Mary's Gone Crackers Herb Flavor <\/p><\/div>\n

And now I bring you OHC’s first raw and unedited review.\u00a0 This is a conversation between the Pres and VP of OHC.\u00a0 Be forewarned that this is not for the faint of heart. Please act responsibly. May not be appropriate for all audiences.<\/p>\n

Setting: OHC HQ kitchen, where the magic happens. And also swearing, double dipping, and disregard for napkins.<\/em><\/p>\n

Scott:<\/strong> What are those?<\/p>\n

Me:<\/strong> These are crackers that are taking the blog world by storm apparently. People have gone crackers. *rolls eyes, makes jazz hands and shakes them, looks silly*<\/p>\n

Scott:<\/strong> Nice what you did there. What’s special about them?<\/p>\n

Me:<\/strong> I think it’s that they are free of everything.<\/p>\n

Scott:<\/strong> What do you mean, free?<\/p>\n

Me:<\/strong> Like gluten free, dairy free…<\/p>\n

Scott:<\/strong> Flavor free?<\/p>\n

Me:<\/strong> I’m not sure about that. I just know these are totally free and not repressed crackers.<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong> <\/strong><\/strong> <\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Crackers?\"<\/a><\/em><\/em>

Crackers?<\/p><\/div>\n

Opens box and pulls out some crackers.<\/em><\/p>\n

Me:<\/strong> Wow perhaps I need to be more open minded because these do not look like crackers.<\/p>\n

Scott: <\/strong>They look like…<\/p>\n

Me:<\/strong> Shut it! We’re about to actually eat them, alright. I do not want that image.<\/p>\n

Each takes one and proceeds to eat it. Scott smells the cracker before ingesting as is his custom.<\/em><\/p>\n

Scott: <\/strong>These are weird.<\/p>\n

Me: <\/strong>Totally, right. What a bizarre little cracker. I use this term loosely.<\/p>\n

Scott: <\/strong>They have a familiar taste.<\/p>\n

Me:<\/strong> Really? Like what?<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Not<\/a><\/strong><\/strong>

Not Repressed Crackers <\/p><\/div>\n

Scott:<\/strong> Give me a minute.<\/p>\n

Me:<\/strong> *coughing*<\/em> Okay these are not crackers to just munch on.\u00a0 Let me get out some hummus.<\/p>\n

Scott:<\/strong> Doesn’t help. I can still taste the taste.<\/p>\n

Me: <\/strong>It’s slightly less for me. These are much better with something. I do not think they can handle being alone. They are actually not so free.<\/p>\n

Scott: <\/strong>MORNINGSTAR SAUSAGE PATTIES! That’s what these taste like.<\/p>\n

Me:<\/strong> You are on crack.<\/p>\n

Scott:<\/strong> Whatever, that is the taste.<\/p>\n

Few minutes pass, more “crackers” are eaten.<\/em><\/p>\n

Me:<\/strong> You’re totally right. Veggie sausage patties right there.<\/p>\n

Scott: <\/strong>I know! The crispy surface bit that gets the most skillet time, that’s these crackers.<\/p>\n

Me:<\/strong> Totally. Sausage crackers. Yup.<\/p>\n

Scott:<\/strong> See.\u00a0 I can’t eat these. Sausage crackers not my thing.<\/p>\n

\n

\"Sausage<\/a>

Sausage Crackers <\/p><\/div>\n

I proceeded to try them again, plain, with hummus, and crushed in a salad and the consensus is that these are sausage crackers.\u00a0 Whatever herb is supposed to be in these does not stand out.\u00a0 I can’t taste anything other than crispy sausage bits. While tasty on sausage, not tasty on crackers.Would I get these again? No. I still have the box and occasionally break them out but they are not something I reach for.<\/p>\n

Would I eat them? Yes. If someone served them with a dip, mind you, then I would eat them because they are edible<\/em>. They are just not desirable<\/em>. I also think that if a product has to put, “Tastes great!” on the box, that says a great deal about the product.<\/p>\n

These aren’t too common and I’ve only seen them in a few grocery stores.\u00a0 If you are looking for totally free crackers, give them a try, you might like them.\u00a0 The HQ is sticking with repressed crackers.<\/p>\n

P.S. Sorry there was no Tuesday Tip yesterday, HQ life is super crazy at the moment! I know you understand.<\/p>\n<\/dt>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
