Cracker Jack Gets A Cracker Jill Addition
When I think of Cracker Jack’s, I flash back to being a kid. Eating the yummy, sweet treat and finding the prize inside was as good as it gets when you’re little. I can’t remember the last time I ate them, but I want a box of the new addition! Cracker Jack now has a snack mate, and her name is Cracker Jill.
According to Yahoo, snack company Frito-Lay is introducing a new face to its famous Crack Jack line. Bags of Cracker Jill will be available at baseball parks across the country starting this week to coincide with Opening Day.
Frito-Lay says the addition of Cracker Jill is to celebrate women in sports and also announced a 200-thousand-dollar donation to the Women’s Sports Foundation. It’s not a limited edition, either. The snack will be a permanent member of the Frito-Lay roster. Cool!
There are five different representations of women on the special-edition bags created by by artist and model Monica Ahanonu. To mark Cracker Jill’s introduction, singer Normani recorded an updated version of “Take Me Out To the Ballgame” where she sings, “Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jill. No one can stop you if you have the will.”
The bags are really cute! And I think the bags will especially be awesome for little girls who play sports. If you aren’t a baseball fan you can grab a bag by donating $5 or more to the Women’s Sports Foundation on CrackerJill.com.
Meet Cracker Jill™! Cracker Jack® is adding to its roster to represent the women and girls who break barriers in the world of sport and beyond. Go to https://t.co/6N6bFO3zTR to donate to @womenssportsfdn and we’ll send a bag of #CrackerJill with a minimum $5 donation. pic.twitter.com/9hCuArx1DX
