Actually, harder than you think.  Graham crackers come from the 
nineteenth century.  I don't remember 'zactly the full info (as I recall, 
I read it in the Straight Dope, so it must be true) they were originally 
created to give people other things to do besides thinking lewd 
thoughts.  Or something really wierd like that.
