About the Holiday
National Caramel Popcorn Day celebrates this sweet and salty snack that has been enjoyed since the late 1800s. Commonly served at ballparks and concession stands all across America caramel popcorn is often combined with peanuts, pecans, almonds, or cashews.
According to Examiner.com "Caramel popcorn has been gobbled up since the 1890s when brothers Frederick and Louis Rueckheim introduced their molasses-covered popcorn at the World’s Columbian Exposition. But their concoction was too sticky so back the drawing board they went. After a bit of tweaking, the perfect combination was created and Cracker Jacks were the result! And by the way, that secret recipe used in the 1890s is still the same one used today!"
