Anytime Snacking with Crunchmaster Crackers

Posted in Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Reviews

Crunchmaster Sea Salt CrackersAs I stated in a previous post, we really enjoy Crunchmaster crackers at our house, so when I was asked if we’d like to try out some of their new cracker line, I quickly said yes.  We received a package of the White Cheddar Multi-Grain Crakcers as well as a package of 7 Ancient Grains Hint of Sea Salt Crackers.  The timing was perfect because I wanted something quick and easy for game day snacking.  I quickly sliced up some cheese and made some chicken salad to serve with the crackers.

We decided to start out by trying the 7 Ancient Grains Hint of Sea Salt Crackers.  Munchkin was the first to try out the crackers.  She said they were okay, but her favorite is still the Crunchmaster Artisan Four Cheese.  She decided to pass on the new crackers and just used her favorite ones.  **grin**  I am very sensitive to too much salt on products, so I was thrilled that it had just enough salt to make the cracker flavor pop in my mouth.  D said they were really good and backed that up by eating the whole bag rather quickly.  lol!  White Cheddar Crackers

Next, we tried the White Cheddar Multi-Grain Crackers.  Mmmm… the white cheddar on these crackers is very tasty.  Munchkin very much liked the white cheddar, but she prefers the texture of the Artisan Four Cheese crackers over the multi-grain crackers.  I thought the cheese flavor was excellent and not overwhelming.  I prefer these multi-grain crackers over the baked rice crackers (such as Artisan Four Cheese).  The multi-grain crackers are sturdy, so they hold up well to a variety of dips including chicken salad (or layer dips like taco dip).  I guess I just like that extra crunch.  D also enjoyed these, but this time, I’m the one that ate most of the crackers.

Once again, Cruchmaster has hit the gluten free mark with these new additions to their cracker line-up.  These crackers will make a great addition to game day snacking or holiday get-togethers or just for every day snacking.  The crackers are certified gluten free, saturated fat free, cholesterol free, and 100% whole grain.  Yep, they’re healthy crackers that taste great!
