A few weeks ago, the folks at Crunchmaster asked if they
could send me some gluten-free crackers to try in exchange for my review. I
agreed, since I am always looking for new allergy-friendly treats for my boys.
After visiting their website, I determined that we could only have a couple of
different varieties due to multiple food allergies. As a result, they sent me
their Sea Salt Multi-Grain crackers, which were safe for my boys to try.
The Sea Salt Multi-Grain crackers are gluten-free, dairy-free,
soy-free, and vegan.
Around the time I received the crackers, I had some
meetings scheduled for my nonprofit. Many people involved with my nonprofit
either have children with food allergies and sensitivities, or have their own
personal dietary concerns. I literally had a captive audience of people who
understand gluten-free. It was a perfect opportunity for an impromptu taste
test!
The general consensus was very positive and there was no hesitation
with their opinions whatsoever. One comment I received was that the crackers
had a very satisfying crunch. Another person said that they were good enough to
eat by themselves just as a snack – you do not need dip or other toppings to
enjoy them.
I took the remaining crackers home to test with my husband
and my boys. We all tried them out when I prepared potato soup for dinner one
night. I thought the crackers would be a perfect accompaniment, and I was right.
My boys loved them so much they finished off all of the rest of the crackers in
one sitting.
From my own taste test, I can tell you that the Crunchmaster
crackers have a slightly different texture than many of the typical rice-based
gluten-free crackers on the market, which is a pleasant and appreciated change.
If you are familiar with what I’m talking about, those other kinds of crackers
can almost have a waxy feel to them, which I do not prefer.
I also like that some of their products are verified
GMO-free by the Non-GMO Project. Unfortunately, the variety I tried was not
verified GMO-free. I hope that Crunchmaster continues working on getting the
rest of their products verified.
Another way to make the product more desirable
to families like mine is to use organic ingredients. This is very important to
us and we always prefer to purchase products that are organic.
Overall, the Crunchmaster Sea Salt Multi-Grain crackers were
a big hit with everyone who tried them. If you are interested in tasting them
for yourself, they offer a coupon on their site that you should check out.
