Just doing the packed lunches. If I butter cream crackers and wrap in cling film will they go soft?

[Cadelaide]

I have a feeling they do?

I think they would too.

yes they would

OK, thanks

no

Oh, SEA, why did I come back to this thread?

I had just made a decision about something I've spent far too much time dithering over already and then you come along and mess everything up

sorry just remembered taking them to school.

maybe do an experiement and have one wrapped one not and carry them around in your bag all day.

Bloody good idea.

Will report back.

Do not carry a buttered cream cracker unwrapped in your handbag!

Have you got any cheese spread triangles? You could put them in with unbuttered crackers. Probably not helpful at this time of night, sorry!

This thread is making me laugh - I can relate to it. Many a time my DDs have moaned at me for having soggy crackers in their lunchboxes!!

foil is the way to go ...unless there is some mn campaign againt foil wrappimg lunches Ive missed

But isn't it the butter that makes them soft?

IMO butter doesn't make em soft, but 'lite' margarines do, cos they have a high water content.

Interesting headgirl, very informed, I see how you got your name.

I shall experiment with butter.

have just checked with dd who regularly takes them in her lunchbox (2 of them, sandwiched with Clover, wrapped in clingfilm), and she assures me they are still crunchy.

Thanks misshardbroom, solid evidence.

My DC have these sometimes. It doesn't seem t make them soft
