Crunchmaster’s Crackers

Posted on October 14, 2011 by Cheryl Harris

I usually don’t do reviews.  The reason I made an exception for Crunchmaster’s crackers is because nutritionally, they’re actually *gasp* on the decent end of things.  Most GF crackers are rice crackers or corn starch or potato starch and such … Continue reading →
