- There is little unintentional comedy in an intentionally funny movie, so the award becomes favorite Brad Pitt snack; the list: nachos outside the LA bar, popcorn at the circus, a frozen fruit parfait or custard at the racetrack, a salad in the hotel room, a lollipop outside the strip club, shrimp cocktail (over 100 shrimp eaten across takes), ice cream at the casino, a burger or gyro outside the prison, and candy in the hotel room.
- Picks: nachos, for the way he shuttles things into his mouth; shrimp cocktail with the little bowl of sauce in the lobby, a way one host would love to live; candy, from one with a self-described unhealthy relationship with it; and the burger on the freeway, because the moment of heartburn grounds the movie in realism.
