I found the "biscuit/Commonwealth English" comment confusing - I've certainly never crackers referred to as biscuits in the UK. They're crackers.


I have on my self at home a box of Table Water Crackers from Carr's of Carlysle, Made in England. Are these not called crackers in the United Kingdom? And why does it say made in "England"? Should I also be able to find made in Scotland and Made in Wales labels? Rmhermen 16:30 Jan 22, 2003 (UTC)

The general public will be much more familiar with the biscuit and the racial slur than with any other sense.

The biscuit possibly, but the racial slur seems to be a specialised US usage.

I guess Cracker should be either a disambiguation page or retained for the biscuit.

Disambiguation is best, since most of the pages that link here want Cracker (computing).
