In all seriousness, goldfish crackers have quite the history in our little family. We bought them by the pallet for our kids when they were toddlers, and they remain a staple for us to this day.
The topper: they’re made by the good folks at Pepperidge Farms. Because Pepperidge Farms remembers. Goodness, I’ve just dated myself. Oh well.
So when I came across this single orphaned cracker on the road near our house, I couldn’t resist. When our youngest was two-years-old, I wrote a newspaper column about his goldfish addiction, and these silly-looking snacks will always trigger an irrational moment in my clearly convoluted mind.

I’m going to guess we all have food triggers that evoke powerful memories. What are yours?
