Watching movies is a great way to chill, relax and even learn a little, depending on the kind of movies you're seeing. There are, however, so many other snacks you could try. So here are five snacks to eat during a movie apart from popcorn.

Plantain chips are thinly sliced fried plantain (ripe or unripe) that are crunchy and it is just the perfect snack for movie time. Also known as kpekere, this sweet snack also has some nutritional benefits including serving as a good source of vitamin A and C.

Nuts are also good snacks to devour when you're Netflix-ing and chilling. A good way to make this more exciting is when you mix different nuts together such as groundnuts, cashew nuts and almond nuts. Your mouth wouldn't be sure what it is getting every time your hand goes into the bowl.

Eating a fruit salad during a movie is definitely a healthy option. Fruits contain natural sugar and it is easier for the body to break it down. Some fruits you could mix to make a fruit salad include banana, watermelon, pawpaw all chopped and iced if you like.
