Default Favorite Crackers?

Hey everyone!
Yesterday I made the mistake of going to Sam's Club without my pts+ calculator and I bought a huge box of crackers. They turned out to be 4 pts+ per serving, which would be fine and dandy, but I don't like the way they taste. For 4pts it's got to be good.
What are your favorite crackers, how much is a serving and how many pts are they?

Crackers are so hard to find that stick within your points. I love crackers but the journey to find ones that are delicious and point conscious is hard. I live in Canada but I go down to the States to shop at Trader Joes every now and then, and thats where I find the best selection of all kinds of foods. I've recently ran out of them so I don't have the exact kind but they are multigrain and 3 points for a serving of 9 HUGE crackers. Check out them, they have some really great stuff and most of it is low in points.

I love Trader Joe's corn tortilla flat breads. They are long, but taste like a cracker. 3 of them which is 30g (pretty much the same as a serving of crackers) is only 2 points. And they are sugar free. They come in 2 flavors, Salted Sesame and Multi seed, both are fabulous. I dip them in just a touch of Trader Joe's garlic hummus to round it out to a 3 point snack. You could also use a laughing cow wedge.

i LOVE akmak crackers. They're whole grain, have a little bit of protein and fiber in them, all natural, and most importantly really tasty.

oh hm.. im not into weight watchers, but two big crackers are around 40 calories. The serving size on the box is 5 crackers, and for that it's around 110 calories.

This. I just tried them this week, too. I've only had the sour cream & onion kind but I think I saw a sea salt (?) variety in the store, too. 27 chips = 3 PP.

I love Wasa Multi-Grain Crispbread when I'm craving some crunch. One slice is 1 point and they are rather large. Topped with light swiss laughing cow and mango salsa and I'm in post-workout heaven!

I have a pack of wasa crackers and they look and taste like corrugated cardboard. I think I have a light variety and 2 crackers are 1 PP. Maybe I will try a different type because my sister swears by them!

As for crispbread I can recommend Finn Crisps. Not sure about the points (not many I believe) but they taste awesome!

Im going to just try to stay away from crackers. Its seems like they are evil baked goodness that i just cant do. for 3 or 4 points i think there are other things id love more plus... crackers suck unless they are paired with cheese and omg... cheese is even more evil than the crackers. So thats a double evil that is far too many points for me to fathom.

However... pita's ripped up and plopped into the oven kinda make a nice crispy crackery type thing. I am sure they are less?

Not doing WW, so I don't know points, but Trader Joe's also has these Raisin Rosemary crackers that are only 90 cals for an ounce serving (pretty standard size serving for crackers)...fewer calories than most crackers I've found. It's a slightly bizarre combo of flavors, but I think they're really yummy
