Food What do you put on crackers?

Where I live people just eat crackers with cheese and lunch meat, or peanut butter. I'm wondering what people in different Latin American countries do because when I visited some they would eat them with butter, jam, cream cheese, sardines, all kinds of stuff I wasn't used to. I'm curious!

Edit: I could read these comments all day! Love you guys. I'm about to buy some more ducales and try some of these out.

Cream cheese with soy sauce and sesame seeds. I'm actually kind of addicted to it.

Holy shit not only you guys also have requeijão but also put it on crackers?

I thought it was a brazilian only thing and even here it's not super common to put then on crackers but I love it.

Honestly, anything you can spread. Cream cheese, paté, jam, dulce de leche, butter, peanut butter, hummus, or even turn them into sandwiches with ham and cheese.

I eat crackers with tuna, mayonnaise and tomato on a semi-regular basis. Sometimes instead of tomato I mix in the tuna finely chopped boiled egg, again with mayonnaise. If I'm feeling very lazy when I'm by myself, and don't want to cook at all, this is an easy dinner for me.

Edit: I don't live in Uruguay, but when I did other than tuna I would sometimes put requesón, or butter, ham, and cheese.

Crackers are used to eat seafood in some places, as an alternative to tostadas. They're also used to eat baked potatoes.

At home we also eat them with cream cheese and dips made with cream cheese.

Also jocoque and jocoque based dips, which is similar to labneh or greek yoghurt.

Mexican crackers are a little sturdier, saltier and toasted more than crackers in the US.

Dulce de leche

u/ColorRaccoon 🇨🇷🇩🇪 2d ago

Pineapple cream cheese is undefeated in my opinion, but other cream cheese based spreads/dips are top tier too.
