What is this food?
Salted round crackers (crackers, salted). They’re a crunchy, salty snack that mainly provides carbohydrates.
Why it matters to health
Per 100 g, this food is energy-dense (about 505 kcal) and high in fat (24.7 g), including saturated fat (4.73 g). It also has a lot of carbohydrates (63.4 g) with a small amount of fiber (2.9 g) and low sugar (1.3 g). The biggest caution is sodium (962 mg), which can add up quickly if you snack often. On the plus side, crackers can be a convenient “carb booster” for busy days, but because they’re salty and calorie-heavy, they’re best kept to small portions so they don’t crowd out more nutrient-rich foods in your 3 full meals plus 1–2 snacks a day.
Healthier tips
- Keep portions small: try 1 small handful or about 20–30 g per snack, then pair with something filling like fruit or yogurt.
- Balance your snack: add protein (egg, fish, chicken, or yogurt) and fiber (banana, apple, carrots, or cucumber) to help you feel satisfied.
- Watch sodium: if you eat salted crackers, go lighter on other salty items that day (instant noodles, chips, processed viands).
- Choose better options when available: look for crackers that are lower in sodium or made with whole grains.
- Drink water: it helps with the salty taste and supports overall hydration.
