I'm getting married in Cincy, but wanted to include one (edible) snack item from Cleveland since this is where we call home. Anyone have any ideas?

    Not sure if they still make them, but The Humphry family USED to make popcorn balls.  This family owned Euclid Beach Park, a famous amusement park, and the popcorn balls were a park favorite. Peterson Nuts, was another Cleveland company famous for their peanuts. And, of course, Malley's Candies is pretty famous and has a plant on Brookpark Road. HTH

    We got out bags (plain white that we did a stamping on) from Old Time Pottery, but you could probably get them fairly cheap anywhere.  We actually put some buckeyes and some taffy from the company that made popcorn balls and things for the old Euclid Beach Park (Humphrey Company).  There is also Peterson's Nut company (now owned by King Nut, but still in Ohio).  You could also check out 'Flavor of Ohio' to get some ideas.  HTH!!

    We're doing Euclid Beach popcorn balls as well and ordered them from Flavor of Ohio.  They have a lot of great items and were extremely helpful.  They have a store in North Olmsted but not sure if they have one in another location.  Here's their website where you can order items.  It may be easier to order on the website and ship to Cincy. www.flavorohio.com

    boxes/bags are cheap at efavormart.com and papermart.com.  I'm leaning towards re-useable grocery bags- they're only $1 usually and will be handy.

    Flower factory had the cheapest ones in the area that I ould find.  we used large tote bags (we had a lot in there!) and I think they were $0.80 each.  I think smaller ones we even like $0.50

    Kerri - where did you find the totes for $0.80/ea? One of the reusable totes I found online is about $2.04/ea for 50-100 -- more than I can spend (but i do want a reusable option rather than a throwaway paper bag)!
