Why you should go…

Johnson's Popcorn has been popping caramel corn in copper kettles on the Ocean City, New Jersey boardwalk since 1940. The shop is a boardwalk tradition, drawing lines for its signature caramel corn along with cheddar and other flavored varieties. It ships nationwide, but the original boardwalk storefront remains the draw for shore visitors.
