Whereas I practiced long and hard to be able to roll well. XD We had a series of small slopes and lawns where I grew up. My record distance for rolling in a mostly straight line without stops was something like 400 feet. (I am at work, forgive me for not looking up a conversion chart? ;_; I'm lazy and do not have my link...)
Maybe JuJu Fruits? They are these theoretically fruit flavored, supposedly jelly-like candies, that are usually so hard that they are totally inedible. *nods*
I am, unfortunately, not joking. ^^; This was the main reason to buy the small!radish jujubees, actually. And? They bought them and froze them in summer. *snickers* Talk about glued jaw...but they were sweet and fruity and cold... ;_; I could not resist the icy-juju...boo-hoo.
Otherwise, probably aniseed balls - they are wonderful cinema food as you can throw them at people and cause serious damage, crunch them and make unbelievable amounts of noise, or you can feed them to small children, who are bewildered by the toughness and ... *Gasp* ... SHUT UP!
Is true. I think popcorn is de rigeur for throwing in the movie theatre.
I never heard of anything being rolled down the aisles. But I am also trying to think of something appropriately round and hard and am coming up with nothing. Maybe this is why M&M's are flat?
Things tend not to roll in uncarpetted cinemas. They might make it an inch or two before you hear a slight sucking noise and they stop. Usually takes a small chisel to move them again.
See, why I said parents/grandparents. In ye olden days, theatres were not carpetted. Australians of yore rolled jaffas. Now they're (mostly) carpetted, and we cannot.
