I tried to access her guide to sandwiches but my virus checker popped up and said the site had a virus on it. So go at your own risk.

Dijon Mustard/Grey Poupon Is Not Elitist

That guy needs to go back to grading papers and stop worrying about what kind of mustard the President eats.

I can't stop thinking about Bittman's turkey. I think I'm going to try that this year!

The Honey-Brined and Smoked Turkey sounds like a winner to me! I'll probably do it on the Weber, occasionally adding a few pieces of wood to the coals. I can't wait!

The Brussels Sprouts and Apples with Brown Mutter and Cream look amazing.

@nrkelly: Been trying to fix that (contacted my host), but haven't figure out how yet. :[ Strangely, it doesn't seem to affect most people's computers (like mine), but I've been told which parts of my site are infected.

Large Movie Popcorn with Butter: 1,220 Calories

Just to clear up a previous post with the glamour.com link -- If you read the article, the person had extra doses of butter added to the regular amount of butter. The 500 calorie small popcorn was the one without extra butter, however it still had the regular amount of butter.

Unbuttered popcorn (popped in oil) only has 55 calories per cup.

My friends and I sneak in burritos and chips from the mexican place across the way. YUMMM!
If not that, then I usually just grab a bottle of water and buy some kind of candy at the concession stand. I used to, without fail, buy cherry coke but that was before they changed a small to about a gallon and make it 4.25. Siigh.

Since I've moved out to Los Angeles it seems like sneaking food into a theater here hasn't been that big of a deal. The theater I usually go to is part of an outdoor mall area with several different food establishments surrounding it. We almost always go eat before we go to a movie, and if I have a diet coke from Rubio's in my hand as I go into the movie, no one seems to mind. So maybe it's a little different out here?

As for food, I've brought in a subway sandwich before, squished down in my not-so-large purse. And no, it wasn't a five dollar footlong.

It wasn't sneaking so much as I bought it and stuck it in my bag, a large pack of Starburst (years ago when I still ate candy). The ticket taker asked me to open my bag and it was on top, and I was like oh shoot. It was especially annoying because the movie was starting and we'd parked pretty far, so BF shoved it under his shirt (we walked outside) and we went back in. That really annoyed me, but I understand - they sell Starburst at the theater.
Another time, we'd just gone to Dunkin' Donuts (for him), and he was holding the bag, the ticket taker was like "You can't bring that in." So BF put it under his shirt and said "Ok how about now?" using the logic that they don't sell donuts there, and he wanted a donut, but the ticket taker was like no. So he went outside and stuffed it under his shirt more carefully and went in.
Is it just us who gets searched/stopped? lol I swear we don't look like we're carrying anything in particular! I have occasionally tossed sweets into my bag but not for the movie. Lately, when we go to the movies, we just pay for the concessions there because it's easier and because the way he sees it, it is a night out and you might as well just pay - like being on vacation and paying for things you normally wouldn't. (Clearly, we have no children yet - I imagine all snacks will be packed into my bag before movie trips with children.)

I always sneek in food. I just can't bring myself to pay those inflated prices. My cache usually includes Dollar Store movie candy, homemade cookies or bars, water and cheddar popcorn.
