...my full title is, "His Holiness, The Reverend Doctor "Sal" Sharpington Saltine." No relation to the cracker, which, by the way, you can get with or witout actual salt, and stay away from the House Brand of your local supermarket, because they crumble when peanut butter is even near them.
Sounds good. When I make really thick chili I substitute whole grain matzos for crackers. They hold up better.

Also, wheat and stuff like that makes crackers and tortillas somewhat bitter.
At this point, I go full fat, full flavor, but look for "unbleached" flour.
