saltines, are unleavened, usually very salty, and crunchy.
It's a cracker. Do you have crackers of ANY kind? take out 99% of the flavor, add a little more salt, and voila! saltine.
We use them in soups over here,...and to spread stuff on.
As a teenager, when my mother was going thru her cake decorating phase, we kids, would spread the leftover icing, (crisco and confectioners sugar, with just a dab of water), on saltines.
yes, on saltines!!!
There were 8 ppl in our family, so, you know,...ya eat some weird stuff.
We thought it was good. :wink:
