Oyster crackers are a favorite snack in our household. No, not right out of the bag. Those are rather boring. No, we flavor them up! They’re easy to make, inexpensive, and there are a lot of ways to flavor them. And they’re crunchy. Good-n-crunchy. And since we both like a little kick, spicy oyster crackers are a recurring favorite.
No Wimpy Crackers Here
These spicy oyster crackers have a lot of kick. You might want to tone it back a bit if you’re taking a batch to co-workers! Or not. I wouldn’t. Heck they’re called spicy for a reason. Just put a sign by the bowl that says ‘spicy’. I think that frees you from any legal responsibility, right?
