We called them Cracker Jacks
2 cups brown sugar
1/4 cup oleo
1 cup white karo syrup
2 gallons of popped corn
3/4 cup raw peanuts (optional)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon baking soda
Boil sugar, syrup & oleo. Add nuts. Boil 5 minutes. Add baking soda and vanilla. Stir. Place popped corn in a large roaster pan. Pour mixture over popped corn. Place in 200 degree oven. Stir every 15 minutes to make sure all popcorn is completely covered with mixture. Cook 1 hour at 200 degrees. Sorry...no prizes included like boxed Cracker Jacks!!!

I think this is the one you want. 1 C margarine, 2C Brown Sugar-packed, 1/2 C light corn syrup, 1t salt, 1/2 t baking soda, 1t vanilla, 6-8 quarts popped corn. ( I use a large enamel roasting pan and just enough popped corn to almost fill it up.)
Melt margarine, add sugar, syrup & salt. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Boil 5 minutes without stirring. Remove from heat, add soda & vanilla. Pour over corn & mix well. Bake at 250 degrees for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes. Remove from pan and let cool. I spill mine on the counter and spread it out until it sets. Make lots, it goes fast.
