Nabisco

What happened to the fat-free square saltines? My husband and I have a cholesterol problem and have eaten these for years. We eat a lot of crackers. Also the round shape is awful. Have containers that are square! If it's not broken, why fix it? I will buy other brands.

What happened to regular Saltines? These round ones are horrible. They are tasteless and get stale quickly. Our nightly snack of a row of Saltines and peanut butter has been ruined. Whoever got this brilliant idea should be fired. Bring back the old standbys. We will not be purchasing any of these round pieces of cardboard.

I learned today from my 92-year old mother in MA that the Saltines are going round? As you may imagine, we've been eating Saltines for a long time. A nice square of cheese fits just right. It's the perfect accompaniment to a bowl of hot Campbell's tomato soup (made with milk, not diluted with water), and even though you might think it's gross, a little bit of pickled herring fits just right, too. Round doesn't cut it. Ritz is round. Saltines are square. End of story.

Why did you change the shape, box size, and packing method? When I saw the new Premium Saltines in the store, I refused to buy them. I will buy the store brand from now on, unless you bring back the old Saltines.

Please do not change the premium saltines from square, six individually stacked rows of crackers to the round ones being marketed in the Pioneer Valley of Western Massachusetts. They go stale quickly and there is something just wrong with the classic, square, pop in your mouth saltine. I buy this brand on principle, instead of going cheaper and getting the generic ones.

Nabisco Crackers - Nothing happened, except your new crackers with the sea salt were wonderful. And yesterday after waiting at Brookshires for two days to receive the crackers I wanted, your delivery man said you had discontinued the crackers I loved. The box was colored around the edge, kind of like tan or peach colored. I don't know what they were called. I think they had sea salt on the top. They were wonderful and I was buying about three boxes a week. Now I understand you discontinued them. You have made a bad mistake in my opinion.

This Nabisco Snackwells Peanut Butter snack product is dangerous to a person's dental health. Due to it containing hard objects, I lost a portion of a tooth while eating what I thought to be a healthful snack. My wife encountered an object out of the same box which appeared to be an unpopped corn grain! I always considered Nabisco products to be top notch, not anymore.

The traditional saltines got me through pregnancy and all the years since. They are a standard fixture in my kitchen, but the changes have made them unusable for me. Please return to the original formula, texture and packaging. I will not purchase your products in the future if they are to remain this miserable pretender.

I went to a birthday party and picked up the large Ritz Crackers for a dip. When the host put the crackers in a dish with the dip, they were nothing but crumbs, very embarrassing. For five dollars a box, I would think they would be better protected. Please explain without putting blame somewhere else, as the ultimate responsibility is Nabisco's.

Why round? The last package of square Premium Saltines I purchased was all written in Spanish. I have nothing against speakers of that language, but this isn't Texas or New Mexico and the most frequently spoken language of this country is still English, so why not go with the standard? The next time I went to buy them, our family's favorite crackers since the 1940's and mine since 1952, they had been replaced by round only. Although big business has been changing the rules to rip off the American customer in recent years, I haven't bought into it. I just stop buying the product. Period.

I have nothing but contempt for companies that deliberately cheat the public in order to increase their profits and my family and I refuse to buy from companies that do that. We don't buy products that used to come in larger weights, but have been replaced with lower weights in packages that deceptively look like the older packages.

We are all dropping Premium Saltines from our grocery lists and many of us have stopped buying several Kraft and Nabisco products already. However, if the normal standard Premium Saltines come back, I might consider buying them again. That means same size, taste, packaging, weight per dollar, etc. We can all live without processed foods anyway.

Round Saltine Crackers - These crackers were square for, what, eighty years? Why change that now? Kraft literally cut corners on this one. Flavor: bland; Texture: mealy; Appearance: boring. Terrible product. Stop laying off workers and cutting corners on your ingredients and go back to making a great, time-tested cracker!

I bought a bag of these because they were the right size for "S'Mores Bites". I was very annoyed to discover that they are cinnamon flavored. Here are all the words on the front of the package: reclosable snak-saks Nabisco HoneyMaid Grahams Nickelodeon Spongebob Squarepants nt. wt. 8 oz (226g). Do you see the word 'cinnamon' anywhere there? I don't have time now to go back to the store to get plain Graham crackers. I will need to find a different recipe and revise my serving plan. Please refund my $3.59 and revise your packaging! Thank you.

