Flackers Part 2: Back with a Vengeance

The first time I tried Flackers it did not end well. I tried the Savory kind and there was such a weird taste to it that I literally couldn’t eat them. I had to throw them out. I thought that was it and that I would never cross paths with them again. Funny how things work out though.


In my last Keto Krate I received a bag of Flackers Rosemary flavored and instantly thought this is not going to end well. It's essentially a bunch of seeds bonded together into some flat "cracker". I surely wasn't going to change my mind on this. But I decided that it's only fair to give them a try since it’s a new flavor and I hate to waste food.


So this time around I decide to do things a little bit different. Let me start by my simple review. I tasted a Rosemary Flacker by itself to see what I thought of the new flavor. And while I don’t think it was amazing, the flavor works much better than the Savory did. It comes across closer to that of a Trisket with this taste. Still not great though. I would probably go to the Rawxies crunch before I do something like this by itself again.


Then I decided to get a little crazy. After all, crackers are best enjoyed with something on them. So I pulled out some yummy Spinach Artichoke dip I got from Costco (review coming soon) to put on these. Bam! We have a cracker folks. When you actually put something on them to help get some more taste its great and a great cracker substitute which not many exist. Still made up of small seeds, but its way more satisfactory this way. I actually feel like I was eating a guiltless version of crackers and dip. This is the way for them to be enjoyed without a doubt and they will probably become my new chip and dip substitute. Cause let's be honest, aren't chips really just a device used to get dip in your mouth. No one really cares that much about chips, but we always talk about how good a dip is.


Try them out with a nice dip and see what you think.

I was disappointed with the rosemary variety of Flackers when I purchased them at the store, I found them to be really tasteless. I thought the Savory version was better, I eat them with chicken salad, the Worcestershire sauce flavor seems to go well with the chicken. I like the Dill flavor the best and make a scratch garlic, dill hot sauce, and chive dip that works well with them... but they work well with cream cheese or just a piece of good cheddar.... everybody's taste buds work different....
