My dad sometimes put stewed tomatoes over crackers. And he always put
crackers in his soup. I'm not really big on crackers but I do not want them
in my soup.

I may have messed up some tuna salad a little while ago with crackers. I
decided to make some and used canned tuna instead of the pouch. I prefer
the pouch. I thought that the canned was going to expire soon but I was
wrong on that but too lazy to put it back and get the pouches. My next
mistake was in using the Veganaise. Again, laziness. I had some Just Mayo
in the fridge but there was only a dab left in the bottle and I didn't feel
like opening a new one. And I had hoped to use up the Veganaise but unless
I make a potato or pasta salad, that isn't going to happen. Anyway... The
end result was a runny tuna salad. I tried to drain it. Fail. Put it in a
little colander and pressed on it. Fail. Still runny.

I do know that you can buy tuna seasoning with bread crumbs in it and also
if you buy prepared tuna salad it often has crumbs. But I didn't feel like
making bread crumbs. I did find some kind of Keebler crackers that nobody
ate and were dated Jan. 1. But the box hadn't been opened. So I crushed up
a few, added the crumbs and tasted the mix. The crumbs were very
discernable. Blech. I am hoping once it sits for a while, they will blend
in.

I have just done too much today and am going to go crash soon. I have to be
at the hospital for my surgery in about 12 hours now so was trying like mad
to get things done and some food in the fridge because I don't know when I
will be ready to do cooking and such. And I figured that tuna salad would
be easy to swallow because it's rather soft. I did put some onion, pickle
and celery in there but mostly it's soft.
