My Thoughts:
I was recently sent an assortment of Melba Toast crackers, which included the following flavors: Sesame, Rosemary and Olive Oil, Sourdough, Classic, Whole Grain and Wheat. Click here to learn more about each of these flavors and their nutritional facts and ingredients.

After having had a chance to sample each of the above flavors, both my husband and I agree that our favorite flavors are the sesame and rosemary and olive oil toasts. You can eat these healthy snacks right out of the box, or use with dips, hummus and homemade bruschetta. We found that using the rosemary and olive oil toasts with bruschetta or with a caprese salad, it really enhanced the cracker.

In addition to the Melba Toast crackers, I was also sent a sampling of Old London's Melba Snacks in the following flavors: Whole Grain and Sea Salt. This past weekend when my parents came down to help us with last minute cleaning and prepping for our new arrival coming this week, we snacked on the whole grain crackers with guacamole. Boy, did it taste good. It was a nice switch up from using tortilla chips, and the crunch of the whole wheat cracker really went well with the homemade guacamole I had made.

With Thanksgiving right around the corner, why not consider swapping out tortilla chips and salty potato chips or other snack treats with a sampling of Old London Melba Snack and Toast crackers for your dips and snacking needs, for a healthy alternative.

The Old London Story
clip_image012
It was 1897 when, concerned about her stylish figure, the talented opera singer Miss Nellie Melba sent the famed Parisian chef Auguste Escoffier back to the kitchen. Her complaint was that her bread was much too thick. Escoffier returned to Ms. Melba’s table with a thinly sliced piece of toasted bread, and promptly named it Melba toast in her honor. Nellie Melba’s name would go on forever, just like she always said it would.

The first Melba oven was built in 1932, leading to the development of the Melba Round. These improvements allowed Old London to introduce the first restaurant packs to the public, gaining widespread approval. Today Old London carries over 20 flavors of authentic, original, crunchy taste sensations in Rounds and Toasts.

Make Old London part of your active, healthy lifestyle. Melba’s satisfying, crisp bite makes it a light bread replacement for a quick lunch or easy snack. Try all the Old London products, a brand you can trust for a great flavor and outstanding quality. Look for the Old London Specialty Cracker Section in your local grocery store and find more than just Melba!!

Disclosure: I was sent samples in order to write up an honest review. The views above are mine and mine alone.
