Having grown up with Triscuit as an occasional treat, I was delighted, not to mention a bit nervous, when Kashi put out their own version of the "woven" whole grain cracker. Previous attempts have, in my opinion, missed the boat, and Kashi, for whatever reason, has been putting the occasional odd ingredient in some of their products making them inedible to certain parts of the population. Kashi Heart To Heart Whole Grain Crackers Original are one of their sure hits. There is no dairy included in these crackers where there is in some of Kashi's other crackers.
The texture is perfect lending the cracker an excellent bite as well as denseness that will hold up to whatever you want to put on them--I haven't tried it yet but I suspect that they will even hold a bit of sauce. Little pizzas!
The taste is close to Triscuit but not the same. If I were to have a side-by-side taste-testing of the two crackers, the Triscuit would fail for two reasons: The Kashi cracker is a bit thicker and provides a more satisfying crunch. Additionally, the Kashi cracker is far less salty than the Triscuit. I have not compared the sodium counts here, just the flavor.
All in all, I highly recommend Kashi Heart-to-Heart Whole Grain Crackers for flavor, crunch and this: when that emotional need to ar#@!gh comes, these crackers make a lovely foil to keep you from doing just that. They are also a great munch.
We love these crackers. They taste great, but they aren't too salty or oily, like a healthier version of Triscuits. They go really well with sliced cheddar cheese and our kids love them.
Buy Kashi Heart to Heart Whole Grain Crackers, 8-Ounce (Pack of 5) Now
Purchased these for a nice snack while sitting at work. Most office snack-bars and vending machines have candy and chips which taste great, but aren't exactly great for you. These little crackers are just as tasty and are healthier than what the vending machine has to offer. Also, great at parties with meats and cheeses. And for those that are worried the garlic flavor is not overpowering, but you definitely know it is there. Overall a great buy and in the 5-pack option, not a bad deal either.

We have bought a lot of Kashi Heart to Heart crackers since DH had a heart attack last year, but we've never tried the originals. I didn't realize it, but these are the woven wheat type of cracker like Triscuits, not crackers like the other ones we've been buying. They are not as salty as Triscuits (or they couldn't claim to be heart-healthy), but if you make heart-healthy spreads to put on them using flavorful salt substitutes, you won't miss the salt. They can be used for everything you'd use Triscuits for. I'm really glad these are available.

I've got to admit that I'm not too crazy about the taste of the crackers alone but I recognize their superior quality and health-given benefits. So dip them in my healthy soups and sip my allotted red wine. They're greeeeeeat! :)
