About Crackers, standard snack-type, regular, low salt
A cracker is a thin, crisp baked good made from flour, water, and a little fat, rolled flat and baked until dry and snappy. Crackers range from plain water crackers and buttery rounds to saltines, graham crackers, whole-grain crisps, and seeded artisan styles, and they turn up everywhere from lunchboxes to cheese boards. Because they keep for a long time and travel well, they have been a practical staple for centuries, once carried as hardtack on long sea voyages.
Nutrition varies widely: a small serving runs roughly 60 to 130 calories, and whole-grain versions add useful fiber, while many crackers carry notable sodium, so it pays to check the label. They shine paired with cheese, dips, spreads, and soups, or crumbled as a crunchy topping. Whole-grain and low-sodium options suit lighter snacking. Keep crackers in an airtight container so they stay crisp, since humidity quickly turns them stale and soft.
