A single serving of a food product can comprise a first cracker, a second cracker, and a non-cracker filling disposed between these crackers to form a cracker-and-filling sandwich. By one approach, the cracker-and-filling sandwich is sized and comprised of ingredients such that eating the cracker-and-filling sandwich as a between-meal snack satisfactorily sates an average adult human beings appetite. By one approach, these crackers have savory shelf-stable filling. By another approach, the savory shelf-stable filling includes a particulate component, such as a particulate meat component. By this approach, the shelf-stable savory filling has a low water activity and covers at least 50 percent of the surface area of the meat particles.