I purchased Graham crackers and brought a sleeve in to work. I was shocked to find they tasted weird and smelled like paint thinner! I thought I was imagining it and made my co-workers try them and they all agreed that it was horrible. What is going on at these factories?!

Recently, I purchased reluctantly a box of the "new" round Saltine from Stop and Shop. They were tasteless and the texture is not the same. I threw away a full carton. I am so disappointed that I am boycotting Nabisco and Kraft Foods. Also, I will call your Consumer Hot Line 1-800-622-4726 next week during business hours to voice my dissatisfaction. The "decision makers" at the Company should rethink their plan and go back to providing a quality popular product. When I complained to the Groceries Manager at my supermarket, he stated he had received several other complaints.

I bought a box of Wheat Thins Original and a large portion of them are very burnt. I can offer to send the package in to show you.

I had been looking for saltines for several weeks now and was just informed by a stock clerk that the saltine packaging and design has changed. I purchased a box and was extremely dissatisfied. Not even the least bit similar to the originals. It tastes like cardboard. I wasted my money and threw the box away. I will change brands and will actually consider not purchasing any Nabisco products in the future. Really disappointed!

How could you do such a thing? Not only do the original Premium Saltines not taste like the crackers that I have lived with for 70 years, they do not resemble the taste at all. Why would you do something so dumb? Don't expect my family to continue using those imitation things! Shame on you.

Premium crackers: We bought 4 boxes of the saltines, and they were terrible - they tasted like soap. We tried taking them back to the store, and they did nothing. They said it wasn't their problem.

My wife came home with a box of stupid round "original" saltines instead of the real originals. The store told her you don't make the squares now. These round things are nowhere near the originals in taste, feel, or anything else. Why did you have to mess up a good thing? Did you get your CEO from Coke? We will not buy any more round things. Maybe Sunshine has more sense.

These new crackers are horrible! They do not hold up in soup like the original square ones. And now the entire bag is open to go stale instead of just opening one sleeve at a time. Take a lesson from "New Coke" and don't mess with tradition. Bring back the original square crackers! Thank you.

I found a large piece of brown substance embedded in a graham cracker when I opened a package of crackers. At first, I thought it was chocolate. But now, I hate to think what it could be. I eat a lot of graham crackers, but will never eat another until Nabisco can guarantee that this product is safe. Nasty graham cracker.

I called Nabisco at 800-622-4726 and talked to Debbie, a very nice lady. You should know that's it's easy to get through on the phone, less than a minute wait. She told me what we've heard elsewhere that the round cracker is a test in NY State and the New England states. Test is expected to end Aug 2012. Nabisco will make a decision then. So we all need to keep complaining! Call the above number and make your feelings known! Your opinion can make a difference! Don't forget to mention the much higher price too! In the meantime, I have found the square crackers at BJ's in the 3 pound box. Perhaps Sam's Club and Costco still sell them too. There are Facebook pages dedicated to the square crackers also. Express yourself on Twitter too! Call that phone number during business hours Mon-Fri. Good luck, people!

I can't believe that the Nabisco Original Premium Crackers are gone. New round ones are awful. Please bring them back. My family's lives are on these. We seriously eat like a box per week. I can't imagine changing brands!

I was down to my last stack of Original Premium Saltine crackers so I put them on my grocery list. Imagine my surprise when I went to the store to pick them up. Original Premium Saltine crackers are no longer the originals. I wonder what corporate decision drove the change. I wish someone there at Nabisco would enlighten me. Pray tell, why would a company break a tradition that is over a hundred years old?

Don't get me wrong. The new cracker is okay but the fact remains. It's not an Original Premium Saltine cracker. I have told some friends and the general response is, "No way. Original Premium Saltine?" They are even more astounded when I tell them about the bulk package, reduced size and dramatic change in texture.

I tell them, "Now, six crackers weigh less than five of the Original Premium Saltine crackers." It remains a question in my mind of how a bunch of corporate executives can come up with the decision to bring down a tradition. This happened in a day where there is too much of this type of product downsizing and enhancements going on. Is nothing sacred? New and improved? I think not.

And on top of it, Nabisco continues to brand its packaging Original Premium Saltine crackers. Shame on you, Kraft/Nabisco. Suffice to say, I will be getting my saltine fix from one of your competitors. As for the one remaining stack of Original Premium Saltine crackers, I am going to preserve them and sell them later on eBay.

