Chicken in a Biskit?

I cannot believe this cracker with this name has a Wikipedia page!  I also can’t believe this cracker with this name made it to market and people have been buying it, for years!  For all of us who pine away thinking of fabulous names for products, listen up.  IT DOESN’T MATTER!  If the product is good, and people like it, they will buy it.  The words don’t even have to be spelled correctly!  In my extensive research on this product (I am SO busy), I learned it was part of an entire product line of "In a Biskit" crackers invented in Australia in 1968.  We might consider ourselves lucky that Chicken in a Biskit was the only one to make it over here - - - Vegemite in a Biskit is also available for export.  I don't think that would fly here, but I do think Bacon in a Biskit would have a fighting chance.  More on cult foods in a later blog . . . . 

What is your favorite cracker?  And what other products can you think of that have crazy names?
