Special K - Crackers-Italian Tomato & Herb —
The Special K Italian Tomato & Herb Crackers take me back to my childhood. When I was in middle school my church took us to a Christian camp during the summer. It was the Bill Rice Ranch in Murfreesboro, TN. During our free time we would often hang out at the Trading Post--a shopping area at the camp. I was entering the very picky eating phase and turbulent adolescent years. One of the things I loved to eat was the pizza crust with tomato sauce--nothing else on it, not even the cheese. My youth pastor noticed that I would order a slice of pizza for 2 bucks and then pull all the topping off only to roll the crust up and eat it. He made a comment to my brother and my brother told him, "Just be happy that she wants to eat." During the rest of the two weeks I was at camp my youth pastor would follow me to the Trading Post and if I bought pizza he would to. Then he would come over and have me take my topping and place it on his.The other day I was at Wal-Mart, of course and I saw the Special K Crackers on a center display. They had a sign on them $2.78. At first I thought they were going to be like the Nabisco Sun-Dried Tomato & Basil Wheat Thins; which I love so I wanted to try them. Well, when I got closer I realized it wasn't a box of crackers but rather those little low cal packs. The box contains 6 -0.77 oz. pouches. Each pouch is 90 calories.
I put them away and forgot I had them until about a week later. I took a pack to the office and I really liked them. Each pouch probably has about 12-15 quarter-sized crackers in them. The crackers are a little softer than the crunchy Wheat Thins. Special K Italian Tomato & Herb tastes like crackers that have been marinated in marinara sauce. You don't just get a hint of tomato or herb. When you put a Special K cracker in your mouth you get a mouthful. Let the cracker sit on your tongue for a few seconds and you will swear that you are indulging in pizza. Yes, it's that good!
I will definitely be buying these again. I gave a pack to a friend at church and her daughter told me the next day that her mother really liked them. The pouch is just big enough to satisfy my craving for a snack. And I figure if it has the Special K logo on it then it is probably going to be pretty healthy, right? I don't know how something that tastes so good can be good for you but this might be a dieter's answer to a late night snack or low cal snack between meals.
