Low Calorie Crackers and Potato Chips

Sunscreen, a hat, and towel always make it in my beach bag, and when it comes to snacks, I always need to pack something salty and crunchy. Chips and crackers are so ridiculously good, and it doesn't help that they can conveniently be enjoyed from a bag or box while you munch away and soak up some rays. Problem is, it's tempting to eat more than your fair share. We already calorie-compared all of Read more

Review of Lance Cracker Creations

As a schoolkid, I grew up eating the same thing for lunch every day — a whole wheat deli meat and cheese sandwich with a pear and baby carrots. Our Michelle Obama-approved pantry had nary a cracker, chip, cookie, or cake in sight. So it was a bit like finding lost treasure every time I managed to get my hands on a four-pack of Lance Captain's Wafers at school. When I recently discovered Lance Read more

Cheez-Its vs. Goldfish Crackers

This question was posed the other day on Twitter by Kristy of GeekSugar, and it is indeed a very tight race. Goldfish are less fattening, but Cheez-Its are undeniably cheesier in flavor. Kristy maintains it's an East Coast versus West Coast thing. I'm on the Left Coast, but in my mind, there's no contest: Cheez-Its win. Thank goodness that our office is stocked with both. Which cracker Read more

Sweet and Savory Recipes For Shortbread Cookies

Over a thoroughly enjoyable bite of blackberry fool, I couldn't help but dream about a crumbly, larden shortbread round to dust off with it. So tonight, while I've still got some blackberry dessert in the icebox, I think I'm going to bake up a batch of shortbread coins to go along with. A traditional shortbread is truly spare of ingredients, calling only for butter, flour, and sugar. In fact, Read more

Recipe For Blue Cheese Shortbread

For an all-natural version of cheese crackers worthy of serving at a party, OnSugar blog Fresh Tart turns to blue cheese and butter to create melt-in-your-mouth blue cheese shortbread. I'll confess. I love Cheez-its. I don't want to know what cheez is, and I endeavor to not eat the things (I forbid them from the house...most of the time), but I'm moved by their flaky, tangy, processed Read more

Favorite Crackers

Snacking on Ritz Pretzel Crisps not only reminded me of my childhood fondness for classic Ritz crackers, but it also got me thinking about my favorite crackers today. While PartySugar and AlexisSF love Wheat Thins, I'm going to have to go with Carr's Table Water Crackers. They have a satisfyingly crisp texture and pair well with any cheese, from a creamy goat to a semifirm cheddar. Oh, and I Read more

Homemade Thyme Cracker Recipe

When YumSugar suggested I make crackers as an edible gift, I immediately envisioned a cheesy cracker that would pair nicely with a bottle of bubbly. However, I realized that if I made a light, crisp herb-infused cracker instead, then I could gift it with a beautiful chunk of cheese. Who doesn't want homemade crackers and artisanal cheese?! Although the thought of cracker dough can be a little Read more
