      Popcorn here.... We even have an 8 oz. kettle popper in the movie room upstairs. Right next to that is a 6-head soda dispenser/ice machine that I got for free from a friend when he closed down his restaurant and a roller-grill. I also keep an air fryer/oven up there to make fries, pizza rolls, pretzels, etc.

      It's a really big room, something like 1,100 sq ft, so the front 2/3 of the room is set up for movies, and I have a game table in the other 1/3, so it gets quite a bit of use. Friends keep trying to convince me to put in a beer tap, but I am a teetotaler, and I just keep a few beers in the fridge for guests.

        I am speechless. What a set up. I don’t know if you qualify, but you may be a junk food junkie. LOL The 6-heard soda dispenser makes me wonder if you drink a lot of soda or throw a lot of parties which in that case would make not a junkie but a party animal. LOL Could you put the beer tap in and charge admission? Keep having fun!

        LA Pork Butt I drink more than my fair share of soda (Coke Zero). Like any good southerner though, it's always sweet tea at supper. Though the kids are always having friends over, and the speed at which I go through Mt. Dew and Sprite makes me wonder if I have a very large leak somewhere. I mostly stick to Fri/Sat night tabletop games with some friends, so not quite the party animal!

      We usually do a couple of different snacks during a couple of games. Not much alcohol by me anymore as just a sip of any type of alcohol make me sick to my stomach. On the plus side, no alcohol for me is saving a ton of money. The wife might have a beer or glass of wine.

          I like the Utz tube of random pretzel pieces and snack pieces. If we snack it's usually a charcuterie and cheese board I put together. If we're watching a game it can include some hot pretzel bites with warm beer cheese (Aldi find) and always contains wine. Lots and lots of red wine.

                  About the only time that I snack is when driving my pickup…occasionally. That’s mostly out of boredom though. (And trying to put as many miles behind me as I can.) I NEVER snack in my car…but then, that’s a potential mess because unless it’s raining, the top is down. LOL

                  We never snack when watching TV…but will occasionally get out some cheese & crackers, or chips & guacamole, and the like, when playing video games. Especially if we’re having a marathon golf sim kinda afternoon.

                  As for sports…the boy watches baseball (mostly in the game room), I watch cricket & football/soccer (mostly on my iPad before anyone else is even awake), and the GF barely puts up with any of them.
