Hi Sandy,
For me the name Soda Crackers and Saltines have been interchangeable. They are the same thing.

I printed this recipe from yesterday`s newsletter. I do have a question .The recipe calls for "1/2 box of raisins" What size box?? Would it measure out 1/2 cup, 1 cup or....?
Years ago I believe this was referred to as "War Cake" here in Canada. Thanks

Editor's Note: It looks like a box of raisins is 9 ozs. I think that would be slightly over 1/2 cup of raisins. Susan

We called them Butterfly Bars, since they always FLEW off the tray quickly, but I have misplaced the recipe. The best I remember is that "one MUST use
Parkay Margarine, and NO OTHER BRAND", which I ignored and regretted, and which coconut was added instead of chocolate. If I find the recipe before Christmas, I'll post it. They were so delightful that folks were nearly fighting over the last ones AND the last printed recipe in the stack I made for them. : )
