OTCs...YES!!!
i remember when they came in papaer bags.
we bought them at joe nalbone's grocery store on lamberton st in the 60s.
joe eventually owned the shop-n- bag on whitehorse ave, across from k mart.
the original factory was located at center and furman.
the was factory was recently converted into condos
Hi Brando. I loved em in Tomato Soup! The Cracker Factory Condos
is a cool idea too:)
Mack, I take mine in clam chowder, Manhattan style.
For a few weeks during college, I worked in that cracker factory. It was a old line Trenton company with a niche product. We drove crates of oyster crackers to Philadelphia food warehouses where they were distributed to groceries and restaurants all over the area.
It's an odd product. The aroma while baking was just like bread, but the crackers were dry as dust and hard as rock. Nearly tasteless too. Great in oyster stew, or fish crowder, I suppose. But I don't remember much of a following for oysters growing up there.
