What are your go to crackers?

[Mike981]

I don't if it's just me, but I feel like all the store bought crackers today are lousy. Cause back in my day...

I'm looking for good tasting/flavor with nice crunch that go with smoked cream cheese, or cheese and sausage.

Speaking of cheese, man that seems like another item, it's hard to find good flavorful cheese. I got some white cheddar from Costco that says, "Seriously Sharp". Ummm, nope.

[Panhead John]

Cuz you can’t have too much cheese…….

[Panhead John]

I bought a store brand of “their Cheez Its ” a few weeks ago and was not impressed. After eating some a few times I went back to the original, threw the store brand ones out.

[mcook2201]

Cheez-It are my drug of choice.

[cruiseplanner1]

Been my favorite for years

[SheilaAnn]

I love the Trader Joe’s Sea Salt Pita Crackers. They are 2” round, maybe? Easily a two-bite snack. They are sturdy enough to schmear say, Boursin cheese. They are firm enough to hold up to a more “wet” topping (for a while anyways). Not too salty.

[Panhead John]

You really should trim that beard SA…….

My mom swore by wheat thins and triscuits for all her cracker appetizer needs way back in the day .... this looks crazy good too

[Murdy]

I like both of those, and they both make a decent low sodium version.

[Alan Brice]

Triscuits "Gouda". Cannot put them down.

[cruiseplanner1]

Those are both the ones we use for spreads.

[gboss]

what'd you call me?

Ritz are my favorite but I eat a lot of plain saltines with peanut butter for lunch. It's been a few years but I smoked some Ritz Crackers and that was kinda good for a change. I need to smoke some soon.

[Panhead John]

Ritz are one of my favorites too!

[BKYDBBQ]

Ritz for me as well...

[snowswamp]

Ritz every time. I don’t buy them because I’ll finish the box just eating them plain. For additions like cheese, spreads, etc, I like the black pepper Triscuits.

[Duanessmokedmeats]

My two friends Bill and Wanda...

[mcook2201]

Besides Cheez-Its for binging, we buy the rosemary crackers for charcuterie boards.

[Carolyn]

I feel the same way about bread. I don't know what formulation they are using to keep the breads shelf stable or strong enough for mass production, but they are doughy and taste weird. I quit buying loaf bread.

I don't get fancier than Ritz, and that is a rare purchase.

I got curious, and there are recipes for artisan crackers that look pretty easy.

[dpearce]

We've noticed the same thing on breads. Seems like I may have to take a page from my mom's book and bake my own. The only saving grace is, I just don't eat a lot of grains these days, including crackers.

[Carolyn]

dpearce I have reduced my bread consumption considerably. The fact that store bread is pretty terrible makes it a lot easier to give it up.

[Huskee]

Cheeze-It or Club. Yum yum. My dad always loved Townhouse but to me they're too salty (and I love salt).

[lstevenson]

I like Ritz!

[johnec00]

Ritz, especially the whole wheat ones.

[Panhead John]

Take a little mayo and mix it with some horseradish, 60/40 mayo to horseradish. Spread it on your favorite cracker and a small slice of some extra sharp cheddar cheese, add a couple pieces of sliced hard salami or pepperoni ……

[au4stree]

I’m a Zesta’s guy. But recently, the wife and I noticed they had a thing on their boxes “new and improved” recipe or something along those lines. It’s funny cuz we’ve eaten those for years and noticed they weren’t the same and since that is written on the box they do taste like the same Zestas. I used to like Ritz, but their crackers are different, seems to be a texture thing🤷♂️

Im not sure, don’t really wanna go look, but it think Zestas and Ritz are no longer made by Nabisco, Kellogg or whoever used to make them. Seems like they were bought by someone in Mexico.
