Garrett's CaramelCrisp is one of America's great snack foods.

This is VERY cheesy corn.  Many people get this mixed with CaramelCrisp.  Hard for us to imagine that combination works, but people seem to love it.

Mix, also known as a Chicago Mix means a shook-up combination of caramel corn and cheese corn. The sweetness of the caramel corn and the savory luxury of the cheese corn are a devastating combination. No snack we know is more impossible to stop eating.

Note the bin of freshly-made caramel corn in the window. It is scooped into bags still hot. This is one of Chicago's -- and America's -- great snack foods. A recent remodeling has helped keep the usually long lines inside the shop, rather than snaking way out onto Michigan Avenue.
