Default Wasa Bread vs. melba toast

Just curious if anybody eats Wasa Bread and if so what do you put on it? I have been putting low fat peanut butter on it, any other ideas, its pretty blan tasting just plain.
I was also wondering would Wasa Bread be better for you then Melba toast? Im guessing yes, but wanted others inputs
thanks alot, hope everyone is doing well

I spread a bit of hummus on Wasa bread and add sliced veggies such as red bell peppers. I also eat Wasa bread with Laughing Cow light cheese.

I don't know anything about Melba toast, but because Wasa is made of whole grains it probably is better for you.

I use Wasa crackers in place of bread with just about any topping that you would put in a sandwich. I did a side-by-side comparison on Nutrition Data and the rye crackers came off as a bit healthier than the melba toast. They were also higher in the "fullness factor" which measures how filling a food is.

What is Wasa bread? Where do you get it? I'd like to try it. I eat laughing cow light cheese with reduced fat wheat thins.

They are crackers made from various grains and are in the cracker/cookie aisle of most grocery stores.

I am going to have to look for those!

I haven't tried them but Philadelphia makes a 94% fat free cream cheese that might be good on them.

I used to make chicken or tuna salads and put it on Wasa bread. You can also put sliced tomatoes/cucumber on it with low-fat cheese. And it's really good with low-fat plain yogurt.
