by David R Spellman

 
caramel popcorn but
where have all the peanuts gone?
that would be a prize!

-chuckling- things have changed, haven't they? I always liked the peanuts better than the popcorn, but yeah, went for the prize...

The prize is in hope; The answer is evaded; The popcorn faded

laughing-my brother and I would share, he liked the peanuts, I the popcorn. He would let me have the girl prizes, he the boy's , but we would fight over those forbidden tatoos!(mom HATED them for some reason) Thanks for an almost forgotten memory:o)

Hi David, Very good. Yummy. I love Cracker Jacks, haven't had them in along time. Not sure I still can, cause of the fat, sugar, etc. They are very good. There used to be alot of peanut, guess they cut back on them. Wouldn't know it? Jean
