Vitamin C buffers the reaction between the iodine and starch and makes the purple color disappear.

Answer:

Iodine is a chemical that turns purple when mixed with starches, and orange when mixed with sugars. When you mixed saliva with the cracker, amylase in your saliva broke down some of the cracker's starches into sugars, making the iodine less purple and slightly yellow."
