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.
Doubt they did either, but it was that or starve.
“I kinda like it actually”
“Shut up, Nart”
“But —“
“It’s a horrible life”
I think with the British navy they hanged you for refusing service, but I haven’t decided if that’s preferable to starving.
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.
Someone who makes you feel like you have to hide who you are is not acting like a very good partner :( and you can tell her I said so
“Baby, I know we’ve been together for 12 years, but some random person on the internet said we should break up because I eat crackers, so it’s over.”
I read it as a helpful cue to shore up the small discordant point in the relationship, with saltine goodness and a little brainstorming on ways to improve the crackerage. Couples who cracker together, something something.
Couples who cracker together, smack ‘er together?
She calls me a weirdo but she still brings me crackers and peanut butter or she makes me “cracker stew” (which is soup fully saturated with crackers) when I’m sick.
We’re good, but next time she bugs me for it I’ll repeat the message
And it’s almost healthy. Not really, but compared to Cheetos…
I just realized I’ve never tried butter on an apple. Butter on fruit generally.
I just thought the same thing… They are delicious
You gotta do it without water
He meant eat a ladle of cinnamon
Cool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, well, I won’t be fooled again.
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.
This suggestion is relevant to my interests, and I have all the ingredients on hand. Thank you for your service. 🫡
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 get that a lot when I put butter on my pizza crust, I mean it is bread?
I like butter on saltines.
Thank me later!
do the same with Pretzel
Pretzel + Butter = Orgasm In Your Mouths
What kind of pretzel? I feel like the sticks are way too tiny and even the knotted ones would be kind of a pain in the ass. I could get behind a big soft pretzel with butter though. That would be worth the effort.
The sticks and the knotted ones with butter!
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.
mmmmmm
Oof this one hits close to home.

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.
Add peanut butter.
Yes. Saltines and spreading some good crunchy peanut butter is a fine lazy meal.
Skip the butter part, just whole peanuts
Instructions unclear. Saltines, peanuts, and butter.
new beef stroganoff just dropped
People eat saltines… willingly?
They’re delicious
Add sardines to that, and you’ll have reached a whole new level.
Guilty as charged.
Blood Pressure 100
Systolic or diastolic?
Salt-less saltines? Ines?
My husband can’t understand why I love unsalted saltines.
I was given unsalted crackers once. It seemed like licking the wall.
But it’s a tasty wall with a nice texture. One might say, a tastysnack.
Also. Why are you familiar with the sensation of licking a wall? 👀
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.
