365 by Whole Foods Market, Organic Butter and Garlic Croutons, 4.5 Ounce
What You Should Know
You'd grab these organic butter and garlic croutons from the salad/soup aisle or toss them into a cart during a last-minute grocery run for salads, soups, or snacky sides. They project a crunchy, comforting, slightly nostalgic vibe and are marketed as 'organic' and wholesome, but the texture, long shelf life, and use of ingredients like maltodextrin and isolated wheat gluten reveal industrial processing typical of shelf-stable flavored croutons.
