Review of Van's Gluten-Free Crackers (Lots of Everything)

Van's -- Gluten-Free Crackers (Lots of Everything) (vegan)
Overall Rating: 4/5
Summary: delish thin, flavour-packed crackers. Very authentic everything bagel flavour...like actually eating a super crunchy everything bagel (my favourite bagel flavour). The ingredients are wholesome and the nutritional profile is quite good. What a great snack...I'd definitely buy this again and do highly recommend it!
