Chicago’s Garrett Popcorn turns 75

Chicago’s Garrett Popcorn turns 75 “Thank you for sharing our handcrafted happiness,” says Megan Chody, owner of Garrett Popcorn Shops. After 75 years in business, the folks at Garrett know a thing or two about popcorn. The Garrett mix — caramel and cheddar popcorn — has become known as the “Chicago mix” and has even inspired many knockoffs. We mark the anniversary of the legendary Chicago company and try a new seasonal flavor (no, it’s not pumpkin spice).
