Seriously, we just don’t get it. Why do people eat these?
Coke flavor. I’ll devour an entire bag of popcorn before the previews start rolling. Giant pretzel? Twizzlers? Nachos with unearthly artificial cheese? Yes, yes, and yes. One time, when I was really hungry, I even ate a movie theater hot dog. But I never eat Sno-Caps. Ever. They are the worst of the worst of movie theater concessions.
Sno-Caps, if you have been fortunate enough to avoid them in your life, are described on their box as “semi-sweet chocolate nonpareils.” Nonpareils are the little white sugar balls on top. Especially in the dark of a movie theater, they give these little chocolate mounds appearance of a tiny, snow-covered mountain — hence Sno-Cap. I will concede that the name is mildly clever.
Any affection I have towards this candy ends there. Right off the bat there’s a problem: By their own admission, Sno-Caps are made of “semi-sweet” chocolate. They are as advertised. The chocolate isn’t sweet or rich or creamy. The nonpareils add nothing to the flavor and give the whole experience a gritty, off-putting texture. Pop a bunch in your mouth at once, and it feels like you’re chewing a handful of mud that’s been coated with sand.
I’m sure Sno-Caps were a groundbreaking food for the 1920s. 100 years later, we can do better. I suppose Nestlé could theoretically update Sno-Caps’ quality to bring them more in line with modern standards, but thus far they haven’t. Pretty much any of the other candies sold at the movie theater offer a better tasting chocolate without the “bonus” of those little edible packing peanuts on top.
Some boxes of Sno-Caps announce that they are “Still 25% Less Fat” than “the leading chocolate brands.” Even if that is true, it still makes Sno-Caps a poor deal. You get 25% less fat and at least 80% less taste. Would you rather eat 75 calories you won’t enjoy or 100 calories you will? That’s an easy choice.must be eating Sno-Caps; no theater would continue to stock them for decades if the boxes didn’t sell.
