Food Review: Simple Truth Fig & Thyme Crisp Crackers
03/22/2023
Crackers, they seem like such a simple food, but have you ever taken the time to read the ingredient label of some of the popular cracker brands?
Many of them are loaded with artificial ingredients, fats, and added sugars. No wonder they're so tasty! But I don't need Ammonium Bicarbonate, High Fructose Corn Syrup AND sugar, as well as partially hydrogenated oils (transfat) in my snacks.
Enter Simple Truth
If you're not familiar with Simple Truth, it's a Kroger brand featuring organic items and products with "cleaner" ingredients. The brand is USDA organic certified and you'll find a range of products in the dairy, meat, snacks, and other aisles in a Kroger store.
With a healthier cracker in mind, I recently picked up a box of Simple Truth Fig & Thyme Crisp Crackers. The combination of savory and sweet enticed me and in addition to the fig and thyme, the crackers also have flax seeds, pumpkin seeds, and millet baked into them. Delivering a very satisfying cracker crunch, they're a bit thyme-forward on their own, but the herbal notes balance out nicely when the cracker is topped with a slice of cheese or a bit of fig jam. Suggested cheeses to go with these crackers are goat, cheddar, and brie.
Available at Dillons for $4.49 for a 5.3-ounce box, I'm giving Simple Truth Fig & Thyme Crisp Crackers 4 out of 5 Bachelor on the Cheap stars. They have a nice crunch with the sweet and savory flavor going on and will dress up any charcuterie board. It's a nice change of pace cracker with a healthier nutritional profile and is worthy of a repeat buy.
