Crackers

Every time I go to Walmart, I am always on the lookout for new stuff to try.  Today was no different. 
I knew that I was making tomato soup, and I had decided that I was going to get some of my flat bread, cut it into small pieces, bake it, and try to make some crackers to go with my soup.  As I was headed over to get it, I noticed some boxes above the fancy cheese section near the deli.  I went over to see what they were, and I found some crackers!!!  Here is what they are:

Ok...so they are Crisps instead of crackers....but they are crackers!  They have 11 carbs in a serving of 9 crackers.  There are 0 sugar carbs and 0 dietary carbs.  I chose the cracked pepper flavor.  They had another flavor, but this one sounded better to me.  So how did my sugar do after eating them?  Well...before I ate, my sugar was 88.  1 hour after eating, it was 124.  2 hours after eating it was 98.  These readings are after eating 2 cups of my tomato soup and 9 crackers.  I added bacon to the soup to add protein so that I am not eating just carbs.  I guess you can say I had my crackers and ate them, too!!  Dinner was really great....tomato soup and crackers!  Excited that I now have found a substitute for regular crackers....which I have not eaten since September when I gave up all processed foods!  I think these would be great with cheese, also.  They have a great texture and wonderful flavor.  They are VERY thin but taste great!
