You have the most interesting posts. I always look forward to them.
If you have a “ping” list, I would like to be included.
Thanks.
Those stale crackers add their aged flavor to a hot bowl of tomato soup. A nice toasted cheese sandwich with an edge dipped in the soup makes for a nice lunch.
Didn’t you use to be Cliff Clavin on Cheers?
Cheese Nips are not nearly as good. I once thought those 2 were about the same, but they’re not. That was when we experimented with some snacks to see what our toddler son would eat. (BTW, I love the “character”/theme CIs even better - the hardness from the pinched embossed pix makes it even better!)
And I love the new flavors for CI. Just wish they would make smaller boxes of each type.
Yeah, disagree with that. Maybe it’s the “modern” packaging.
In a year they will be a bit clay smelling/tasting. May be just as crisp, but the taste turns.
Yeah, I think they’re only for Tomato Soup but the “Its” are clearly much better.
I think I found them for 89-99 cents a box so I got a half-dozen or so over a couple of trips.
Yeah, you get what you pay for....
Saltines are much better if you put them in the oven (about 250 degrees) for a bit,......even better with a dab of butter on top.

You can find ANYTHING (almost) on Youtube!
I miss Hi-Ho crackers (similar to Ritz). Can’t find them in Texas.
Krystal is only in the southeastern US and very similar to White Castle. Really big in Tennessee and Georgia. White Castle can be found in 11 Midwestern and Northern states. Krystal in 12 throughout the South. Even though they’re separate companies they show little signs of try to expand into each others territory. Only places they compete head to head are a few cities in KY, and Tenn.
I'm actually thinking of doing my next article on hardtack. During the Civil War especially, it was a staple and often got wormy due to improper storage (flies would lay eggs in it). Soldiers would soak the hardtack in coffee or whiskey to make the worms crawl out!
Keeps the peanut butter from sliding off...
Finally. Some news I can use.
BTW, my wife buys Saltines that have no salt.
knock-down-drag-out-fights...
Lol...
I think you’re the one leaving cracker crumbs on that train to Connecticut.
Cheezits (and goldfish etc) are just msg held together with poor quality wheat.
I only have the holes G-d gave me.
Oh, wrong Cracker. Sorry.

LOL, now we know...this is good! I love little bits of trivia like this.
Egg salad not grilled cheese ;)
