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.

[-] match@pawb.social 33 points 10 months ago

have you considered taking a job as a mid-1600s sailor

[-] EmergMemeHologram@startrek.website 22 points 10 months ago

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.

[-] SuiXi3D@kbin.social 10 points 10 months ago

Doubt they did either, but it was that or starve.

[-] intensely_human@lemm.ee 3 points 10 months ago

“I kinda like it actually”

“Shut up, Nart”

“But —“

“It’s a horrible life”

Are you hard of reading? Poster says you Will not regret. Don't be so surprised.

[-] anonymouse@lemmings.world 7 points 10 months ago

I should go back to doing this instead of eating Cheetos. Sleeve of crackers and a serving spoon of peanut butter. So good.

[-] EmergMemeHologram@startrek.website 5 points 10 months ago

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.

[-] Pinklink@lemm.ee 5 points 10 months ago

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

[-] swab148@startrek.website 6 points 10 months ago

"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."

[-] seth@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

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.

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

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago

And it's almost healthy. Not really, but compared to Cheetos...

[-] intensely_human@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

I just realized I’ve never tried butter on an apple. Butter on fruit generally.

[-] Isakk86@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

I just thought the same thing... They are delicious

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.

[-] seth@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago

This suggestion is relevant to my interests, and I have all the ingredients on hand. Thank you for your service. 🫡

[-] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 7 points 10 months ago

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

[-] Kit@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 10 months ago

My grandma used to do this. It really is a satisfying treat.

[-] intensely_human@lemm.ee 5 points 10 months ago

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”

[-] Elderos@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 months ago

I get that a lot when I put butter on my pizza crust, I mean it is bread?

[-] i2ndshenanigans@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

I like butter on saltines.

[-] lolcatnip@reddthat.com 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Isn't that what saltines are for?

Edit: Wait, I read that as peanut butter. Butter is...not gross but not what I do.

maybe with a brick of cheese

nothing helps my self esteem like a sleeve of saltines and a brick of cheese

[-] baronvonj@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Whipped cream. Salty and sweet. Delicious.

[-] EmergMemeHologram@startrek.website 4 points 10 months ago

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.

[-] MaxVoltage@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

New toast sandwich

Summer sausage and cheddar cheese.

Mustard if you are especially desperate.

ham?

alternatively, sauce.

[-] FluorideMind@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago

Oof this one hits close to home.

[-] PunnyName@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago
[-] hamburglar26@wilbo.tech 4 points 10 months ago

Yes. Saltines and spreading some good crunchy peanut butter is a fine lazy meal.

[-] xarexyouxmadx@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

People eat saltines... willingly?

[-] BowtiesAreCool@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

They’re delicious

[-] theluckyone@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Add sardines to that, and you'll have reached a whole new level.

[-] curiousaur@reddthat.com 4 points 10 months ago

I can't believe someone beat me to it. Sardines, or tinned smoked oysters, a little cheese, baby you've got yourself a meal.

[-] match@pawb.social 4 points 10 months ago

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

Guilty as charged.

[-] Raptor_007@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

I do this, but with graham crackers instead.
