About the Brand

Carr's, maker of the classic Carr's Table Water Crackers, is a member of the Kellogg Company family of brands.

About Kellogg
In the late 1800s at the Battle Creek Sanatorium, a combination hospital and health spa for the elite and famous, W.K. Kellogg, business manager, and his brother, Dr. John Harvey Kellogg, chief physician, were in the process of cooking some wheat for a type of granola when they were called away. When they returned, the wheat had become stale. They decided to force the tempered grain through the rollers anyway, and surprisingly, the grain did not come out in long sheets of dough. Instead each wheat berry was flattened and came out as a thin flake. This led to the formation of the Battle Creek Toasted Corn Flake Company in 1906, which eventually became Kellogg Company--changing the form of breakfast forever.

The company that makes breakfast and snacks for millions began with only 44 employees. Today, Kellogg employs more than 25,000 people, manufactures in 17 countries, and sells its products in more than 180 countries. Kellogg is the world’s leading producer of cereal and a leading producer of convenience foods, including cookies, crackers, toaster pastries, cereal bars, frozen waffles, and meat alternatives. In addition to Carr's, the company’s brands include Kellogg’s, Keebler, Pop-Tarts, Eggo, Cheez-It, Club, Nutri-Grain, Rice Krispies, All-Bran, Special K, Mini-Wheats, Chips Deluxe, Sandies, Morningstar Farms, Famous Amos, and Kashi.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb Variety of Biscuits in Different Shapes and Textures Perfect for Picnics, September 11, 2006

By	Ed Uyeshima (San Francisco, CA USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

The best news about the availability of Carr's Assorted Biscuits for Cheese on Amazon is that they were delivered to me without damage. I have been a fan of their crackers for years, and the nine types available in this selection do not disappoint. The types are the square Cream Cracker, the thick and circular Digestive, the light Small Table Water, the cookie-like Small Wheatmeal, the heavily textured Oyster Cracker, the large Cornish Wafer, the Oblong Water, the small disc-like Bran Carlton and the traditional Choice Grain.

There isn't a loser in the bunch and you get several of each kind. There are even helpful pictures of recommended toppings on the box, though if you're lazy like me, you'll get a good wedge of brie and smear it on all of them. They are not the most nutritional of appetizers as the recommended portion of three crackers has 80 calories, of which 25 are fat, and 95 mg of sodium. But luckily the individual boxes are relatively small, so binging can be appropriately curbed. They are perfect for a picnic setting where you don't want to fumble around with noisy chips.

5.0 out of 5 stars I Like these!, August 25, 2006

By	Shirley Priscilla Johnson "Author/Reviewer -... (USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

I have to say that I really like this product. Inside your box you will find a nine different biscuits, or crackers as I would call them. I popped one in my mouth when I first opened the box without anything on it and they were fresh and delicious. Although it says, 'for cheese,' don't feel you can't put other things on them. Grab some ham, or have them with your favorite soup. These are some nice biscuits that you will find many uses for and you will enjoy eating. I recommend this product. Very good.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Classic Biscuit Assortment, August 24, 2006

By	Alejandra Vernon "artist & illustrator" (Long Beach, California) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (COMMUNITY FORUM 04)

Carr's states on the box that these biscuits are "The Perfect Complement to Cheese," but of course, they're good for so much more...from peanut butter and jelly on the Bran Carlton biscuit, to caviar on the Small Table Water biscuit! The box also has some nice cheese serving suggestions, like cucumber slice, sour cream, and shrimp on the Oyster Cracker.

My favorite is the Digestive biscuit, because I really like the wheatmeal texture and flavor, and also because it reminds me of my English Mum. It was always traditional in her day to wake up to a hot cup of tea and a digestive biscuit, and it certainly is a delightful way to start the day.

Carr's Biscuits are the real deal, made in England, and with no "funny stuff" like EDTA in them. Get a couple of boxes of Carr's Assorted Biscuits for Cheese, some Cheshire, Stilton and Cheddar cheeses, warm up some beer, and make your next party an English pub party!
