On WTF today, together with the You're My Favorite Team, I was out on a mission to find the best movie time snack, and I had to stick to a tight budget, and kept it to just Rs.500, so my Titanic movie night ended up with a full stomach. I love what Sri Lanka has to offer.
1. CROWN – GOLDEN RINGS
Amount – Rs.50
Made By – Crown Sweety Products (PVT) Ltd
In one word if I had to describe it, it smelt like Breaking Wind, but tasted good.
Rating - **
2. RUBI – FAMILY PACK SNACKS
Amount – Rs.50
Made By – A.M.L Universal Trading Company (PVT) Ltd
It’s a good choice. They have tried to copy the TipTip Onion Snacks, only on the cover but kept the shape to the circle inside.
Rating - **
3. CBL – Ramba Pizza Flavour
Amount – Rs.30
Made By – CBL- Convenience Foods (Lanka) (PVT) Ltd
They say it’s not fried, but baked - best choice, it’s great!
Rating - *****
4. Ruwani Kumari Quality Bites – Fried Rings
Amount – Rs.30
The best, it’s papadam fried, with a dash of chillie - great flavour!
Rating - ****
5. Uswalle – Tipi Tip
Amount – Rs.30 (small)
I think it's every Sri Lankan child's favourite, and you will always love it.

6. Ruwani Kumari Quality Bites – Pop Corn
Amount – Rs.30 (small)
The usual, nothing so special.
Rating - ***
7. Mr. Pop – Classic
Amount – Rs.30
Made By – Shaw Wallace, Ceylon, Ltd
Love it, and the crunch is nice. I don't know if you remember that they used to give a top with each packet back in the day, and I think they need to bring it back!

8. Diana – TIKKA Cheese Balls
Amount – Rs.10
Made By – Diana Chocolates (PVT) Ltd
Tacky packaging, treble animation, and I think they should ONLY stick to chocolate.
Rating - *
9. RUKAIAHA PRODUCTS – FRIED RINGS
Amount – Rs.30
Made By – RUKAIAHA PRODUCTS, Church Street, Colombo 2
I think they just fried it, with no love or care, and this is not a good choice.
Rating - *
10. AMAL GRAM STORE
Finally I met Prashanth from AMAL Gram Store who have been in business since 1960, and they have a wide range of products. Everything is fried and everything is nice.
I got all these for an amount of Rs.150.
Bathala (Sweet Potato) – Super
Sweet Rings – Full of colours, and not my thing
Fried Ash Plantain – Super
Garlic Murukku – Great but please don’t kiss anyone after eating this!
