Message: [QUOTE="Hoophound, post: 2378394, member: 271"] [QUOTE="August_West, post: 2375991, member: 1047" When my father, brother and I get together he has the approximation of the "cheese plate" (Saltines, cheese, raw onion and a mug full of mixed Colmans with a Popsicle stick in it) waiting out on the counter. Love that stuff[/QUOTE] Is this a culturally traditional snack of some sort? At first glance it seems horrible and cheap, but then I look at it and think, "I really love all the components, I'm gonna try it". It seems like a snack that would have evolved during the depression or in a poor Northern European country during war time. The raw onion is roping me in. Raw onion improves anything that isn't dessert in my book. [/QUOTE]
