Movie Theatre Snacks: healthy alternatives

So I was thinking of going to the movies on this Memorial Day.  I usually don't like to spend $6 on raisinets and another $6 on soda or whatnot.  So, what I've got in the habit of doing is buying bulk almonds and sunflower seeds at grocery stores and then putting them in a ziplock bag.  Beats the hell out of eating shitty unhealthy food and also saves some money.  I'm going to see Fast 6 with my brother, so make your jokes, because I thoroughly enjoy these movies now that they've made them heist movies and not just about speedy cars in quarter mile laps in a city.

A Fist Full of Almonds

Almonds.  They are delicious.  They are small.  And they are probably one of the best things you can include in your diet that will help out in the healthy department.  After a workout, I usually make a cup of tea and grab a fist full of almonds, which is surprisingly the amount in a regular serving size (about 26-28 almonds).  They taste great.  In butter form is probably the best form ever.  Almond butter is healthy as hell, full of fiber, low in sugars and has plenty of those little nutrients we all forget about (Monounsaturated Fat and Polyunsaturated Fats).  I buy them in bulk, which saves about 90 cents.  I don't think I'll go back to eating peanut butter, mainly because almond butter is becoming more and more popular and is just better for you.  Peanut butter is high in sugar, bad fat content, and cholesterol.  Almond butter is pretty much the opposite, and when you read the ingredients in almond butter, there's only one.  Almonds.
