One day down - no Triscuits:) The SIX boxes from my pantry (there was a sale) are now living in the back of the car. Out of sight but not yet out of mind. And no SB bars either. Funny how slowly the day passed while I thought about what I was NOT eating.

Ihave never heard of Ryvita either and will look for that and the Woven Wheats. I can't eat Melba Toast either! Last year on SB I ate both and that was worse because then I went from one to the other. Clearly I am a cracker snacker.

The thing is that when I am eating clean, Triscuits taste really great to me, not just salty but almost sweet. When I am eating unhealthy, I think they are like straw and never touch them!

Add me to the "Triscuits are a problem food" group also. I also agree that the flavored ones are especially addicting. Nuts are also another problem food for me even though they're on plan. With me, it doesn't matter if I eat them alone or with cheese or hummus, it doesn't take much for me to stop counting them and continue to eat two or three servings.

I wonder why Triscuits in particular, cause problems for MANY of us? Do the other varieties have MSG as well? Could it possibly be the salt in the crackers?

I think I'm going to stop buying them also...

Hey Karen! I am also someone who cannot have triscuits. They are a real trigger food for me. I could eat the whole box. So I just can't have them in the house. Who knows why certain foods trigger us? There are many foods I love that I don't overeat - but some foods, like triscuits, are just more difficult.

You have been so strong for so many months and even now you are learning about why you do what you do. It is all a learning processes. You will do ok, but you just probably can't have triscuits in the house.

All the flavored triscuits seem to have MSG, among other things!

Thanks for all your input! I appreciate the support and it is nice to know I am not alone. Funny how many of us have trouble with those crackers! I am going to buy some others to try today, but think a few more days cracker-free will be good for me:)
