Cracker Jacks- Prize inside

[teacups]

Oh so sad. The prizes used to be so cool when I was a kid! Silly clickers and whistles. Junk, but cool free junk! Now, they have this silly little fold over question and answer. Thats such a rip off! Thats not a "Prize"

I agree - my DS got a box of cracker jacks the other day, he takes out the prize, (a piece of paper book) I said that's it!! What a rip off -

I never got anything cool in my Cracker Jacks. All I remember was the temporary tattoos and the fortune teller fish. I never really understood those things.

I don't remember anything too cool, either. But even a temporary tatoo is better than what's in there today!

Sorry I think I maybe the reason there is no more whistle in the Cracker jacks. I used to stick them in my nose

I haven't had Cracker jacks in years do they still taste the same?

Did you blow them and make them whistle with nose air?
Yep. I bet it's your fault.
As for the taste... either its changed or I've grown up. They tasted a little burned or something. Fiddle Faddle is much better.

Personally, I used to love the temporary tattoos when I was a kid-- that was my favorite prize! They were the closest I ever got to getting a real one (which I wouldn't do now to save my life !).

My kids used to love Cracker Jacks (same as I did as a child) The last 3 times I bought the 3 pack for them they have gotten the same exact prize. It's this stupid fold over thing that makes a presidents face.

We went to a store the other day and they had some set up at the registers and I asked them if they'd like one and they said "no" because "the prize isn't any fun."

Lame prizes ruined the fun of Cracker Jacks for my kids.

The little tattoo books were my favorite!

My grandmother would take them away and trash them though if I was at her house. Why? She saw a news report that people were hiding LSD in temp tattoos.
