So can food and cinema ever mix? Well, Edible Cinema is one example that succeeds in an interesting way. When the audience arrives they are given a small tray containing eight closed boxes. During the film, a light at the side of the room tells you when to open and eat the contents of each box. Edible Cinema aren’t trying to fill your stomach, or even give you a tasty snack. The food is weird, even shocking, and is designed to make you think about the characters’ emotions or the scenery. This is not a cheap night out (tickets were £38 and I had to eat some dinner at home afterwards) but I’ve been talking about my Edible Cinema experience for months now, and I’ve been watching social media to find out where their next screening will be. If you’re a ‘foodie’ or a cinema fan, I recommend giving it a try. Q7. Only ‘foodies’ will enjoy Edible Cinema. *