I just returned home from my weekly shopping - I am furious! Even when times are tough, I always bought Premium Saltines - no other brand would do! Now, I'm told by Wegmans that Nabisco no longer makes them! You have got to be kidding? I read a comment (complaint) that stated that NY and some New England states were "testing" the "new/round version". Well, let me tell you, I did buy them, and they are awful and I will be returning them for a refund. Until I see the real original saltines back, you can count me as another lost customer - after 67 years! Also note, my mother had a difficult pregnancy with me and literally lived on Premium Saltines and milk for months. Thanks for nothing!

Round Nabisco Saltine Crackers - I cannot find square saltine crackers in my store! Who had the bright idea of changing a perfectly good American classic? Aren't there consumer panels done before such a radical change is made?

These round saltine crackers are terrible. They taste stale and flavorless. Why did you change an age-old, tried, and true product? Just to save a couple of bucks? After reading the other comments from people all across America, I am clearing my shelves of your cookies, crackers, etc. How dare you attempt to cheat the American consumer!

Who did away with my Premium Saltines?! Nabisco hit it out of the park with their recent introduction of Fresh Stacks for Premium Saltines (and Ritz). No longer did we suffer from unfinished sleeves that went stale. Now, Premium Saltines have disappeared completely from store shelves in NH. No more Fresh Stacks, no more Original Premium 4-sleeve, 1-pound boxes. All we can find now are these awful 10.5-ounce boxes of round crackers. Did anyone at Nabisco think to do a taste test on these? They are hideous and taste nothing like Premium Saltines. Even Krispy saltines taste better than the new product. We have another New Coke scenario. Nabisco has lost 2 more customers.

I can't believe what Nabisco is doing. Last week, I went to my local supermarket to buy more saltine crackers, which I have been enjoying for more than 60 years. The only thing available was what was labeled as "Original Premium Saltines." They were round. They were in one bag inside the box and thus started turning not crispy immediately upon opening. They had little or no salt. Here, near the French-speaking Canadian provinces, I don't understand why the box was mostly in Spanish. But here in New England, 90%+ still have English as a first language. And a smaller-sized box? Come on, guys. Enough! Keep the same size, the same flavor, and the same ingredients; and charge more if you think you need to. And we will react accordingly.

I just heard about the round saltine crackers and am mortified. I, too, have been eating Nabisco Premium Saltine Crackers for 50 years and they have been part of a favorite recipe in my family for longer than that. Bring back the original square crackers so I don't have to keep buying the store brand. Whose brilliant idea was this?

I just went to purchase a box of saltines, but I changed my mind because they were round. I have been buying this product for 30 years. They were perfect the way they were. Why the change? Nice going on changing the weight too and costing the same. I will be looking for a new brand.

I purchased some Oreo and Nutter Butter cookies. I had company over. The cookies were purchased on 04/24/2012. We sat down with a cup of cold milk to enjoy some Nutter Butter's and Oreo's, and to our unpleasant surprise, the cookies weren't the same. We all enjoy dunking our cookies, and to our dismay, the cookies don't get soft. They get a little moist on the outside of the cookie, but when you bite down, they are just a crunchy as they were before you dipped them. Also, the Nutter Butter's were round. What the what? They didn't taste the same. The cookie was much lighter than they used to be. This is very upsetting.

Nabisco has changed the package size from 1lb (453g) down to 10.5oz (297g)! Do you think we are all stupid? Less product for more money! For more than 25 years, I have been buying a box of Nabisco Premium Saltine Crackers every week. Now, at the "expense" of the consumers and for the sake of increasing profits, they have changed one of our most favorite snack foods and our "soup side kick".

Less product = same price = must be money hungry investors! They must have a wish to be placed out of the market. I can get around crackers anywhere (and I will)! Their marketing team obviously did not do market research! There are many cracker manufacturers out there. I will be switching as many of my neighbors have also noticed the change for the worse! Nothing but negative thoughts on their little round crackers in smaller packages! Not all consumers are "dumb". I remember when Nabisco stood for quality at a great price!

I am one of probably thousands(!) of people who are extremely disappointed with the elimination of the square saltine. The square saltine is the classic peanut butter mate(!) and also it is the classic cracker of choice for soup where I was raised, crushing them in your hands and dropping them in our soup. They go together like hot fudge & vanilla ice cream. There are some things in life that simply cannot be changed. This is one of them! My mother has used square saltines to make her homemade meatballs for years which is a recipe that has been handed down through two generations. Really, Nabisco are you serious?! Maybe Oreos will go square next! Tragic is all I can say and disappointed! Hopefully there will be enough complaints to bring them back! Big business always forgets the small things that made them big! People never matter; it's always about money.

