What is this? #08

This is an uncropped 1.6:1 macro of something......

 

Some people might find it easy to identify, whilst others will find it somewhat difficult!

 

Post as many wild, weird and out of the box guesses as you like. No limitation - let your imagination run free!

 

I will post the answer in a few days' time, depending on the reaction.

 

Edited 2021/02/28 to post the answer:

This is an uncropped compilation of 8 focus stacked 1.6:1 macro shots of:

Crackerbread/Crispbread/Knäckerbröd/Hårdbröd/Knækbrød/Knekkebrød/Knäckebrot

 

According to some sources, crackerbread is more than a thousand years old and was a staple of the Vikings on their raids, as a ship with biscuits/crackerbread would keep for several months.

Traditional crackerbread was invented about 500 years ago and consists of wholemeal rye flour, salt, and water.

Today, however, many crackerbreads contains wheat flour, spices, and grains and is often leavened with yeast or sourdough.

 

If stored in dry conditions it will keep fresh and edible for a very long time.

 

Crackerbread contains a large amount of air. In the case of unleavened crisp bread, bubbles are introduced into the dough mechanically.

 

The local crackerbread (Provita) that I used for the photograph looks very much like the UK's Ryvita Original Crackerbread.
