Cracker Jack memories... When I think of my childhood and candy, the first thing I think of is cracker jacks! I used to beg for a box of cracker jacks every time we went to the store. They used to always have them by the checkout lanes. I loved the crunchy caramel popcorn, but the big excitement was the prize! How I loved seeing what little booklet of tattoos I got. I used to prolong the thrill by forcing myself not to dig for it. I'd make myself eat 'til I got to it. It is so sad that I never come across cracker jacks in the store anymore. I would love to introduce my young daughter to a favorite of my childhood. ~ Erika from Ohio
