http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saltine_cracker_challenge
Summary: Eat 6 saltine crackers in 60 seconds or fewer. Do not hyperhydrate your mouth (i.e. intentionally guzzle water) beforehand or drink during.
Obviously it may differ by brand and individual, but for my part I can confirm that salted tops do not affect the time it takes to eat multiple crackers.

It took me almost 60 seconds exactly (just under), eating two at a time.
If you ate a different number than 6, just convert your answer appropriately (i.e. 3 crackers in 30 seconds = 6 in 60).



None.

I can eat one in 5 seconds, so I'll just convert that to 6 in 30 =D.



None.

Afraid that's not how it works :P
... Now I might actually go buy some tomorrow just to try.

Finally, a challenge that I can actually beat everyone at. And prove it.

(I'LL HAVE VIDS UP SOMETIME SOON.)

I don't think we have these in the UK. Maybe we call them something different - they look kind of like Jacob's crackers but smaller.



None.

Are we allowed to stuff as many as we want in our mouth at the same time?



Win by luck, lose by skill.

Y'damn well better if you're claiming you can eat them in 30 seconds. D:<

From Wikipedia: "In the United Kingdom they were made by Huntley and Palmers"
... Well, that was rather little information.
Hope that helps.

I think I almost did 12 in a minute last summer when my cousin proposed it... He said the objective was 12 in a minute, though. I'll have to try it again.

Well our name for them is pretty straight forward. If they're dry crackers with salt on them, they're probably the same.



None.

Crackers are for families. Happy families. Maybe single people eat crackers, we don't know. And frankly we don't want to know.

I want to see these 30 second'ers unless it is some totally different brand that are easier to swallow or if they were really stale and they just go down like candy.

On a different note, has anyone tried to swallow a tablespoon of cinnamon or drink a gallon of milk in an hour?



None.

Don't do either of these. Cinnamon will make you choke to death, while the milk will make you throw up. Cinnamon is known by logic, while milk by video evidence ;o

Congrats; I am now afraid of cinnamon.

I bet whoever came up with this challenge has family that works at a Saltine factory.

Not literally. If you try to swallow it it's almost inevitable that you'll have to breathe in, because its too dry to get moist enough to swallow. When you breathe in, you'll choke. I found out via a protein powder I was taking when I was playing football/wrestling that powders are hard to swallow.

I've seen people successfully do the cinnamon thing. ;o Infact, I want to try it now.

Converting up isn't really accurate, though ... because as you add more saltines it is much harder to do.

Also I ate 3 and that took me a minute. D: Eating just one cracker takes like 15 seconds... not necessarily because of saliva, but because I eat really slowly. (And that was just shoving it all in my mouth ... normally I just take little bites.)

It can be. For me, all three sets of two crackers took within 1.5 seconds of 20 seconds.
