Emily O'Brien is not your everyday entrepreneur. To get to where she is now, she's truly had to come back from the abyss.

The result was her company Comeback Snacks - 'popcorn so good, it's criminal.'   

With flavors as unique as Emily's story, Comeback Snacks has already built a reputation as a purveyor of one of the tastiest snacks in Ontario. We tasted them and can vouch for it!
