Saltines! The only crackers ever anywhere in the 1960s,
when women wore skirts and children didn’t matter.
Well, at least I didn’t matter – or so I was told. (ouch!)
Saltines with squares of American cheese!
And then came Velveeta… that liquid gold
when mixed with Ro-tel tomatoes created movie night.
Oh, saltines! You, with homemade chili on a frozen night!
Impossible to replace the bland, salty balance
against jalapenos, beef, and beans.
Saltines! A step beyond water crackers that do nothing
for a piece of cheese, with a few exceptions,
like a nice aged brie, or Manchego from La Mancha.
So, diet be damned! Saltines are always on hand!
Love it! Now i want Saltines! Don’t forget- when crumbled in soup!
also aren’t Saltines zero points? So, you can eat as many as you want?
just kidding- great job!
