Carol Perkins: Useful surprises Previous Column: The Slap By Carol Perkins A box of Cornflakes, a Cracker Jack box, and a box of oatmeal had something in common years ago: a prize inside. This prize might be a pulsating ring, a floating frogman, or a crystal glass. The cereal box required work to seek the buried prize. I have stuck my little arm up to my elbow in a cereal box to retrieve the prize. A box of Cracker Jack was not as easily conquered because of the size and the stickiness of the corn. I ate my way to the bottom or poured out the caramel corn to get the prize. Often a plastic ring was the treasure-hence the question often asked, "Did that ring come from a box of Cracker Jacks?" Oatmeal prizes were of more value. The Crystal Wedding Oats offered crystal cups, glasses, and bowls.
