Product Watch: The good, the bad, and the yucky

Doctor Kracker (various products)

They have more than five ingredients and they’re not locally produced. Otherwise, these satisfying, certified-organic crackers from a Texas-based company are right in line with modern thoughts about improving the way we eat. Ingredients in the Klassic 3 Seed cracker, for instance, start with organic whole-wheat flour, move on to the likes of organic sunflower seeds and flax, and have an enjoyable hard crunch. The graham crackers — made from organic spelt flour, sugar and butter — are sweet and cinnamony enough to capture a kid’s thumbs-up.

Bottom line: Like Ak Maks? You’ll love Doctor Kracker.

“The Big Game” Diet Cheat Sheet

The biggest problem with all these dips is the company they keep — namely crackers and chips. Your best bet is to pick 100 percent whole-grain crackers with very few ingredients and no added sugar. We like Dr. Krackers (www.drkracker.com)…

Crackers

Face it: Ritz Crackers may be popular, but they’re pretty wimpy. If you want a cracker with some personality, try Doctor Kracker — they’re organic, artisan-baked and closer in taste and texture to a European flatbread. (”Uber Delicious! Uber Crunch!” the company says.) Varieties include “Klassic 3 Seed” and “Pumpkin Seed Cheddar.” Available for around $19 to $22 per case (six seven-ounce packages).

Nutritional snack foods for your family

It’s oftentimes tempting to fill up on traditional snack foods, such as cookies and potato chips.

The Whole Truth About Grains

There are whole-grain treats for snacks, whether you crave a salty pretzel or you need to soothe a sweet tooth. Triscuits and Sun Chips are made with whole grains. So are many of Snyder’s of Hanover pretzels, tortilla strips and chips, as well as many snacks from Kashi, Health Valley, Mary’s Gone Crackers and Dr. Kracker.

Doctor Kracker Klassic 3-Seed Flatbread and Snacker

What We Liked Best: The “au-natural”-ness of these crackers is great, and the ingredients list is practically saintly. They are good alone as a snack, as a base for peanut butter or low-fat cheese, or even as a dipper, instead of chips.

Snack Attack! Doctor Kracker Snack Chips

Doctor Kracker could be a quack, but we’d still admire his handiwork. Not only are the seven toothsome flatbreads and old-fashioned graham crackers from this Texas snack company studded with stuff that’s great for you - seeds, nuts and whole grains - they’re heavy on flavor, too. But don’t trust us: Grab a 99-cent snack pack (we recommend the pumpkinseed and cheddar) from a natural foods store or a deli near you.

It’s time to think Pumpkins! This company prides itself in making organic cracker snacks that are also packed with whole grains. Pumpkin seeds are one of the most flavorful and nutritious seeds around. The mixture of cheddar cheese makes a great combination. These extremely crunchy little snacks also contain 4 g of fiber. A surprisingly nice flavor for such a healthy little snack. Also available in Klassic 3 Seed, Sunflower Cheddar, Seedlander, and Seeded Spelt. Retails for $0.99/1.0-oz bag.
