Candy coated popcorn
Peanuts and a prize
That’s what you get in Cracker Jacks.
That’s where my mind went. I once had a book of all the Cracker Jack prizes issued over the years. Mine favorites were by far the tattoos.
Have a fun-filled Saturday. We are off to see family today and celebrate hubby’s birthday!
Have a wonderful day Maggie.

I remember that silly song! And we loved Cracker Jacks. I got a diamond ring once, I’m pretty sure it was real.

I wonder if they still have the prize inside. I may just have to buy some crackerjacks to find out.

It was a great day, Peter. Cracker Jacks w’re synonymous with the childhood American kids in the 50s and 60s.

They were never sold here in England, so this is new to me. Have a lovely family time, Maggie.
Best wishes, Pete.

Looks like you and I went in the same direction. Thoe commercials with Jack Gilford were classics.

I haven’t heard that Cracker Jack jingle in decades. Oh I loved that stuff back in the day, but not so much now. Thanks for the throwback.

You made me remember fighting with my brother over the prize. We must have only had one box between us. Not a good idea!

The last Crackerjack-like experience I had sent me to the dentist with a cracked tooth. Sad there wasn’t a replacement tooth prize in the box!
