What I'm Reading This Week #36

Well hello you!  So happy you stopped by and hope you're ready for September.  It was a nice birthday week in comparison to last year when we rolled into Kentucky to be greeted with 103 degrees.  So 81?  Yeah, I'll take it!  I saved the gift boxes from my friends to open on my actual birthday including a surprise box I wasn't expecting and it sat in the Amazon pile a little longer than it should have so that was nice.  We got my free bundtlet from Nothing Bundt since I pre-worked it off with 9000 'steps' on the bike for 800 calories.  We both rolled our eyes at the insane amount of visual shrinkage going on there as the cake doesn't even touch the sides of the package anymore like it used to.  If you think we're paying $6 for that crap, you're nuts!  (We don't get them unless there's a bogo going on anyway- way too expensive now compared to the $3.99 they were when they rolled into town 8 years ago.  Anyhoo... It was your typical midweek...

Food Review: Back to Nature Multigrain Flaxseed Seeded Flatbread Crackers

When I went to grab our favorite crackers we occasionally use for tuna salad, they were out.  

Womp womp...

We love the Back to Nature brand and thought we'd give one of the other varieties a try...


Here's a peek at the nutritional info...


You can see the fat it does have are the beneficial ones which is always a plus.

Our usual stone ground seeded crackers are the size of normal crackers but these are longer so it feels like you're getting more.  Each flatbread is like getting 2 1/2 regular sized crackers.


They are nice and sturdy to hold up to my tuna salad for lunch and though they have slightly less sodium than the other crackers (30mg less), it doesn't taste bland.


They would also be perfect for an after workout snack with some apple and cheese slices or peanut butter.  Whatever your preference!


I'd say it's pretty likely we'll be buying these again!  They would make for a nice change in texture and size for cheese plates for entertaining with a healthier twist as well!

Have you tried Back to Nature crackers?  What are your favorite crunchy snacks?

    I have those packed for my lunch with my tuna today so I get to try them and I'm looking forward to it now since you like them. They do look really good with the cheese and apples. Yum!

    I have some that look like those in my cupboard that I like a lot, but they're a different brand. I like crackers of all kinds and popcorn as crunchy snacks.

      I love crackers too (except I need to give Triscuits another try) and love me some TJ's Lite Kettle Corn!

    I like spicy roasted chickpeas, Marys Gone Cracker's with goat cheese or hummus, and spicy popcorn. I guess I really just like salty and spicy! (Also, I'm a first time reader. Love your posts and realness! I love reading blogs to see what's working for others and feel like we're similar in our approach. I'll be back!)
