Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)My grandpa used to tell stories about eating this stuff in his Army days. They called it "hardtack" or just simply "tack". It also seems to be a Swedish staple food. I grew up in Texas so it is kind of hard to find around here, especially the hearty rye kind. One time I went to purchase a few packages of it at the local "gourmet food and liquor" store and the cashier warned me someone had returned it because it was "stale". I told her that they must have been clueless, cause that's how its SUPPOSED to taste. The stopped carrying it soon after. I'll just have to start special-ordering it. It's cheaper here, anyway..
I've tried many other Wasa crispbreads and I always come back to this one. Nothing compares to the hearty rye. It has a very thick, satisfying crunch and a nice, bland rye flavor. I eat it with anything and everything, or even by itself. It's great if you spread butter on it and eat it with soup. Other examples: tuna fish, cheese, lunchmeat, peanut butter, ice cream, salsa verde, chocolate pudding, Wolf chili, banana slices, SPAM, etc. Be creative.
It NEVER GOES STALE, so don't worry too much about sealing up the package. I believe that's a design principle in all hardtacks (see wikipedia). In my opinion, it only gets better with age. In reality, there is negligible difference between the freshly opened package and the months-old package. Same crunch, same flavor. It's like bread, but without the possibility of mold. Oh, it's also healthy and stuff. Lots of fiber.
I highly recommend the hearty rye. Buy a few cases now to prepare for Y2012 :)
