Fine Ground Sea Salt Almond Flour Crackers — OKAY
Munch or Dump rates Fine Ground Sea Salt Almond Flour Crackers by Fine Ground OKAY — score 60/90.
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-food base of almonds and seeds, providing protein, healthy fats, fiber, and antioxidants.
- TAPIOCA STARCH (moderate) — Refined starch, pure fast carbohydrate with no fiber, protein, or micronutrients; spikes blood sugar
- Cassava (moderate) — Refined grain-free starch flour; bulks out the cracker and lowers the overall nutrient density.
- organic sunflower oil (moderate) — Refined seed oil; fine in small amounts but high in omega-6 and calorie-dense.
- Sea Salt (moderate) — Seasoning; contributes to sodium intake.
- Organic Onion (safe) — Whole-food flavoring, negligible nutritional impact.
- organic garlic (safe) — Whole-food flavoring, negligible nutritional impact.
- Rosemary Extract (safe) — A natural antioxidant used to keep the oils fresh instead of synthetic preservatives like BHT or TBHQ. A good sign.
