Soup with crackers?

[Whyislarryhappy]

I'm on t the only one who thinks this is completely bonkers right?
Why do people do this? Surely bread would be better dipped tolo lock in flavour?

Bonkers.

I know people who have crackers with soup because that’s what they prefer over soggy bread. Not sure it’s that unusual.

I have crackers with soup frequently but only since I had to stop eating gluten as gluten free bread isn't great but crackers are ok.

It's reasonably common in the US. But most American bread is super sweet and a bit nasty anyway.

Never knew this was common in USA. Im in uk over here!

I’m the same as Bluebell—I eat gluten free and gluten free bread sucks. The gluten free oatcakes are delicious tho and go well dipped in soup.

Very common in the US - in fact, soup crackers are an actual thing.

I eat crackers with soup because I’m trying to lose some weight and they are way less calories. I often do it anyway though, even when I’m happy with my weight as I just find that bread is so filling and I would rather fill up on soup than bread

I did this yesterday because I didn't have bread with me but did have crackers in my desk drawer. It didn't work and I won't be doing it again

I love soup and crackers!

Got to be bread

Very common in USA. Loved the clam chowder and crackers when over there. Sometimes bread and soup can be too filling

I like soup and crackers. I often put Philadelphia on the crackers too.

YABU. Now I want soup! Though not with crackers. A slice of crusty bread with butter. Maybe a little morsel of cheese :) a cheese scone is nice with soup too.

Do people dunk the crackers in the soup or just eat them alongside it?

Soup and crackers is my children’s go to illness food! All three crumble a cracker in, the eat soup and slightly crunchy cracker with a spoon. They love it.

Dumplings, suet ones are surprisingly nice in most soups.

Crackers are for cheese or potted meat.

Soup and crackers is great, especially tomato soup.

I also have bread or oatcakes or cheese scones or bread sticks depending on what I fancy/what is in the house.

The ultimate comfort food! Heinz tomato soup and jacobs cream crackers, with loads of butter.

Sod crackers or soggy bread in soup, sausage roll dunked in to tomato soup is the food of god's

Oh and it must be Heinz tomato !

Going to throw a spanner in the works here (oh dear) I like soup and chips the best it reminds me of childhood although a lot of people think its very strange !

I prefer bread, but I'll crumble crackers if there isn't any. Crouton-like, innit.

Wonder why this evolved though? Crackers rather than bread?

🤔

I e. In the States

Posh woman at work puts crisps on her soup. Whatever floats your boat I guess

I think it's because in America the bread is sweet.
