Amber Popcorn The first amber popcorn (Cracker-Jack) with a unique taste was introduced by F.W. Rueckheim at the 1893 Chicago Conference. At that time, F.W. Rueckheim's younger brother, Louis Rueckheim, discovered a way to prevent honey from sticking to popcorn. This secret recipe is still used today and remains a secret. Amber popcorn is made from a special, red poppy-colored corn that was first hybridized by American Indians around 800 AD. Some New England tribes coated this corn with maple syrup. The popularity of amber popcorn inspired the Rückheim brothers' company. When Lewis was promoting the product to a salesman in 1896, he shouted: "This is Cracker-Jack!" Thus, Cracker-Jack became the trademark of this delicious popcorn. In 1908, Cracker-Jack was immortalized in a pop song called "Take Me to the Baseball Game," which repeatedly sang, "Buy me some peanuts and Cracker-Jack." In 1912, Amber Popcorn coined the slogan "There's a Prize for Everyone" when every toy came with a Cracker-Jack in the box. In 1918, the image of animated star Popeye Jack and his dog named BINGO appeared on the Cracker-Jack packaging box for the first time, except that Jack's face was replaced by Robert, the grandson of Rick Heim. Later, a company based in Ohio's capital purchased Cracker-Jack. Frito-Lay purchased the Cracker-Jack trademark in 1997. Today, amber popcorn (Cracker-Jack) is one of the food series of Frito-Lay Food Company in the United States. This snack is available in school stores, ordinary markets, and at baseball games with peanuts, Hot dogs are as common as they are and an integral part of American pop culture. Pabst beer won gold medals at the 1876 Exhibition and the 1878 World Fair in Paris; it won the highest award at the 1893 Chicago World's Fair and was called "Blue Ribbon Beer." In the 1880s, bottled beer was still in its infancy, and most products suffered from the problem of off-flavor. Best Brewing Co. identified the problem as poor storage conditions and slow shipping during the day that caused the beer to spoil. They use high-purity, high-quality raw materials and choose solid bottles for filling and storage. They call this carefully brewed bottled beer "Selected Beer", and Best Brewery uses a blue silk ribbon around the neck of its bottle as a logo based on a new packaging idea. Unexpectedly, this small tie decoration had a magical effect. The beer tied with a blue ribbon became very popular in the American market. By 1892, Cordon Bleu's "Selected Beers" had become so popular that the company purchased more than 300,000 yards of blue ribbon each year to meet demand. At the 1893 Chicago World's Fair, people seemed to have forgotten the name "Best Beer" that had always been used, and they all affectionately called it "Blue Ribbon Beer". This is the origin of Blue Ribbon Beer. In 1895, Best Beer Company decided to add the word "Blue Ribbon" to the trademark of "Selected Beer". In 1898, "Blue Ribbon Beer" was officially registered. Since then, "Blue Ribbon Beer" has been selling well all over the world and has lasted for more than a hundred years. Cereal: In the 1890s, the two Kellogg brothers devoted themselves to the development of cereal raw foods. The elder brother, John Harvey Kellogg, is the director of a health retreat, and the younger brother, Will Keith Kellogg, is the business manager of the retreat. The sanatorium emphasized healthy living and controlled patients' diet, so the brothers invented many cereal-based foods.

One day, the sanatorium prepared some wheat foods for the patients. After they were prepared, they put them aside and missed everyone's meal time, so they decided to roll the prepared wheat foods with a roller, just like they usually make noodles. Surprisingly, what comes out is not the usual wide slices, but thin slices. The brothers baked these small slices and tasted them themselves. The fragrant and smooth texture made them realize that they had discovered a new and delicious cereal. At the 1893 Chicago World's Fair, the Kellogg brothers began offering visitors free tastings of this delicious and healthy cereal, which quickly gained public recognition. They didn't realize at the time that this created a whole new industry. Since then, oatmeal has entered American breakfast, and "Kellogg's" cereal has been sold to this day. Wrigley's Chewing Gum In the spring of 1891, 29-year-old William Wrigley Jr came to Chicago from Philadelphia, USA, with $32 in his pocket. Mr. Wrigley's entrepreneurial journey in Chicago began with the distribution of "Wrigley Brand" soap. He gave away soda ash and other gifts to merchants as an additional promotional tool. Soon, soda powder became more popular than soap, so he immediately started selling soda powder. Starting in 1892, Mr. Wrigley gave merchants two strips of chewing gum for every can of soda ash he sold. This giveaway program was a huge success. Chewing gum as a gift has more potential than the main product. Mr. Wrigley determined that the chewing gum product had the business opportunity he was looking for, and the Chicago World's Fair made his dream come true. In 1893, he introduced "Yellow Arrow" chewing gum, which was favored by visitors to the Chicago World's Fair. At the end of 1893, "White Arrow" was also launched one after another, and chewing Wrigley gum almost became a fashion.
