- Cracker Jack is a sweet treat that has been associated with baseball since the early 1900's. Starting back in 1914 Cracker Jack has included baseball cards in their product. The two original sets are some of the most highly sought after vintage sets in the hobby. More recently Topps used the Cracker Jack design for the 2004 Cracker Jack and 2005 Cracker Jack sets.
- Cracker Jack is a brand of snack food made from molasses flavored candy-coated popcorn and peanuts, packaged with a small toy. Well connected to Baseball with the song, "Take Me Out to the Ballgame," it was first sold at the Chicago World's Fair in 1893 but it wasn't until 1896 that it was coined Cracker Jack.
- Cracker Jack (クラッカー・ジャック Kurakkā Jakku?), also known as C. Jack, is a video game character from the Street Fighter series, first appearing in Street Fighter EX. He is a bouncer turned bodyguard, currently employed by the family of Blair Dame.
- Cracker Jack is a brand of candy-coated popcorn. Several Superman comics were included as prizes in the box of Cracker Jack for many years.
- Two common uses of Cracker Jack are alluded to above: eating it, and throwing it. Another use is finger-painting, on the nearest available wall, right after eating a box, without the need for finger paint. There is also a prize in every box of Cracker Jack, and a typical American feels justified in eating himself into morbid obesity by the need to collect Decoder Rings in all six colors, and maybe a couple miniature police whistles as well.

- Two common uses of Cracker Jack are alluded to above: eating it, and throwing it. Another use is finger-painting, on the nearest available wall, right after eating a box, without the need for finger paint. A less common use is as a test to see whether someone is really an American. A swarthy foreigner trying to imitate an American, perhaps when prompted to sing Take Me Out to the Ballgame with its rousing stanza begging one's companion to "buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jack" will put the trademark into the plural, asking for "Cracker Jacks." One would hardly spend Thanksgiving dinner asking the hostess to pass the "corns," ugh. As in the movie Stalag 17, the impostor is immediately revealed. In fact, an authentic American cannot sing the baseball anthem in the first place without remarking on the redundancy, as there are already peanuts inside every box of Cracker Jack. There is also a prize in every box of Cracker Jack, and a typical American feels justified in eating himself into morbid obesity by the need to collect Decoder Rings in all six colors, and maybe a couple miniature police whistles as well. There is also a cheerful sailor boy on every box, accompanied by his dog, as most Navy personnel bring the family pet aboard during missions. The dog is named Bingo and the sailor went on to become Popeye. The sailor motif is a memento of those several times when America was savagely attacked by a foreign nation without warning. (Without unambiguous warning, ignoring idle murderous rhetoric by their insane dictator, which could hardly be taken seriously by a President with momentous domestic reforms on his mind.) The Cracker Jack box harks back to a patriotic interlude in American history--during the bold, manly response to that attack, and before it had dragged into decades-long occupation of a foreign country where they dress funny, at ruinous expense to the national treasury. Clearly it is a bridge to a simpler time. Americans can think about that simpler time, without actually having to simplify anything. And while they are thinking, they can stuff their faces.
