Glutino’s “any-time-of-day” gluten-free table crackers ~ crunchy and so good!

Glutino Gluten-Free Table Crackers

Sometimes I just want a cracker.  Like Polly, nothing’s needed to make it any better than just what it is.  A cracker.  Glutino makes a fine gluten free table cracker that fits this craving, and it’s available in most grocery stores.

When I was young, I remember birthday times when extra cake frosting was left in the bottom of the bowl.  We’d scrape it up and layer it onto a beautiful saltine cracker.  Sometimes we’d color the frosting, sometimes we’d add some extract, but whether or not it ‘looked’ good was not important… we knew it would always taste delicious.

A little leftover birthday cake frosting on a Glutino Table Cracker… a nice pairing ;o).

So yes, we sugared it up.

When I first went gluten free in 2010 (after twelve years of not knowing why my stomach always hurt, the foggy memory, the joint aches…) I went through the phase of being a bit sad I’d have to say good-bye to many of my old comfort foods.  That’s another story for another post, however I have since found that frosting on top of Glutino’s Gluten Free Table Crackers is just as satisfying for that extra-birthday-cake-frosting-leftover-treat.

That said, I mostly like them plain.  Sometimes I just want something crunchy, and these little ‘premium squares’ are a fix for that.  A serving size of three crackers is 150 calories, so one is simply 50.  Not too bad.

I also use them crunched up in soups, chili, on top of my every-so-often-made-tuna-casserole dish, and anything else that could use a little c – r – u – n – c – h.

Oh, and then there’s the ultimate usage – the ice cream spoon replacement!  Yes, my parents are from the midwest, so I’m guessing that’s where this all started.  I’m not a huge ice cream indulger, but when I do, you can bet I’m eating that Ben & Jerry’s New York Super Fudge Chunk on top of a Glutino Gluten Free Table Cracker.

Don’t judge.  Give it a try!
