What You Should Know

You’d spot these in the supermarket snack or cracker aisle and they’re an easy, light cracker to grab for wine-and-cheese, a picnic, or a travel snack. They give off a slightly wholesome, nut-forward vibe while still feeling like an indulgent, crispy convenience. The refined rice flour and potato starch plus added oil and “natural flavors” create the airy crunch and shelf-stable texture typical of industrially formulated snacks.
