If you're like me and looking for alternatives to carb and sugar-heavy foods, you might be interested in Fat Snax. They make a variety of Keto crackers and cookies that all look interesting. I read some decent reviews and thought I'd try the sea salt crackers.
First of all, if you have ever tried anything low-carb, you already know that it's not going to taste the same as "regular" foods. The lack of white flour really impacts the flavors, and almond flour definitely has a different flavor, as does coconut flour and other alternatives. All of this said, the crackers' flavor itself wasn't bad. They were salty and pretty good when I tried them with a little cheese and again with a bit of butter, both of which are my favorite ways to eat crackers.
They are pretty tiny-maybe a third of the size of a saltine--and I don't know how they would stand up against a hot bowl of soup, which was the third thing I wanted to try. I'm out of my favorite keto soup, though. The texture is... soft. I get what they were trying to go for but that pillowy texture combined with crunch in a regular cracker just isn't there. It's more of a soft break than a crunch.
If you're craving crackers in a pinch, I think they'll do, but for the expense and having to order them special outside my usual grocery order, I don't know if I'd get them often. To be fair, many keto items have to be ordered that way (although I am partial to the keto bread at Aldi). I might try other products, though. They do have 2 net carbs per serving, and 2 servings per bag.
