I tried these a couple of years ago. I liked the flavor, and getting them hot from the oven. But man, I just couldn't eat some of 'em, they were SO salty. I don't normally mind eating salty stuff, but this was over the top for me. Anyone else having...

Hmmm... my husband & I both like them. Maybe the sodium content has been worked out? I don't cook w salt & neither of us has complained about them being too salty....

I tried them twice and the yoke cooked hard in less than a minute and I have to admit I just gave up on it. I poked a hole in the yoke with a toothpick and it still popped. Perhaps I needed to power down the microwave but never bother to do that. I have a friend that uses hers a lot, but I really didn't have good luck with it. I'm not complaining - the price is right and it's probably my fault.

Not really. It was my mistake to order them in summer. Unfortunately, they were left in my (black) mailbox for several hours (until I returned from work) and they were all stuck together. I emailed the company and they credited my account for the full amount (incl S&H;)--they were prompt and polite. I have since used chips from this supplier (muffins & cookies) and do love the the flavor and texture. DO BUY THEM, but in cooler months!

No I did not find it tasted salty whatsoever. If you are using this as a meal replacement, you need a source of sodium as that is necessary for your body's chemistry. If you have unique health needs (like congestive heart failure) and need a low sodium product, this may not be for you.

No clue but they are overly salty had to throw them out. It was more than I could handle and I love salty stuff.

It tastes awful. I gave mine away. I put every kind of flavor I could think of to make it better. Nothing helped. Yuck!

That was just the opposite of my experiences. Mine were constantly hard (undercooked) no matter how long I cooked them, even tried soaking them overnight still no success, so it stays in back of my cabinet and took out my old pressure cooker and gone back to my old ways!!!

I actually make them from scratch. Rather "piddley" but worth the effort. There is no comparison. We did try Krusteaz and the texture was fine, but the taste didn't compare to scratch. Maybe adding extra vanilla would help. :)

Susan: I purchased the 12 boxes of cake/cookie mix from Amazon and discovered they taste nothing like gingerbread! They taste more like nothing! I have baked both cookies and cake with the packages and am slowly using them up, although I probably should have tossed the 12 boxes in the trash! Better Crocker went crackers on this one! Stick with Duncan Hines or Pillsbury---or make your own gingerbread from scratch. There should be a warning on each box: 'Proceed at your own risk!'

I LOVE the old raspberry- the 'new and improved' flavor is awful. It is way too sweet and now has a sweetner wang to it I camnot stand. I think their test market must have been a bunch of 12 year olds. I have given it to several friends to try and no one so far has liked it. Please write to Alacer to tell them how you feel!

I have no idea, but when I read the question, I just had to go grab one from the dish in the living room...whatever the % is, they are delicious!

They were bought out by Nabisco who proceeded to ruin and cheapen the ingrediants. They at first tried under the Nabisco label and no one bought them so they went to the "pretend" box of Oval Farm and still put the cheap crackers in them. I agree...;.they are aweful. Whole foods has a cracker that is a stoned wheat that you might like as a second best to the old stoned wheat thins. Nabisco needs to get their act together....I don't like even buying any Nabisco products lately because of the concern they probably are using cheap contents in other things as well :(

I just received my cashews, and they are rancid. I have had raw cashews before and they smell nothing like this. I thought maybe it was just an odd smell, and I ground them and used them in a recipe (as I have in the past with other raw cashews) and it made us all horribly sick. Do not eat them. I have tried contacting Amazon but have not heard anything yet.

Those are quite a new dish to me.Never tried them. If you can send me the recipie I would happily try it out :)

Perhaps it depends on which flavor you choose. I have not experienced such problems but I only eat the BBQ flavor. It does seem like the expiration date on these packages is EXTREMELY long.

I'm guessing longevity of product? I've tried making these on my own, but have yet to repeat the quality. There's lots of DIY recipes out there. Until I can make them on my own, they beat 75% of the garbage that other companies offer as "snacks".
