ABOUT US
In 1935, Cromer's P-Nuts began at the farmer's market in depression-era Columbia, South Carolina by Julian D. Cromer. Although he roasted a new batch of peanuts every morning, a rival farmer would yell out to his customers, "Cromer's are no good. Mine are the best!"
Julian agreed and posted a sign above his peanuts that read "Guaranteed Worst in Town." Decades later, Cromer’s P-Nuts remains family-owned by Julian’s descendants and offers roasted and boiled peanuts, craft-popped popcorn, and other tasty treats. No one really knows what happened to the other farmer. But Cromer’s P-Nuts will always be, 'Guaranteed Worst in Town!'

My husband and I travel to Columbia South Carolina, to purchase and eat their fresh popcorn. Also, they have other snacks. What makes them special, the popcorn and snacks are fresh.... And they treat you individually with respect.. like a family member.

Have loved this store since I was a kid!! I lived in NY and CT for over 30 years after highschool, and everytime I would visit I would go to Cromer's. Best boiled pnuts in the US!
Wow, wow is all I can think of when I went inside Cromer's...it's like a step back in time...what a wide selection of " can't do without" items all in one place.
Add a little color to your life with our Confetti Corn! Subtle flavors of Strawberry, Blue Raspberry, Orange and Grape make this a party in every bag.
