Crackers: Blue Diamond Pecan Nut-Thins

So for years now we've been enjoying Ka-me rice crackers in a variety of flavors. But you know it's easy to lose taste-bud interest. Here's a product that woke mine up and brought around a regular fiesta!

From Blue Diamond comes Pecan Nut-Thins. These are nut & rice cracker snacks that contain 0 grams of trans fat and are pure deliciousness. The crackers have a rich almost smoky flavor, are super crisp and have the right amount of saltiness too. You can clearly taste the pecans as if you toasted them and crushed them into a cracker yourself. I was truly impressed by their full-bodied buttery flavor.

One thing we did notice is that although on the package it says that [Blue Diamond are] "proud sponsors of the Celiac Disease Foundation", I was unable to locate anything that said the Pecan Nut Thins were actually gluten free. Hmmm- that is a bit disconcerting, however I will just say to eat at your own risk even if the ingredient list appears celiac-safe. I mean I would hope that if they are supporting Celiac Disease research right on the package, they might actually manufacture a gluten free product- and not just use it as an advertising ploy.

So if you do decide to give these a try, please be forewarned that they are highly addictive!
