New Products
Charles Cretors unveiled the world's first popcorn machine driven on steam that popped corn in oil.
"Charles Cretors took his new popcorn wagon to the Midway of Chicago's Columbian Exposition in 1893 and introduced the new corn product to the public. The smell of roasting peanuts and of hot buttered corn being popped in its seasoning right before the buyers eyes was enough to attract attention and ultimately sales."
