Ecological at the movies

No more Sno Caps, Raisenets or Milk duds .. organic snacks are making it into movie theaters in Sweden. 

  • KRAV-marked snacks (meaning they're ecological) can now be bought at a handful Swedish movie theaters.
  • There's a rustle among the paper bags filled with candy at the Swedish movie theaters—let’s have a look at what’s inside: The drinks, candy and baked goods sold at the concession stands inside Swedish movie theaters are selling more and more KRAV-marked goods. KRAV is the Swedish organization that develops and maintains regulations for ecologically sustainable agriculture. KRAV is a member of International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements.

  • Organic potatoes, sea salt ... chips can be ecological yes but healthy..?
  • Bio Rio, a movie theater in Stockholm, Bio Roy in Göteborg, Spegeln in Malmö and Helsingborg’s Röda Kvarn were first out with KRAV goods. These four movie theaters are certified with a brand, which means that at least 15 products, or 25 percent of the assortment, is marked with KRAV. The ceiling is set at three marks, a sign that at least 90 percent of the drinks and products are approved by KRAV. SF (svensk Filmindustri), has increased its assortment with selected varieties of Renée Voltaire’s so-called healthy sweets. Now the question is who will be first with a rustle-free candy bag?
