I thought I had lost the board forever, good to find you guys again!
Trivial question, perhaps, but I'd like your input:
What kind of cracker do you usually use for wine and cheese? Buttery crackers seem to throw me off, unless it's with a buttery chardonnay (which I would really prefer to NOT be drinking in the first place) or perhaps sometimes a velvety merlot (not quite as bad for me as the chardonnay).
Or does it even matter? And would you kick me out for eating crackers in bed?
I actually prefer to put my cheese on bread...but crackers sound simpler.

I strictly use OTC Wine Crackers -- I think they are great. If you cannot find them locally, Amazon sells them:

The cheapest place is Food Service Direct, but you have to buy a case of 12:

I prefer water crackers or Zesta saltines. The water crackers are more neutral in flavor (and presumably less salty but I haven't checked the label for sodium content.)
