Fine Ground Sea Salt Almond Flour Crackers — OKAY
Munch or Dump rates Fine Ground Sea Salt Almond Flour Crackers by Fine Ground OKAY — score 62/90.
A genuinely clean, short ingredient list built on almonds and seeds, but two refined starches (tapioca and cassava) sit right behind the nuts and water down the protein and fiber it advertises.
Why this verdict
- Clean, short list: no artificial colors, flavors, emulsifiers, or added sugar
- Real almonds, sunflower and flax seeds lead the ingredients
- But tapioca starch and cassava (refined starches) sit at #2 and #3, diluting the nuts
- Protein and fiber are modest (~2-3g and ~1-2g per serving) despite the 'nutrition-packed' framing
Ingredients (8)
- Nut and seed flour blend (almonds, sunflower seeds, flax seeds) (safe) — Whole nuts and seeds provide protein, healthy fats, fiber, and vitamin E.
- TAPIOCA STARCH (moderate) — Refined starch used for binding and chew, nutritionally empty.
- Cassava (moderate) — The primary ingredient, a refined starchy root that gives the chip its body; nutritionally similar to other starch chips.
- organic sunflower oil (moderate) — Coating oil; adds fat and calories. Organic and unrefined-leaning but still the fat driver.
- Sea Salt (moderate) — Sodium source; no nutritional edge over regular salt.
- Organic Onion (safe) — Whole vegetable, no processing concerns.
- organic garlic (safe) — Whole aromatic.
- Rosemary Extract (safe) — Natural antioxidant used to keep the oil fresh.
