Portland's Reel Eats fuses food and film for a multi-sensory experience
Who doesn’t love stuffing their face with copious amounts of snacks while watching movies?
One might even argue that snacks are the most important part of the entire cinema theatre experience; watching Tom Cruise leap from one building to the next just feels more intense when you’re also choking on popcorn kernels.
Next month, the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry is bringing a fascinating blend of film and food to the public.
Reel Eats taps into the senses using both cinema and cuisine. Before watching the movie, attendees are handed numbered boxes with curated bites that match key moments in the film and are expected to be eaten at specific moments of the movie. This combination of cinema and cuisine electrifies the narrative of the movie in a powerful way.
