very true. but his question wasnt about what could be eaten that is better for you. we all know there is ALWAYS something better.Originally Posted by BodyBuild03
to answer your question...triscuits. only like 4 ingredients. just eat a serving's worth though (6-7 crackers). i get the low sodium brand if i need it as a road trip snack or something and dont have other sources fo carbs around.[url]http://www.fitday.com/WebFit/PublicJournals.html?Owner=kevdoggincy[/url]

I went to check their look-up their ingredients, but Nabisco has a stupid ass website for wheat thins, so I decided not to bother.
But I am almost 100% sure both of those have partially-hydrogenated oils in them, so stay away. You can check the ingredients to make sure."The strong do not simply survive...the strong prosper and flourish."

It just so happens that I have a box right here. I have the reduced fat triscuits.
1 serving about 7 crackers
120 cals
3g fat, 1.5 poly, .5 mono
160mg sodium
21g carb, 3 fiber
3g protein
ingredients: Whole Wheat, Soybean oil, Salt, Monoglycerides
I eat a serving of these with tuna. it may not be as good as rice or oats but sometimes it's all I have.
