To eat crackers upside down so that the flavoursome part touches my tastebuds

[jecamat]

I normally eat crackers, for example ryvita, with the flavoured part on the bottom -- otherwise the flavoured bit doesn't touch your tongue and you don't get to taste it.

Yes, I always turn anything like buttered/spread toast upside down too!

That's how we're supposed to eat chocolate digestives apparently 🤔

Yes I do this with Pringles

How could that possibly be unreasonable?

I do this with mini cheddars!

I do this with most foods and DH noticed the other day that DS4 has also started doing it.
So, no, I don’t think YABU

You crunch it all up in your mouth and it mixes with your saliva so doesn't matter which way you put it in?

I mean it stays all mushed up in your mouth while you chew it and taste it, unless you're just inserting the cracker into your mouth and swallowing it like posting a letter.

The reason this is not normal practice is that whatever topping you may have might fall off all down your top.

In conclusion; it's unnecessary.

... are you not chewing your food?!

You watched the Ranganation last night too OP?

I have to say, I agreed with him about the chocolate digestives.

Italian baker once told me off for eating focaccia wrong, I was supposed to turn it upside down for that very reason. Makes sense really

unless you're just inserting the cracker into your mouth and swallowing it like posting a letter. amazing!

Yanbu OP, I eat pringles like this too!

Aaaaah. You mean the food is upside down, not you. Ok that makes sense.

Yabu to not put any sort of topper on these crackers. They are a vehicle for cheese/hummus/pate etc surely?

Yes I do this with chocolate rice cakes

Why would YBU to eat food the way you want to eat food?

Surely Pringles and mini cheddars are equally coated in flavour on both sides?

You crunch it all up in your mouth and it mixes with your saliva so doesn't matter which way you put it in

Anyone else gone right off crackers?

It would never even occur to me to turn it upside down, I taste it when I chew it 😂

Jesus Christ, I can get in enough mess without turning my food upside down 🤣

Have you considered chewing your food?

Half the things mentioned on this thread are the same on both sides. Wtf are you all on about?

There's definitely more flavour on the top of mini cheddars and pringles

I was expecting to find a post about you hanging off the side of the sofa or doing a headstand whilst eating.

This post has disappointed me.

I thought this was to do with crumb distribution and the crumbs would then go up your nose so you were being unreasonable

@makemyweek no there’s definitely more flavour on the “top”

This is an absolute life rule for me partic with eg triscuits or cheese thins or old style krackawheat (which used to have a lot more salt). Had lengthy back and forth with sibling about this very issue as he sent me photo of triscuits I’d sent him and he had them upside down lots of thumbs up etc.
I’d honestly judge someone (do material not random friend) a bit like leaving butter smear in the marmite.
