The top stars in entertainment ascended onto Hollywood on Sunday night for the 2026 Oscars at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California. It was a night for the A-listers, so when the “Oscars Snack Box” went viral online, fans were stunned to see what the global stars munched on throughout the night.
Each guest received a snack box under their seat to enjoy throughout the night. While you may think the elite were feasting on luxury snacks, it was nothing more than some modest movie theater snacks, which is appropriate for the occasion.
The boxes were filled with a bag of popcorn, a bottle of water, Raisinets, and either Mike and Ike’s or Junior Mints. They also included a light-up bracelet that guests were asked to wear for a performance of the hit song “Golden” by Huntrix later in the night. The song went on to win the Oscar for Best Original Song.
Host Conan O’Brien added a bonus for each guest, with a letter that hilariously described the “Moderately Happy Meal” for the night.

Well played, Conan.
Some fans on X seemed to miss the joke. One fan called the snack box “embarrassing,” while another commented, “It’s giving Fyre Festival.”
In the end, it’s all in good fun, and don’t worry: the A-listers ate well. That’s what the after parties are for.
