roughage to tone up the digestive system An excellent reason to indulge in this treat!

Crackers for dessert?!

Cracker Jack isn't actually crackers, it was an early form of caramel corn with peanuts.

What gets me is the part of the ad that says "have it for breakfast with milk or cream - you don't need to add sugar!" Umm yeah, even without added sugar your kids will be bouncing off the walls... And that is not a healthy breakfast!

Oh, lol! I didn't read the ad properly. Caramel corn for breakfast? Imagine the sugar crash.

What a great find!! I have to admit though I find the huge Cracker Jack somewhat frightening!

"Candy coated popcorn, peanuts and a prize! That's what you get with Cracker Jack!" Great stuff, but that giant Jack is weird...
