A Teeny Snack Called ScracK Griss
I know, I know. It's been awhile. I've been a busy bee but I have managed to fit in some food shopping along the way. Recently I was in my favorite Italian store in the Chelsea Market, buonItalia, where I always pick up canned cherry tomatoes and anchovies. While hunting for other items of sheer deliciousness, I found these bags of ScracK Griss (yes, the "K" is upper case). "A light & savory Italian snack" it states on the front of the bag along with photos of yummy-looking loaves of garlic and tomato and basil-laden breads. Since I was planning on making sauce that night I thought I'd take a chance on these as a possible accompaniment. After all, they were reasonably priced ($1.95) and sounded interesting, and who doesn't love garlic bread? I splurged and picked up two bags: Aglio e Prezzemolo (garlic and parsley), and Pomodoro e Basilico (tomato and basil). When it finally came time to sample the snacks, I was struck by how small they are (they're about the size of a loaf of bread that Barbie might bake). But more importantly, they taste delicious. I think they make a better bar snack than a side to a dish of pasta with sauce but I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised at how tasty these little crackers are. ScracK Griss, you rocK!

Mmmmmm, garlic :)
mmmmh, I just discovered these here.
So very yummy!! :]
Ze zaten in mijn kerstpakket.
Ze zijn inderdaad heerlijk, maar ik kan niet ontdekken,waar ik ze in een winkel in nederland kan kopen. Wel via internetwinkels, maar dan komt er weer €. 6,95 verzendkosten bij. Dus waar in welke winkel. Vr.gr. Rob.
