I agree with the first reviewer, that they are mostly broken up pieces. Approx 15% may be whole & intact. I also agree that they should have packaged them in a reclosable bag, especially since they are not manufactured with a strong preservative.
I had low expectations for them before I took the first bite so I was v-e-r-y pleasantly surprised. They taste just like ritz crackers to me but without all the unhealthy additives & preservatives. The taste may be a little more mild, but it was still distinctly ritz to my taste buds.
-On the plus side: Tasty! Multigrain; Not too much salt; Low sugar (2g/srvg); No Hydrogenated oils; Organic; No saturated fat nor trans fat.
-On the down side: contains milk & wheat; Only 5oz per box (says 5 servings/bag but it was only 2 servings for me); 80-85% of crackers are broken even in an intact box.
Obviously, our taste buds vary so I can't assure anyone they will agree with my verdict. But I personally enjoyed them & will purchase more despite the minuses.
Hope that helps
I started using Amazon groceries to order various healthy snacks directly sent to me in the office. It has paid off enormously as I am in great shape eating lots of high energy food (low/ no sugar) throughout the day and this lets me a very light lunch.
That being said I guess I was expecting more from these when I ordered them off of Amazon groceries. The price was right but the biggest problem for these is that they are kind of tasteless. You really need to eat them with something else. The other major problem is that they come all broken and at best 20% of the crackers are intact. You really end up eating the box as a "cracker chips". Also the box has no clasps or folds so there is no way to actually close the thing which isn't exactly a bastion for freshness...
Bottom Line: They are alright and if your expectations are prepared before getting these you might be surprised.

I gave these 3 stars because I really like the flavor of these crackers, but as stated in many of the other reviewers' comments, they don't hold up in shipping, so for the packaging, I would only give them about 1 star. I actually purchased 18 boxes (3 cases), 6 each of the 3 flavors and I had to open all 18 boxes to just get enough "whole" crackers for my guests (8 people) for Thanksgiving appetizers. I could only get about 6-8 crackers per box that were not broken literally into crumbs. I did, however, contact the factory and they were very apologetic and said they will address the problem and offered to send me additional boxes. Hopefully these will arrive in better condition and they will get the problem resolved, because I would love to keep purchasing these crackers.

I've been trying to find a source for this since having it in a chicken sauce at TRU restaurant in Chicago. None of my local stores seem to even know what it is. For those of you wondering, the nearest thing I can use as a comparison is the French answer to balsamic.
Martin Pouret wine vinegars are most excellent. They impart a vinegar flavor which is neither bitter nor harsh. I only use Pouret red, white and tarragon for my cooking purposes.
Saw these in the store, and being that wine gums can be hard to find, I couldn't pass it up. I am working through my second bag in two days. Addicting. This brand is very good. Don't know it's history, but carries lots of British symbols. Anyway, they taste very good.
I'd steal for this chocolate.
I purchased this for my sister over the holidays and she loved it. Very generous portions and a wonderful variety. Especially in these hard times, this is a thoughtful gift to send to those you love. Service was excellent all the way to delivery. Thank you.
