The Perfect Backpacking Kracker

Dr. Kracker's crackers are hands-down our favorite for backpacking! They're the only cracker we've found that really does stand up to the trials of being carried along in a backpack for days at a time without breaking into bits. This is one tough cracker! We've tried many, many other types of crackers and none make the grade - for this, we give Dr. Kracker top marks.

In addition to their sturdy nature, Dr. Kracker's crackers are delicious! They offer fantastic ingredients (simple and organic) and great flavor combinations. The available flavors include:
The crackers come in large 'flatbread' crackers and regular-sized 'snacker' crackers. We carry the snacker crackers as we find them much easier to carry along. They come in chip bags which give them a nice air-cushion to help prevent any possible breakage.

Pair them with nut butters (peanut, almond, etc.), salami, summer sausage, tuna, shelf-stable cheese, hummus, bean dips.... the possibilities are endless!

August Features

Splendore Sliced Pepperoni

Pepperoni is often only thought of when a pizza is on the menu but there are plenty of ways to use this shelf-stable meat. Perfect for the backcountry, this compact package contains 17 slices of pepperoni - enough for a couple of wraps, or my favorite, a
pepperoni quesadilla. Just layer slices of pepperoni between two tortillas along with a generous helping of freeze-dried cheese and enjoy a melty treat in the backwoods!


Wisconsin Swiss Cheese


These little triangles of shelf-stable cheese are perfect for backcountry trips. Use just as you would use fresh cheese without worrying about spoilage or mold. Slice and use on wraps, melt into pasta or just eat as a quick snack with crackers.


Quick Tofu Mix

Enjoy fresh tofu without the weight. This mix cooks up in just 5 minutes and cools into real tofu in just 25 minutes. Cook it up in a stir-fry or enjoy on its own for a protein packed dish!



Dehydrated Vegetable Blend with Tomatoes

A tasty vegetable medley without spending any time with your dehydrator! Perfect in soups, stir-fry on just about any menu where a variety of vegetables is needed.
