"I agree. From now on, we should all insist on being called "Saltine Americans.""

So Biblical. Salt of the earth Americans.

I can read, write, and understand cursive. Does that make me a Triscuit?

Origin of the term “Cracker:”

When farmers from Georgia and S. Carolina emigrated to Florida, they moved their herds of cattle with whips, cracking them to control the herds. Thus, they were “Crackers.”

Some of my ancestors were Florida Crackers and I’m proud of them.
