Mary's Gone Crackers Thins

Mary's Gone Crackers Thins

While we don't eat a ton of crackers normally, I suspect that I may more often on the elimination diet.  I'm so accustomed to eggs as my breakfast protein, and with those I don't really need a grain to balance them.  But with something like chicken salad for breakfast I suspect I will want a cracker.  This morning we gave these Mary's Gone Crackers Thins a try.  They were the base for grass fed beef liver pate, which is a tough first challenge.  The verdict: they held up!

We tried the Kale flavor, and for that one the ingredients are:

Mary's organic Thins gluten free blend (tapioca starch*, sorghum flour*, potato starch*, brown rice flour*, whole grain quinoa flakes*, mesquite flour*, sprouted black bean flour*, sprouted buckwheat flour*, amaranth flour*), filtered water, palm fruit oil* (palm fruit oil* and extra virgin red palm oil*), tapioca syrup*, chia seeds*, safflower oil* and/or sunflower oil*, coconut palm sugar* (from coconut palm flower nectar), sesame seeds*, sea salt, dill weed*, sodium and ammonium bicarbonate (for leavening), kale flakes*, smoked paprika powder*, rice bran extract*, parsley*, xanthan gum, rosemary extract*, and black pepper*. *Organic.

I've been buying the original Mary's Gone Crackers for a while now, but always found them a little too crunchy, especially for my 1 year old.  Also, they have soybeans in them, so off limits during the elimination.  Frankly I'm glad they were, because it made me try these which are so much better!  They really taste like a normal cracker, with a nice sturdy but light texture.  I'm not sure the Kale flavor will end up being my favorite, but I'm excited to try some of the other flavors soon.
