I loved opening the box and finding the prize inside. I would always stick my greedy little fingers in the box and pull out the prize before I started eating. I would open it up and, regardless, of what it was I was thrilled. Then I had all that popcorn and peanuts to eat.
Now Cracker Jack snacks is offering enhanced prizes. The new stickers come with fun facts and digital codes that unlock surprises online through a free Cracker Jack-branded app featuring two nostalgic games (Baseball and Pinball).I am jealous.
As I got older, I quit my Cracker Jack obsession. But, I rediscovered it again when I started attending
Dodger games in my teens. I always grabbed a Dodger dog, Coke and Cracker Jack for dessert. Years later, I still love Cracker Jack. I don't eat that much of it but every once in a while, especially at the airport, I grab a bag!
The new flavors are Butter Toffee and Kettle Corn. I tried both. My favorite of the new flavors was the Butter Toffee because it was sweet and creamy. The Kettle Corn was good. But I have to say that the Original flavor is still my favorite. It will always hold a special place in my heart because it reminds me of my childhood and those Saturday morning with my sister.
Now you can create new memories with these new flavors. If you would like to win some of the new Cracker Jack brand flavors and, of course, the Original flavor you can! I have a 6 pack of the new flavors and the original flavor for one lucky reader. Just enter on the Rafflecopter widget below.
