I like Ritz Crackers too! I like them with peanut butter...crunchy. I
also like Cheezits...I think I pretty much generally like crackers.
But now all the crackers in the house have little warning labels on
them about low salt content...if there's a salt shortage going on out
there, how come it never makes the news?
