I appear to be having an odd moment. My mind has turned to the 1970s I believe. I have a distinct recollection that I would choose, when shopping for cheese, to select a plastic-wrapped rectangular parallelepiped carrying the brand name "Cracker Barrel", and probably the words "extra strong" somewhere too. I looked when last I was in the local grocer and didn't find it on the shelf. The more I think, the more I suspect it has been missing from the cheese shelf for quite a while.
Google is convinced it has an American provenance but that was clearly not the case in the 1970s. Or even the 60s, though I was not responsible for buying food back then.
Perhaps those who can offer useful information might shine a light on my problem.

Angry women will change the world: 4B is the only legal way forward
When flower power came along I stood for Human Rights, marched around for peace and freedom, had some nooky every night - we took it serious.
Who has a spare two minutes to play in this month's FG Trivia game! ... My other OS is Slackware.

Re: Cracker Barrel
It was a brand owned by Kraft so it would have been on sale in the UK - indeed, I remember it well.spot wrote: ↑Thu Jan 25, 2024 6:12 pm I appear to be having an odd moment.

Re: Cracker Barrel
That was quite a popular band in The States for decades.
A package of Cracker Barrel Cheese and some saltines were a common snack back in my trucking days.
Seems to still be popular in Canada.
