was excellent!

Grain of the Week: MILLET is a tiny, round grain that can be white, gray, yellow or red. Like barley, it can be pearled and hulled, but it can also be cracked and this is often how it is found in cereals. Millet is a great source of phosphorous and magnesium. Phosphorus plays a roll in virtually every cell in the body. Phosphorus also helps the body to metabolise fats. A cup of cooked millet provides approximately 24.0% of the daily phosphorus needs. Plain, cooked (boiled) millet can be a bit bland--be sure to season your millet well.
