With whatever was available in the fridge at the time as a kid cream cheese, shit cheeses my parents ate, butter, mayo and yes even ketchup, remember not having anything in the fridge on crackers once and laying a bunch out and drizzling olive oil on them with a dash of black pepper too, wasn't bad.

*also* used to crumble crackers onto warm apple sauce as a treat. apple sauce and crackers/bread and butter where the staple sides for every meal. i think it’s just a result of the frugality my grandparents grew up with during the Great Depression being passed down. to this day I still kinda eat that way even though I have a decent amount of money.

Yes, pretty regularly. But I am older gen x. Probably less common today, with all the other cheap easy shit available.
It wasn't really poor people making due and improvising, it was more of a thing on its own. Given a choice, some kids just preferred buttered crackers even if there was something else to eat.
