In 1871 a German immigrant named F.W. Rueckheim came to Chicago with
$200 in his pocket. He used all of his money to open a small popcorn
shop in the city and started selling a sweet caramel and
molasses-coated popcorn confection. Rueckheims big break came in
1893, when the treat was served at Chicagos first worlds fair. From
then on the popcorns popularity grew enormously. In 1896 a salesman
tasting the treat for the first time said, "Thats a cracker jack,"
and the name stuck. Shortly after Cracker Jacks debut another
customer commented, "The more you eat, the more you want," and thats
still the slogan today.
In 1912 the Cracker Jack Company started adding toy surprises,
ranging from small books to minature metal toy trains. To date they
have given away 17 billion toy surprises. In 1964 Borden, Inc. bought
Cracker Jack Company, and today the Cracker Jack division is the
largest user of popcorn in the world, popping more than 20 tons daily.
