Why hasn't Nestle made a new product combining Raisinettes and Goobers in the same box? Goobinettes? Raisers? Raisoobers?

       Could you explain what raisinettes and Goobers are please? Ta.
—Lemon, Aug 02 2000
   

       Chocolate-covered raisins and chocolate-covered peanuts, respectively (if my memory serves; it's been ages since I spent money on cinema food).

       I'd say the reason is that they'd stand to lose money.   

       If you'd buy raisinettes AND goobers in the same box, then you'd definitely buy raisinettes OR goobers alone at least, and might even buy raisinettes AND goobers in two different boxes.

       Because then you'd shake them out, eat them together, and it would be like eating a chocolate/ peanut/raisin cluster, so why not just sell those instead.

       Good idea. Truly. But I hope you guys aren't paying those high prices. I always just bring my own goodies to the theatre.

       There's no need to really smuggle it, either. Especially at daytime shows. My friend once set his can of Pringles and bottle of Pepsi on the counter while he dug out his money to buy his ticket, and then picked them up again and walked in.

       I am almost certain that such a product exists. Its name escapes me. I bought them in Preston (Lancs) once. But surely it can't be _that_ difficult to mix them together in a bag?

       What's 'Turkish delight'? It sounds like something you might see in a pr0n movie...
—StarChaser, Apr 07 2001
   

       Or make your own (see link).

       Yum turkish delight!   

       It is possible to buy choclate covered raisins and peanuts in the same packet, but it's really more of a health food shop thing, although it's not not really that healthy.
