Thanks, Corrie!

Today my friend Corrie told us that she saw on an episode of "Unwrapped" that Crackerjack means "of good quality." This, of course interested me, so I found this on the Crackerjack website:


1896  Louis Rueckheim, F.W.'s brother and partner, discovers the process for keeping the molasses-covered popcorn morsels from sticking together. Louis gives the treat to a salesman who exclaims, "That's crackerjack!" "So it is," says F.W. Rueckheim, who then has the words trademarked.


I also found this on an online dictionary:
a person or thing of recognized excellence
outstanding, as in skill or ability; excellent


We thought this was really cute! Thanks, Corrie! :)
