I am supposed to eat soft foods for another week but i have tried crackers and it didnt bother me. Is it bad to be trying that?

I'm in my 3rd week post-op, and saltines (4-6 per serving) are part of my mushy diet from the clinic, too. They really breakdown very quickly into mush in the mouth when chewing. To be on th safe side, it took me 20 minutes to eat 6 crackers smeared with a VERY thin bit of creamy Peanut Butter (also allowed on my mushy phase)... LOL! I took very small bites and chewed them a lot. So as long as you chew them well, it shouldn't be a problem.
