In the comments section of the post, fans of the snack expressed their sadness over the news and called Garrett the "best popcorn" in Hong Kong.
"Your popcorn is the best. I don't want any others," one user commented.
"[I'm] gonna miss the Chicago mix," added another.

The brand opened its first branch in 1949 in downtown Chicago. It's known for its family recipes for flavors CaramelCrisp, CheeseCorn, Buttery, and Plain. In 2009, it expanded beyond the United States as it set up shops in Singapore and Dubai for its 60th anniversary.
