The World’s Best Popcorn

Garrett PopcornRecently I ate some popcorn from a store I have not been to in a couple years. And believe me that was far too long! Garrett Popcorn is in my opinion the best popcorn ever made.

Here in Chicago it’s a well known, long-standing tradition to wait in line 2+ hours for it even on very cold, snowy winter days. It is really that good and no… people are not crazy for doing it.

Once eating this popcorn, even the most cynical person has to say its one of the best things they have ever tasted. While that may be a bit of hyperbole, it’s not really an exagerration to say that I have yet to meet a person who thought it was nothing but awesome.

Some may have heard about it from of all people Oprah, but she had little to do with its popularity. It was already well established here in Chicago since 1949, long before she was yapping about it on TV. Many other Hollywood and music-types rave about Garrett’s which is ok I suppose. Frankly I’d rather it only be known here in Chicago without those “stars” going on about it. Selfish of me? Darn right it is! To this day its a family owned and operated business and hopefully it will remain that way.

I highly recommend the CaramelCrisp® & CheeseCornâ„¢ MIX however you can’t go wrong with any of the flavors listed here.
