Cradoc’s Vegan Crackers from Wales (no palm oil)
Cradoc’s Beetroot and Garlic Crackers
Cradoc’s Savoury Crackers (Wales) are made in the Brecon Brecons, using flours from a local co-operatives and spices from a community store. Owned by a local baker-lady (and chief Cracker Muncher!).
Avoid crackers (especially with seeds) for young children and choking risk (also avoid spreading blue cheese (dairy or not) if pregnant/nursing or for weak immune systems). Read more on food safety for people and pets (keep away from pets due to garlic, onion, salt etc).
Don’t feed leftover crackers (or any crusty bread) to garden birds or wildlife due to choking hazards (most also contain salt and fat that smears on feathers, affecting weatherproofing & insulation).
Recycle packaging at supermarket bag bins, if your kerbside does not recycle.
Cradoc’s Spinach and Celery Seed Crackers
We are always being told about ‘local food miles’. Well, palm oil is not local at all. It’s grown in Indonesia, and then shipped (by air) thousands of miles, creating a huge carbon footprint. For an ingredient only used, because it gives more profits to big food brands.
The vegan range includes:
- Salted Sourdough (made with Pembrokeshire rapeseed oil)
- Sea Salted
- Simple Oats
- Pear and Earl Grey (with bergamot oil)
- Chilli Ginger Garlic (every dad’s favourite!)
- Wholemeal Wheat, Flax & Chia Seed (for omega 3s)
- Mexican Chilli Bean
- Chilli Ginger Garlic (every dad’s favourite!)
Break Free from Palm Oil (to save orangutans)
There is a lot of nonsense talked about palm oil. Greenpeace says the term’ sustainable palm oil’ is as useful as a chocolate teapot. It’s just a self-policed term used by industry, to greenwash the public. The only term to trust would be ‘certified organic’. But there is not enough land on earth to provide this, with the amount of palm oil used by food brands.
Some plantations carrying the ‘Round Table on Responsible Palm Oil’ logo’ have been found to have burned forests to the ground, with orangutans and their babies inside them (some orangutan mothers have even been shot and burned, while trying to protect their babies).
