About Crackers

Crackers are thin, crisp wafers made from a variety of grains, typically wheat or rice, and are often baked. Originating as a simple, portable food staple, crackers have roots in European cuisine, with early versions resembling hardtack used by sailors and soldiers. Today, they come in countless varieties, ranging from plain and salted to flavored or seeded options. Crackers can be a convenient source of energy, usually low in fat and containing some fiber and carbohydrates for quick fuel. Whole-grain or seed-based crackers may offer added nutrients, such as omega-3s, vitamins, and minerals. However, many commercially available crackers are high in sodium and may contain refined grains or additives, which can detract from their overall nutritional value. Pairing crackers with protein-rich toppings like cheese, hummus, or nut butter can make them a balanced snack. Moderation is key to maximizing their benefits while avoiding excess calories or sodium.