Are you kidding me? We have eaten your square, saltine crackers for decades and buy at least a box every week. Those new round substitutes are awful! The taste is horrible, the packaging is inadequate, and there are fewer ounces per box, yet the price is the same. I will make every effort not to purchase any Nabisco products until you have shown yourself responsive to the many complaints being received and brought back the old crackers. Come on, people, boycott Nabisco until they listen to our concerns! One of the worst consumer changes in years! Did you even do any market research on this?

I heard the new round Premium Saltine Crackers (original) discussed on a late night talk radio. No one had a good word to say. I decided to try them myself. They are very poor. The flavor is okay, although not as good as before - but the texture! When you have finished chewing, you find your mouth full of a mealy mush. Not pleasant! They are not so bad that I would throw out the rest of the box, but I would never buy them again or advise anyone else to.

There was absolutely no flavoring on these triscuits. I was expecting something different from the original triscuits, so I could eat them plain. I had to eat them with cheese just to get them down. I have had these before, and there was evidence of cracked pepper and olive oil flavor. But this box was like eating regular triscuits. There might have been 7 crackers in the entire box that were enjoyable and had the salty, peppery olive oil flavor that I expected. I have purchased wheat woven crackers in Save A Lot that are just plain-flavored, and they actually have more of a buttery taste and are less than half the price of your product.

You need to stop penny-pinching with the flavor application to your product. I expect a cracked pepper and olive oil triscuit to taste exactly like that. This box was terrible. I may have well just bought the Save A Lot brand, salt and peppered the cracker, and saved half the money. Sorry, if you are offended. I am just being honest.

We don't like the Round crackers. We liked Premium square crackers. I'm begging you all to bring back the squares. In fact, peanut butter on the square crackers is a staple for my three picky eaters. Have to be square and have to be Premium!

Who were the geniuses that decided to test-market the "new" Nabisco Saltines? New yet somehow "original," read the reason-defying oxymoronic proclamation on the box. My question is not born of a sentimental attachment to the original version of Saltine crackers, nor of a deep nostalgic association of Saltines with my youth, although by changing Saltines, Nabisco has offended consumers by initiating a change nearly akin to Coke 2. No, I ask because I'd like to know how this ostensibly talented group of MBA's reached the rarefied heights of six-figure salaried, executive power (complete with lucrative stock options, undoubtedly) wielding an arsenal of such awe inspiring ideas like, "Hey here's an idea: let's take an iconic product, a ubiquitous staple of American pantries and cupboards, whose eponymous brand is virtually a synonym for "cracker", and which has been enormously successful for 50 years and yes, yes that's right, let's change it!"

I know, presuming this person's vocabulary includes "ubiquitous" or "eponymous" is outlandishly far-fetched. Looking for writing talent? I may be reached at **.

Bring back the original "square" saltine! The new "round" ones are awful. They have no taste, they break easily, and the packaging is conducive to breakage. What's wrong with your company?

New shape and packaging of Premium Saltines - I can't believe that saltines now come packaged differently and are round. I had a lot of broken pieces and the crackers do not taste good. They have a different texture and are not as crispy as the old style.

For two years we've been regular purchasers of Premium Saltines, and the last batch we bought here in Round Top, Texas were rancid-tasting although the expiration date was July 2012. Of the last five boxes we bought: both the ones holding two sleeves and the ones holding four sleeves, only one was edible. This is ridiculous. What is going on? I note many unhappy comments on your site and we deserve an explanation and a fix.

Nabisco cannot call their premium saltine crackers original any longer. They changed the formula and they taste awful! I would like the old ones back or will switch brands.

My wife can't get her Saltines anymore. I have told her not to purchase any more Nabisco products, even after you return Saltines. I hope someone hits the unemployment line over this.

Premium Crackers: The new crackers are just awful. Bring back the old ones, or I am off to a new brand.

