Low Salt Crackers

[Ericabear]

Hi, I find shopping for low salt snacks is a bit of a nightmare and my hubby craves a lot of foods that are "off my list"! Today we have found Ryvita Fruit Crunch ..... They have made it to my shopping list and hubby is over the moon. Am not saying these will suit everyone and their own dietary requirements, but they may be one to look out for as an option.Liz 🙂

I found that the snacks my kids had as toddlers were quite low salt, so if you can get your husband over the idea of eating toddler food, you might find some fun snacks.

He watches cartoons, so probably happy with toddler snacks! 😂 Thank you, will certainly check it out, appreciate your reply.

I have been using either unsalted, or low-salted, rice crackers.

Hi,

My absolute favourite snack - so good I have to ration myself to one a day!

I’ll check those out. Thank you. Nice to have a tip as do all the research and get stuck in a rut with things you know are ok for you for speed!

Likewise, I have been finding it difficult. Mazzo crackers have no salt - they are dull but a good base for a snack with a topping.. If he likes cheese, swiss cheeses are lowest in salt, they have very little. I love them too! (Cheese-o-holic!), Keep an eye out on packaging for salt content. I have found sauces, even marmite with low salt. The child snacks are a good idea and just be careful with how much you add to food. Lemon juice is a good substitute in lots of cooking. Remember he does need SOME salt daily, I made the mistake of overdoing it and got a lot of cramp.Find the right balance.

All the best

Kallo veggie cakes, caramelised onion flavour are my hubbies favourite, he loved his crisps and theses are very savoury and have filled the gap. 0.1g per cake. Thanks for the tip about ryvita, will put on shopping list x

[Ericabear in reply to Oldbits]

Ooh, thank you, will have to try those. He misses his crisps, but has Smiths Salt and shake ..... Less the salt, but very tasteless. Thanks for the info 🙂

Instead of the salt, try a pinch of smoked paprika.

Oooh , good tip, thank you! Does he like plain popcorn? It's a bit bland but I find it is quite good when watching a film etc.

[Ericabear in reply to catmum2]

Thank you, good shout! Another one to try 😊.

Kallo high protein lentil cakes, no salt. Just a fab savoury taste & great with a slice of cheese !
