Hello, i am working in a cinema and we are trying to replace the snacks we have with european and maybe a little more fair alternatives.

Do you have other ideas on what snacks to use as alternative that might be a bit more similar in the looks? (For example coke is pretty easy as fritz-cola looks and sounds very similar in name)
