I'm with you, RadishRose….I use to love popcorn, probably use to eat it every night....
And Pink Elephant, too! Yummy!
OMG, yes, that's the stuff! Was one of my childhood favourites!
I'm the same, Keesha, hearing the kernals of corn bouncing off the lid and they start popping, the mouth-watering delight that fills the air, takes me back to when my mom made old-fashioned stovetop popcorn for us kids. Making it the old-fashioned way just feels more rewarding to me. Love the hands-on method.
And wasn’t there a prize inside?
Yes! Been so long now, I'm trying to remember how the prize was packaged. If I remember correctly, in a box of Cracker Jack, the prize was wrapped in clear plastic, whereas in the Lucky Elephant box, the prize was loose in the box, and always at the bottom!
That’s how I remember it also. The Cracker Jack is sticky toffee coated so needed some protection I suppose whereas in the pink elephant popcorn the prize was usually at the bottom of the box. Prizes were always an added bonus. Isn’t it fun reminiscing about fun stuff we did as kids?
Fun it is, because even though I remember so much of my childhood, some things escape me, and it isn't until someone mentions something about something or another related to, or I see a picture of something related to the past, where my memory is like, YES, I remember that!
Never heard of that- is/was it regional???
I’d thought it was sold throughout North American thing but it’s actually just a Canadian product.
