Cracker Jack Boxes are an irresistible treat and as much a sign that Spring is coming as the tulips coming into bloom. These days, these classic popcorn boxes are almost impossible to find as distribution is very limited.
This is the original caramel-covered popcorn with delicious coated peanuts that sweet teeth have been craving for over a century. This is a classic American snack by Frito Lay and is rather popular today and, yes, despite living in the era of change, the formula remains the same and the prize still remains.
Did you know these beloved treats were first introduced in 1893 at the Columbian World's Far held in Chicago? The picture on the right is from a box of Cracker Jacks dating back to the 1940s!

Nothing like the old days. If there were 5 peanuts in the bag I'd be shocked

That waxed box has many practical uses
Kept things dry in wet parts of the world, since The Spanish America War.
Ask any Vet!
The waxed cardboard could be used as FUEL to warm one's Nescafe!
Heat up a C-Ration.
Sterilize a blade for surgery
Save one from frostbite...
And hundreds of other field uses!
My uncles swore by them.
France, Belgium and on both oceans.
What a great review! Thanks for sharing this information that so clearly ties candy with history!

Cracker Jacks
Needs bigger portion. Too small! Too many hard pieces. Will order something else next time.
To my knowledge, the portion size has remained the same for the past few years but,m with that said, one can never have too many Cracker Jacks. Thanks for the feedback and we will be sure to pass this on to the manufacturer...

Everything Wonderful...Fresh always, Deliver Quick. The only think was the order was large & in one bag would have liked in two bags. Recommend to everyone...Thank you Always
A favorite of WW II soldiers. Good reason. Less sweet than modern candies, the mixture of dark chocolates, molasses and peanuts is just right, in my opinion.

I never received this order, got the raspberry candy and am happy with them but am very disappointed that the chocolate filled candy must have gotten lost.
