What You Should Know

You'd find this box in the supermarket cracker aisle or tucked into a lunchbox for a midday snack; it's the kind of simple, everyday cracker that evokes light, familiar snacking. The vibe is practical and mildly nostalgic, while the list of enriched/refined flour, added sugar and oil, leavening agents and microbial enzymes — plus the cracker's consistent, crispy texture — indicate industrial processing typical of ultra-processed products.

Common Questions about Thin Wheat Square Crackers, 8 OZ

Well, 'healthy' can be a bit subjective! These crackers are relatively low in calories and fat, making them a decent snack option when you're craving something crunchy. However, they aren't packed with fiber or protein, so if you're looking for a snack that keeps you full longer, you might want to pair them with something like hummus or cheese.
