Schär's saltí are my favourite alternative to ritz crackers! I should try to see if I can find any around here, I used to pick them up in Sweden (back when I lived in Copenhagen and Sweden was just a 20 minute train ride away, I'm in London now) and would grab 2 bags to last me a couple of months. an open bag will still keep well if sealed up tight. my family used to make tuna salad and shrimp-egg salad and spread it on ritz crackers and it's still a favourite snack, so I was sad to not be able to do that anymore - until I found these!

of their sweet snacks I like the melt it's like a gluten free kinder bueno so I can happily nom on these. they're a bit pricey but I'll grab one if I'm in Waitrose anyway to pick up some gluten free stuff I can't find elsewhere, as a treat.

I couldn't find this on the UK website so now I'm sad, but in Copenhagen I used to get paniermehl (breadcrumbs) for when I wanted to make fried fish in breadcumbs - almost the only thing I use breadcrumbs for! I haven't cooked a lot of fish here in the UK because I find it difficult to source without paying out my arse for it. suppose if I ever do I'll have to make my own breadcrumbs...

I haven't tried any of schär's readymade bread, there's a part of me that's super hesitant to eat bread that's supposed to be shelf stable for as long as schär's breads are. I'm sure they're very good, I just can't make myself try them.

I'll say of the things I've tried from schär the only product I've not been impressed by are their pizza bases. they're just not good. and it frustrates me when restaurants use schär pizza bases for their gluten free pizzas because the pizzas are just never good! and always undercooked too, ugh. so these I avoid like the plague.
