Back to Nature White Cheddar Flax Seeded Flatbread Crackers
August 21, 2008
Category: Savory snack
Crunch factor: Very crunchy
Taste: Same crunchy goodness as the multigrain version, but the white-cheddar variety has more of an interesting smell as opposed to an appealing flavor. Plus, a slight sweetness put off two tasters. Hence, the lower score than the multigrain. Read More

Category: Sweet treat
Crunch factor: Crunchy!
Taste: A complete about-face after the blueberry blunder: intense but balanced cinnamon-raisin flavor in a delightfully crunchy, toasty cookie. In little single-serving bags (about seven per pack), they keep their flavor and texture. Read More

We were more than a little skeptical at the “never baked, never fried” credo on the side of the bag, and after several calls to the manufacturer, we are still mystified as to what technology they use to get so much crunch into a chip without leaving a greasy film on our hands. We’re still investigating. But in the interest of snacking fanatics everywhere, we give you this review of a truly crunch-worthy product. Read More

Popchips Barbeque Potato Chips
August 14, 2008
Category: Savory snack
Crunch factor: Nearly perfectly crunchy
Taste: We loved the way the smoky, sweet barbecue stuck to the chip and filled our mouths with flavor. The sweet taste was too cloying to some, but one person gave it the ultimate compliment, saying it tasted “just like a full-fat version.” Read More
