WHAT: Pumpkin & Spice Triscuits
STATS: A serving of six crackers contains 120 calories and 3.5 fat, 20 carbohydrate, 3 fiber, 1 sugar and 3 protein grams. Visit triscuit.com.
THE SKINNY: A couple of weeks ago, we offered our pumpkin picks for this season (belVita Pumpkin Spice Breakfast Biscuits, Fiber One Pumpkin Bar, KIND Caramel Almond Pumpkin Spice bar, Pumpkin Spice Cheerios and Special K Pumpkin Spice Pastry Crisps).
Our harvest runneth over. Here's another: Pumpkin & Spice Triscuits.
We love that they're true to sturdy Triscuit form. And that the salty/sweet crackers are subtle with the autumn spice; they don't aspire to taste like candles.
Tasty out of the box (but be careful, a serving of six mere crackers can disappear quickly), they'd surely be terrific (and more caloric) with a smear of brown-sugar-and-cinnamon or honey-pecan cream cheese.
