Whilst shopping at Safeway I discovered a new cracker product from one of our much loved Aussie biscuit company's..
Now, I LOVE their products for lunch (especially the sesame seed version) so I thought I’d give this a try after all the packaging makes the crackers look SO tasty with the tuna, tomato, cucumber, lettuce and stuff on it and it’s advertised as “bursting with nutty taste and goodness”, “satisfying” and “easy to eat”. Now, in MY opinion something that is “satisfying” and “easy to eat” is chocolate.. So, considering I LOVE chocolate I thought I’d LOVE these...
Some examples of what I DON’T consider satisfying or easy to eat are:
1.Cat/dog poo (or any poo for that matter)
2.Cardboard
3.Car tyres
4.Glass
5.Metal bolts (or any other metal for that matter)
6.Coriander (yeah that is a bit of left field but I think it is warranted in this list.. In fact let’s add eggplant too)
7.Eggplant (and eggs!)
8.Eggs
9.Witchetty grubs and Earth worms
10.I think I am done with this list.
Now, whilst I am not here to bad mouth this new range from a very popular and long standing Aussie product, I think that they CAN DO BETTER!
Sitting in the office kitchen, armed with Philly cheese and a tin of “chicken in a tin” I am eager to find out what they taste like only to be left disappointed (and hungry)..
Now, colloquially I would be referred to as a “bird” however, in this case I can assure you I am not the kind of bird that eats cardboard... This product is dreadful beyond comprehension. It is bland, doesn't even smell nice, tough as old leather and I reckon you’d get more enjoyment out of eating the box it comes in.. It certainly looks more appealing.
So, here are 10 good uses for the Soy Linseed and Sesame Lunch Crackers:
1.A square Frisbee
2.Coffee mug coaster
3.Dog Chew Toy
4.Kitchen sponge
5.Kindling for a fire
6.Bird food
7.Ninja weapon
8.A wedge for a wobbly table
9.Insulation for a home or shed
10.Note pad (with the aid of a Sharpie Pen and you can use the black linseeds as full stops)
I will admit that on their packaging they do claim that these crackers are “100% natural and high in fibre”.. I guess they have to tell the truth about something right?
