I once saw a bizarre implement advertised in one of those catalogues that fall out of the Sunday supplements. It was like a sort of catapult for Ritz crackers. The idea was that you sent the Ritz crackers flying into the ether and then aimed at them with some kind of non-lethal weapon (I forget what exactly - cap gun, pea shooter, sling shot? Something like that) in a sort of pointless, crumby version of clay pigeon shooting.
My best guess is that this was dreamed up as a way to get people to buy Ritz crackers. Whatever, 'crackers' is definitely the correct word.
