Moms the Word

Sometimes the kids need a nudge in the right direction! Get her a Bragging Rights Bundle! Between the golden tin of Classic, Milk, and Dark Chocolate CaramelCrisp® and the Signature Pink Tin of The Chicago Mix, the only reason Mom will pause in her raves is to take a delicious bite or two.

Garrett Popcorn
is a great pick-me-up and lift-me-up! Turn your empty tins into stilts when you want to stand a little taller.

What you’ll need for this Tinnovation*:
*Seek adult supervision if necessary.

  • Two Garrett Tins
  • Two ropes, at least 4′-0″ each
  • Good balance

Step-by-steps:

  1. Finish your Garrett Popcorn!
  2. Wash and dry both tins.
  3. Tie each end of the rope around the base of the handle close to the tin. Repeat with other tin.
  4. Carefully place each foot atop each tin. Hold the rope to be taut when standing straight.
  5. Pick up your foot and hand in unison on each side and take a step. Walk tall!

How do you reuse your empty tins? Show off your inner Tinnovator and enjoy other upcycling projects here.

Happy Star Wars Day! As you’re planning your movie marathon, consider these geeky popcorn thoughts:

  • Contrary to rumors, we do NOT have jedis in the kitchen cooking w/light sabers. Ours use copper kettles.
  • Know why Storm Troopers are grumpy? They can’t hide cheesy fingerprints on white armor.
  • Know what makes Storm Troopers really grumpy? The fact they can’t eat The Chicago Mix through their masks.
  • Made the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs? That’s nothing. The Chicago Mix is usually gone in 60 seconds.
  • There’s a dark side & a light side & together they make a whole. Yes, we’re talking about The Chicago Mix.
  • Chicago Mix or do not Chicago Mix, there is no try.
  • Do others find your lack of Chicago Mix…disturbing?
  • You can try to use the Force, but we only accept cash or credit

And most importantly, Han shot first.
