Crackers in soup....
crumble them up or dunk them?

as long as we're here--dumber than a box of rocks, or dumber than a sack of hammers?

1. Crumbled, in chili too. Dumber than rocks, because hammers are smart.
So there.

3. Rocks
hammers have smarts. They fall down and hit my toe every time I drop one! (I'm clumsier than a box of hammers, that's for sure!)

6. Floating Whole
This way they can reach the ultimate of soggy goodness. Nothing is better than Ritz Crackers in Tomato Soup!

19. Unless it's Common Crackers...
...what Nabisco bastardizes and calls "Oysterettes"

Westminster Crackers are the best I've found so far.
A handful floating whole in Chowder, or Tomato Soup? Perfection.

7. Both
I crumble a whole bunch and soak them into the soup, then I half-submerge whole crackers along the edge of the bowl. While I wait for the soup to cool off a little (I'm prone to burning my tongue; apparently everyone else I know has super tongues that don't burn) I eat soup-soaked whole crackers. Yummy.

8. Crumble, individually
so they don't get soggy. Dumber than a sack of hammers.

9. Usually use oyster crackers
So whole I guess. It would seem pointless to crush them.
And I pick box of rocks.

13. If I made a pot of home-made soup and you
immediately stuck a bunch of crackers in it, I would drown you! They are an abomination!!! :mad:

Now if you are opening up a can of Campbell's Tomato Soup, and you toss in some oyster crackers, no harm done! :)

Oh, and it's a bag of hammers.

16. Amen, Bunny.
It's one of those quirks in my boyfriend I tolerate.

Soup, Gumbo, Stew, Chili.....Immediately the bf reaches for the box of crackers.

:grr:

20. Now hold on a second...
I don't wanna start a flame war here or anything--BUT when I make my own pot of homemade soup--be it split pea, lentil, any kind of bean, ckicken noodle, chicken vegetable, kick-ass-kitchen-sink-black-bean-pork-chop-chili I'm havin' crackers with it in some fashion! As comedian Mitch Hedberg once said "I like crackers."

Now as far as hammer-totin'-contraptions go, I stand corrected. Even though I think there's just something funny about the phrase "sack of hammers." Oh well ;)

14. I thought it was bag a hammers
I try to float them, but then get impatient, and stab them with my spoon. Always, and I can't emphasize this enough, in tomato soup.

17. Oyster crackers ONLY
Submerged as much as possible.

And put a hit of red wine vinegar in that tomato soup. It's very nice.

Actually, it's "dumber than a box of hair."

21. The more the better crumbled. Try Ritz crackers..........
it gives soup a whole different taste.
