Apparently people DO remember this because the post got 392 comments! Upon further investigation it seems like this snack was often enjoyed as a side of soup. People say they dipped the butter crackers in chicken soup broth or even a seafood or chowder. This is a nostalgic snack for many especially when they are feeling sick.
Many people said their parents used to eat crushed up saltines in milk and eat it with a spoon like cereal, a depression era snack. Maybe the saltines with butter is a variation of that!
