Review: Eating goldfish crackers always reminds me of the trips my mother and I would take to the Pepperidge Farms outlet store in Milwaukee. This time, however, I was reminded of my childhood trips to the Milwaukee County Zoo where I would feed tiny food pellets to the goats from the palm of my hand.

The reason for this? Michaelia insisted on raising palm-fulls of orange smiling crackers to my mouth until I ate them. In keeping with my childhood memories of the ravenous and sloppy goats, I proceeded to lick, nibble and let crumbs fall from my teeth back into her palm. I think she thought it was cute...or disgusting...or a bit of both.

The crackers were the same as I remember them. Crunchy, with a light taste of cheddar that stays in your mouth long after you have swallowed. The dryness of the crackers insures a wad of cracker-mush buildup around your gums that you will be picking away with a finger before the night is through. The mush is a tasty byproduct itself. I know it sounds disgusting, but it has a texture and taste all its own which differs from the initial crunch and taste of the crackers. Goldfish are like two snacks in one if you don't just wolf and swallow like you do everything else.
