Hermiones Mom's Journal, 23 January 2017

Here's a reason why I avoid gluten-free prepared foods. Take a look at the ingredients for the new sandwich crackers:

Rice Flour, Vegetable Oil (Palm Oil and/or Soybean Oil), Peanuts, Rice Starch, Sugar, Leavening (Sodium Bicarbonate, Ammonium Bicarbonate, Monocalcium Phosphate), Salt, Cornstarch, Potato Starch, Corn Syrup, Xanthan Gum, Nonfat Dry Milk, Oat Fiber, Soy Lecithin (Emulsifier), Locust Bean Gum.

Rice flour is about as high glycemic as you can get. Combined with rice starch, sugar, cornstarch, potato starch and corn syrup, you end up with crackers that 12 bite size crackers are 150 calories and they claim only 3 grams sugar but I have serious doubts about the veracity of this claim.

Instead, eat some celery with peanut butter. Just saying...

I've eaten Flackers and I think they are quite good. But I have found they are not quite as digestible as I would wish...
