Crackers

What’s wrong with doing this? I do it semi often. My wife thinks it’s weird but I’ve never regretted it.
I melt cheese on them sometimes.
- have you considered taking a job as a mid-1600s sailor
  
  I like scuttlebutt, rum, salt cod, and I can eat a whole lemon on its own.
  But I don’t like the heat or back breaking labour, so I don’t think I’d be a good fit.
- Are you hard of reading? Poster says you Will not regret. Don't be so surprised.
- I should go back to doing this instead of eating Cheetos. Sleeve of crackers and a serving spoon of peanut butter. So good.
  
  I’m feeling vindicated by this thread. I do this too and my wife comments on it, so I mostly do it when she’s not home.
  
  And it's almost healthy. Not really, but compared to Cheetos...
- I just thought the same thing... They are delicious
- He meant eat a ladle of cinnamon
  
  Cool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, well, I won't be fooled again.
- You gotta do it without water

I put a little butter on them sometimes and it's delicious but everyone thinks I'm crazy until they try it. I wish I had some saltines right now.
- I survived for something like three years on butter and saltines. It's the best if you use unsalted butter, and put rock salt on top, but let's be real here–we're just scraping butter straight off the stick with each saltine and eating it like we're in the trenches of the Great War and we don't know when the Krauts are gonna attack us so we gotta eat fast
- My grandma used to do this. It really is a satisfying treat.
  
  I’ve done this. It never crossed my mind other people didn’t. You have some butter nearby and you’re eating crackers? You put the butter on the crackers.
  It’s like finding a thread where people are going “Try butting butter on the toast. I know it sounds weird [no?] but you gotta try it.” and others “Oh yeah my grandma used to do that”
- I like butter on saltines.
- Isn't that what saltines are for?
  Edit: Wait, I read that as peanut butter. Butter is...not gross but not what I do.
  
  Peanut butter is good too. That's for when I feel like making marginally better choices, though (because then I can say, "Well it has protein?")
- I also think you're crazy, but I believe you.
  
  mixing carbs and fat is never crazy

This how i got gout
- I had to google that, and what the actual fuck. That sounds horrible.

maybe with a brick of cheese
nothing helps my self esteem like a sleeve of saltines and a brick of cheese
- Whipped cream. Salty and sweet. Delicious.
  
  I will be trying this these holidays. I’d have never thought of mixing the two.
  In exchange for the idea, I recommend sweetening whipped cream with a dash of maple syrup, the maple flavour comes out nicely with the airy texture. But do not use this for pumpkin pie or another sweet treat as it’s too rich.

Help me think of more good ways to enjoy saltines
- I just put saltines on them.
  
  New toast sandwich
- Summer sausage and cheddar cheese.
- Mustard if you are especially desperate.
  
  Taco Bell hot sauce packets. Actually goes well with white rice as well.
- ham?
  alternatively, sauce.

Oof this one hits close to home.

Add peanut butter.
- Yes. Saltines and spreading some good crunchy peanut butter is a fine lazy meal.
  
  Skip the butter part, just whole peanuts

People eat saltines... willingly?
- They’re delicious
- Add sardines to that, and you'll have reached a whole new level.
  
  I can't believe someone beat me to it. Sardines, or tinned smoked oysters, a little cheese, baby you've got yourself a meal.

new beef stroganoff just dropped

Blood Pressure 100
- Systolic or diastolic?
- Salt-less saltines? Ines?
  
  My husband can't understand why I love unsalted saltines.

Guilty as charged.

when you get sick and you can finally justify eating sleeve of saltines 😋

I do this, but with graham crackers instead.

Finish by eating the sleeve with a nice Chianti.
