Talk:Oyster cracker

message: I've never had a 'buttery' oyster cracker.  They usually taste similar to plain saltines.PrometheusX303 16:08, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: (Don't make gospel out of those %s: such figures seem to be rounded to nearest 5 cal.)  I'm a crushed-saltines-&-milk fan, and i remember noticing (with the rest of the box where i first read figures that show they're not low fat, before switching to the fat-free ones) that when skim milk covers those crushed dry-looking saltines, there's a fatty or oily film on the milk. --Jerzy•t 05:33 & 05:57, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

text: * Must be different brands.  I've never seen any residue on the packages.  But then again, I haven't eaten oyster crackers in years, and rarely did before then.  PrometheusX303 01:51, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

text: ** "Much smaller", Smaller than .6"? "Those", the ones in :Image:Oystercrackers01.JPG, added between those two msgs (which look nothing like Ritz Crackers, shown in :Image:RitzCrackers.jpg) are bigger than you're used, i gather the size of Ritz, which i recall to be something on the order of 1½" to 2"? And everything i've ever seen called an oyster cracker looked like the image and was on the order of .6" across. Tho i couldn't tell the size, the old (1940s or earlier) painted-metal ad i saw today, looked  just the same. (Details: #Oysterettes, below.)--Jerzy•t 05:33, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

message: The old-fashioned ad i mention above, under #Buttery?, states "Oysterettes" as the trademark for the product, carries a slogan close to "The oyster crackers" or  "The real oyster crackers", and has a graphic in the upper left corner that is obviously a version of the Nabisco logo, but without the word Nabisco, and maybe without the closed figure under the complex cross. Instead, it had N, B, and either C or Co, probably with N and B left and right of the staff of the cross, above the last (2nd or 3rd) cross-bar, and the C or Co below it. I may have forgotten seeing the name "Oysterettes" before, or never seen it, but my love remembers either seeing or hearing it used in her home of origin. Perhaps this early American history of the product can be verified and included. --Jerzy•t 05:51, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
