When did people start eating crackers and what kind did you try? I need something to put my laughing cow cheese or hummus on. I don't want to push boundaries though, I'm only 4 weeks out

I started eating them like 3 months out! 4 Weeks may be a little soon! But when your ready reduced fat wheat thins or triscuits worked for me just chew them really really good! Best of luck

I started eating them last week @ 5 weeks out.

What kind did you try? Triscuits and wheat thins seem too tough. I was thinking something soft and bland like ritz...

Guys...crackers arent a good choice. Period.

Premium pouch space should be reserved for protein!!! Especially only weeks out!!!

Does anyone have any non-cracker or carb alternatives for cheese spread/hummus? Not allowed raw veggies yet.

Try a spoon! Lol, I can lick hummus right from a spoon...

Dip your cold cuts in it.

I have 1 saltine every morning to try to soak up the acid in my pouch and get it out! I've been doing that since about week 3. Like another poster said- might be early for a heavy cracker. Just be careful with eating them... I've heard it's easy to eat many!

Thanks y'all. I appreciate the input. I've been dunking provolone cheese in hummus (which is awesome!) so maybe I'll try some cold cuts with the laughing cow cheese. I don't want to overdue anything but wasn't sure if people were occasionally eating a few (!) crackers without incident.

Ceackers and many other starch products dissolve in your mouth so don't really impact your stomach. This is why we can eat so many chips.absorption starts in your mouth, so I have been told. Chew em 35 times and there is nothing left to swallow.

I bought mini saltine crackers. They go down fine. I started on week 3!

I eat cracker kleebler brand regular kind.

I tried kashi fire roasted veggie. And the kashi salsa pita chips.
