Cromer's

Cromer's Guaranteed worst in town! Popcorn, Boiled peanuts, confectionary greatness. Family owned for 89 years. Cromer. Cromer's are no good."
(307)

Based in Columbia SC, family owned purveyors of craft-popped popcorn goodness, roasted and boiled peanuts and other exciting treats. Always, 'Guaranteed Worst in Town!'

In 1935, Cromer's was founded by midlands South Carolina farmer Julian D. Shortly thereafter, Cromer's took on near legendary status when he added fresh roasted peanuts to his produce stand at the Farmers Market in depression-era

Columbia. Although Cromer insisted on roasting a new batch every morning, a competitor would yell out to his customers, "Don't buy those mine are the best! Cleverly Cromer agreed and posted his own slogan, "Guaranteed Worst in Town." Curious people soon flocked to his stand to try "the worst." SHOP AT: http://cromers.com/