Regarding the disappearance of square saltines, I too am upset about them missing from the market shelves. I have been raising holy ** on Facebook and wherever possible. A friend in Canada phoned Kraft Canada, worried about losing the crackers in Canada. She was told this is only a test. It is a promotion that will last till August 2012. The "new cracker test" is taking place only in New York state and the New England states. That seems to line up with the addresses posted in these complaints. The square crackers will remain on sale everywhere else. I did find 3-pound boxes of the square saltines at BJ's. I hope this information is helpful, and I hope you will all complain to Kraft about the way they handled this and that we don't want their round crackers ever. Never. Period.

I was extremely disappointed to find my local grocery store no longer stocked the classic 1 lb boxes of Premium saltines. I was even more disappointed to open a supposedly previously unopened box to find a split "seam" on the inner packaging and about 10 already broken crackers. And my greatest disappointment (and also my wife's) was finding that both the texture and the taste of the new, round saltines were vastly inferior to the original version, and instead, all too closely resembled Ritz brand crackers, which we both have despised for decades! Please bring back the old, original version. I absolutely will never again buy the new round version!

We bought 4 boxes of the Premium Saltine Crackers at Meijer's a couple of months ago. I opened one of the 4 inner packages last night - it was unopened before that. It has the worst odor to it - smells sort of like a chemical of some kind, not really turpentine but sort of on that order. They tasted the same. I know it didn't come from the cabinet they were in. I cannot smell anything of the sort anywhere in our house. Awful! You had better find out what is causing that odor. Just 10 minutes ago, I opened a small (airplane) package of your "cheese sandwich" crackers and there was no hint of any obnoxious smell. They were delicious. I'm not writing this because I want some something. I just want you to know that there is something wrong with something with your crackers or their packaging.

What happened to the flavor of Premium Saltine crackers? These round ones taste stale and even though I have only bought Premium Saltines my whole adult life (as they were the only kind my parents bought), I will not be buying these again. My husband, who is 82, said, "I guess we'll have to start buying the store brand from now on." You have lost a long time customer.

I bought a box of Oreos. In the one pack inside the box, there was an Oreo that had no "cream" (white stuff) at all inside it. Therefore, it was not an Oreo at all.

The new round Saltines do not taste the same—they suck. I am horrified. I'll never be able to get the originals. How the heck can you take something so rooted in Americana and just change it? Sadly, I won't be buying them any more. It has been over 50 years that I've been eating them. It's very sad, indeed.

Premium Saltines - In our local Wegmans, they are no longer carrying the pound square boxes, only the round ones in smaller boxes. On your website, you still show the original packaging. Is this no longer available or is your marketing department just trying something new? How do I get the original back on the shelves at Wegmans?

We have been faithful square saltine cracker consumers for 50 years as our parents were before us. We absolutely hate the new round design. They do not taste the same, not as much crunch or flavor. Please bring back the classic design. Saltines were a classic at our house and these new round saltines are not a good substitute.

Nabisco saltine crackers smell odd, serious chemical paint thinner smell. I just opened the package on 3/31/12 and the smell is overpowering. This is second occurrence. Two years back, I bought another type of cracker and it smelled like chemicals. I thought it had to be an anomaly and perhaps crackers stored in warehouse at/near chemical plant or gas/petroleum building. Now I know this is no coincidence. So a quick search confirmed the same experience by others, hence posting this complaint. I will never buy Nabisco products as I can't trust what is used in the product.

I cannot find Hint of Salt Premium Crackers in our local stores. Hint of Salt Premium Crackers by Kraft were a means to lower my salt intake while still enjoying crackers. Now, the only cracker that is close is Unsalted Tops and that is still double the salt content and they taste plain terrible. You have lost me as a customer and also increased the salt intake with all its consequences of customers that substitute your higher salt products in its place.

Last weekend, I opened a box of Wheat Thins Multigrain 5-grain crackers and they were stale. I check to see if there were any tears or defects in the bag and didn't see any. I just threw them away since they were so bad. Tuesday, my wife purchased more at a different grocery store. I opened them today for lunch and they are also stale. I check the best by date and its July 2012. This bag also doesn't seem to have any tears in it. Why are these crackers so stale? I've eaten your crackers for years and have never had this problem before.

What happened was that I can't buy the Hint of salt square saltine crackers. I don't want round saltine crackers. I buy at Market Basket in Keene, N.H. I ended up buying the store brand. Round saltine crackers suck! Sorry, you lost a customer. I have been buying Premium saltine crackers for 55 years.

I simply wish to voice my displeasure with Nabisco's Saltine Crackers. The taste is different like a cheap knock off brand and they are so salty now. We have stopped buying them. Sorry Nabisco, you've lost a customer.

