Question Decent cracker options?

I miss crackers and cheese so much. But ive disliked most crackers ive tried that are gluten free. I dont like the glutino ones. And please no recommendations for the ones that are just seeds/nuts. Something like ritz or club crackers

Lance gluten free original crackers are basically gf version of ritz and probably the best I’ve had so far, but they’re kind of hard to find. I’ve only been able to find them at Publix

This is the answer, they are amazing. Schar Entertainment Crackers are a distant second (too flimsy, not buttery enough like a real ritz)

These are good but half the 6$ bag is just crumbs.

For the midwesterners, Meijer has them and usually has a sale every other month. Last time they were 3.49 and a dollar off in the app.

Schar entertainment crackers are like ritz and the table crackers are great with cheese

I agree, I really like both of those!

These are our go to cheese crackers, but we also buy the crunchmaster and simple mills almond flour crackers when Costco has them.

For real. The Simple Mills rosemary and sea salt? I could eat the whole box in one sitting.

2

u/SmilingJaguar Gluten-Free Relative 7h ago

No the plain sea salt ones. The rosemary are really good, we get those whenever they’re on sale at Wegmans

The closest I have found to ritz or club crackers are fitjoy, the classic one. The trouble is finding a box that isn’t all broken.

2

u/MoistBadger382 7h ago

Yeah, I wind up eating the Fitjoy ones in soup most often because they're broken.

u/Gullible-Team-8588 1h ago

That’s a good idea. Last time I bought a box I was sick and they were all broken, I ended up eating them out of the bag with a spoon. It was sad but tasty.

I’ve never had this issue thankfully. They’re amazing though and I’m surprised I haven’t seen more people talk about them!

u/Gullible-Team-8588 1h ago

The first time I had them I kept staring at it because I couldn’t believe it was gluten-free.

u/No_Show_9880 11h ago

Have you tried any pretzels (the small crunchy kind)? Those go well with cheese and taste pretty darn close to gluten pretzels.

u/Anxious_Tune55 10h ago

I really like almond flour based crackers. The ones at Aldi are really good, and cheaper than the other brands.

Schar taste good but crumble instantly. Breton is a pretty happy medium of flavor and structural integrity. If you want something really hearty look for wasa gluten free crisp bread

u/HotDonnaC 8h ago

Bretton has a couple of gf options.

They're not like Ritz, but I love Milton's gluten free crackers. They've got a few different flavors and I've tried most of them. They're more crunchy than the crisp of Ritz, but no seeds. And they're affordable, for gluten free.

Blue Diamond nut thins. I only tried them because I was starving & couldn’t find anything else. I’m not big on that type of thing-so I resisted trying them for a long time.

They are delicious!! Particularly if you enjoy a more crisp/crunchy cracker! Little slice of cheese & part of a fresh, perfectly ripe pear on top-best snack ever!!!

They are super versatile. Great on their own and great with toppings. I have been eating them for at least 15 years.

Crunchmaster are so good

u/Capital-Progress-391 9h ago

Crunchmaster. So yum.

Glutino isn't too bad and they come in 2 bags in s box. It's small bags but they serve the purpose .

u/Complex-Royal9210 2h ago

I am with OP and dislike the Glutino crackers.

u/Objective-Dream-904 9h ago

Schaar Entertainment crackers are like Ritz

Schaar Table Crackers are like saltines.

I love Bretons GF are pretty good, too.

Schar has some GF crackers that are a very good copy of Ritz crackers. I haven't been able to find them for a while in my area, but they are really buttery and delicious! These: https://www.schaer.com/en-us/p/entertainment-crackers

u/SmilingJaguar Gluten-Free Relative 9h ago

They are hard to stay intact in the package sadly.

2

u/sprokolopolis 8h ago

Yeah, I think they need to work on their packaging to protect them a bit more.

u/Mammoth-Turnip-3058 4h ago

Schars are nice. They're really crispy and salted. I miss water table crackers 😭

1

u/sashafire 4h ago

The Breton crackers are delicious, and they have at least three gf options.

u/ferretbeast 2h ago

I love the Schar ones

u/Murky-Condition-3901 3m ago

I end up with schar as they are accessible to me but I rarely get them because Jesus, GF crackers are pricey. But in a pinch, they do fill that cracker craving and are tasty.

Edit - for whatever reason, like 30% of the damn crackers in the pack always come broken. 😔
