Rice Crackers

This is just a random photo of some rice crackers and dips that I found on the internet.

I am so amused. I never knew it could be so difficult to buy a packet of rice crackers!

I've been wanting some healthy snacks, so I asked Berlin to get me some rice crackers when she went to the supermarket. Well to start with Berlin didn't know what rice crackers were. Problem number 1.

She called me several times while at the supermarket.

"I can't find them"
"They should be in the biscuit aisle, with the savoury biscuits"

I posted the above photo on her wall so she could see what they looked like.

Subsequent phone calls included the following:

"What are they?"
"They're like round crackers, made out of rice"

"I'm here and it goes from biscuits, digestives, to coffee and tea"
"They're not the type of biscuits you have with coffee or tea. You just... eat them."

"They should be near the Ritz"
"Are you sure they're not Ritz?"
"They're not Ritz"
"What about Water Crackers"
"No, you have water crackers with cheese"
"What about Carr's"
"Carr's make water crackers!"
"Yeah you're right."


"What's the brand you normally buy?"
"Sakata, but they might be an Australian thing"
"YOU MEAN YOU HAVEN'T BOUGHT THEM HERE BEFORE?!?!?!"

4 phone calls, later, Berlin came home without any rice crackers. The last call ended with her saying "I'm sooooo sorrrrryyyyyyyy!!!!!!"

Oh dear.

(Some brilliant lines from both Berlin and I in there, btw)
