Zehrs aka real canadian superstore

I've definitely heard of great Canadian superstore... But not Zehrs.

Cuz crackers are white?

I know Italians called white people manga cakes (cake eaters) because the mass market white bread we would eat looked like cake to them.

Truuuue....

Did a quick google and :

"Cracker," the old standby of Anglo insults was first noted in the mid 18th century, making it older than the United States itself. It was used to refer to poor whites, particularly those inhabiting the frontier regions of Maryland, Virginia and Georgia. It is suspected that it was a shortened version of "whip-cracker," since the manual labor they did involved driving livestock with a whip (not to mention the other brutal arenas where those skills were employed.) Over the course of time it came to represent a person of lower caste or criminal disposition, (in some instances, was used in reference to bandits and other lawless folk.)

Sorry to detail the thread... Back to actual cracker related talk.

I always thought because they were white and plain? I've also heard vanilla and one of my buddy's Mexican brother-in-law calls white people "chele" in a play on words of "leche" meaning milk.
