Product Name: Organic Herb Crackers

Location Purchased: King Soopers

A to Z Review: 3 Stars

A's Review: * * *
Very dense, dry, and sesame seems to be the dominant flavor. You absolutely need to eat these with cheese and something to drink, and better if both of those also have their own strong flavors. I am sure someone out there will like these...but they are not very high on my list.

Despite an A+ for the hilarious brand name, I'm not sure if I am in love with these crackers. In my opinion, there might be too much going on with them for them to qualify as crackers! I always think of crackers as the backup to a really great cheese or dip, but these crackers are so flavorful all by themselves I think you might be a little limited in what you could pair them with. Although they don't have any nuts in them, they somehow end up tasting what I would call "nutty." Sort of "brown," if brown had a flavor. Something in the blend is a bit overpowering. The sesame or flax seed, perhaps? I think they taste pretty good with a mild cheddar cheese, but they are certainly a weird cracker!

Product Name: Rice Crackers (Artisan Cheese and Toasted Sesame)

Location Purchased: Costco

Cost: $6.99 for 6-pack (3 Artisan Cheese; 3 Toasted Sesame)

Total From A to Z:
4 Stars

We found these at Costco, the source of many of the tasty things in our kitchen. There are two flavors: Artisan Four Cheese and Toasted Sesame. Think of a smaller, denser puffed rice cake and you'll have a good idea of how they taste. They are a bit on the dry side (for better or worse), so you would not want to eat too many unless you had something to go with them. Small cubes of cheddar go well, and if you threw in some good lunchmeat, you'd have yourself a nice little horse doover platter. I will say that I don't generally like the flavor of sesame, but these crackers are good enough to make me forget that.

You can't beat the value of these crackers when you get them at Costco - $7 bucks for six packages! The 6-pack comes in two flavors: Artisan Cheese and Toasted Sesame. I find that I like the Artisan Cheese flavor a little bit better, but the Toasted Sesame ones are good as well. These crackers are good as a snack by themselves, but they also taste great with a soft cheese. I even like them with cream cheese! However (perhaps I'm being a bit too honest here) I do find that they get stuck in my teeth when I eat a bunch in a row But that's my only complaint about this crunchy, gluten-free goodness!!
