Filmi Food
Samosas (The Hindu Online)
Quick - what’s the world’s most popular movie theater food? If you guessed popcorn, you’re wrong. According to this video clip from ABC World News Tonight, it’s more than likely a desi snack like samosa or papdi chat. While this segment highlights the culinary offerings at a Bollywood movie night in a suburban New Jersey theater, we at Nirali wonder if the trend might not cross over and become standard fare at theaters serving areas with large South Asian populations. What do you think?