For many years, we have been buying every week your Premium square crackers. The new round crackers' taste is not even close. They are terrible. Until you go back to the original formula, I will not buy them again. I am returning them to my supermarket (Wegmans) and getting a different brand that at least is closer to what you used to have until 2 weeks ago. I am almost certain that when you hear the opinions of other people, you will go back. Question: how did you guys missed it?

I have noticed that all Premium Saltines now come topped with sea salt instead of regular salt. Me and my family have been enjoying them for years, but now, the taste has changed and now I am buying a different brand. My question is, will you be returning to the original recipe? Until then I will no longer buy any kind of Nabisco crackers and I will make sure I will tell my friends and family about the change. Thank you.

I bought a box of cookies Chewy Chips Ahoy like I do every week, but they are hard as rocks, stale. The expiration date is 2012ma19kt32 06:17. Bar code is 66721 01008.

We bought a fresh box of saltines that had an expiration date that we felt they would be fresh for a few months. When we opened them, they tasted stale and almost rancid. We looked at the package closer and noticed crumbs falling out of the bottom of all four packages. It appeared to us that not any of them were sealed completely on one end. Very disappointing as there usually is not a better cracker than a good and fresh saltine.

Keebler Flatbread Crisps Olive Oil Sea Salt made me very sick! Within 5 minutes of eating a serving of these crackers, my chest and throat tightened. This was intensely painful, lasting about 45 minutes. It was obviously a moderate anaphalactic shock episode. Upon reading the ingredients of these crackers, my conclusion is that the TBHQ and BHT preservatives (or maybe the combination of the two in this one product) were the culprit. Advertising olive oil and sea salt is a misleading attempt to promise a healthy product. This should be removed from the store shelves. Shame on Keebler!

Original premium crackers - I purchased a box in Wal-Mart, it didn't look like anything was damaged or dented, but inside the box all four sleeves of crackers were broken into little bits? The stamp on the bottom said 15jun12ah102. How can they be damaged if no outside damage is present?

For almost 100 years, my family has consumed a box or more each week of Nabisco Saltine Crackers. I even remember when they came in a tin box. Some idiot in your company made the stupid decision to change an American icon to a bland, stale tasting cracker with sea salt instead of regular salt. For the first time, we are now purchasing store brand saltine crackers instead of Nabisco. For the first time, you can open the cupboard in my home and not see a box of Nabisco Saltine Crackers.

When you return to the old formula, you will have your old customers back. Until that time, this individual (and millions of others) will be purchasing another brand. A return to the old Nabisco Saltine Cracker would be greatly appreciated. It would also be appreciated if you fired the yuppie idiot that had the final say in making this stupid change. Was he perhaps the one that made the decision to change the Coca Cola formula several years ago? I will be looking for the change.

The box states that there are "about 16 crackers in each stack", there are 8 stacks so I should have about 128 crackers in a box. All 8 of my stacks had 13 crackers in a stack giving me about 104 crackers in a box, that leaves me 24 crackers short or about 2 stacks of 13. Under the bar code on my box was number 04050010163000. I have scanned photos of the stack count and also the bar code if you want them. If this is a mistake because of improper settings of a machine, I believe you should repair this malfunction now! If some of your PR nitwits decided that if you short all the boxes, you will reap a cost saving and higher profit margin, I feel sorry for you. I do not need your lawyer to contact me. I am not looking for reimbursement. I just will not purchase any of your products again. I will give you the benefit of the doubt until I hear from you in 7 days. If I don't hear from you, then I have found out what I was looking for.

I love the taste of Sociables, and have bought them for years. However, every package I open has many broken crackers, and last evening was the last straw! We had some friends over, and I had purchased 2 boxes, so that I would have enough to serve "whole ones" as appetizers with my topping. I would like to suggest that you "sleeve" these crackers (like they do Ritz), so that they would be more likely to hold up during shipping. I don't think I will buy these again. I am so aggravated after this last experience. I do hope that you will consider my suggestion!

My 21-year old son and his friends just opened a box of Teddy Graham's with a September 2012 expiration date and were literally sickened by the metallic taste and smell. At least one of the boys vomited after eating them and a couple have bad headaches. We are still not sure if they need to go to the hospital. We are very disturbed by this. Obviously won't be buying this product again.

I went into my local grocery store tonight and bought 2 boxes of Teddy Grahams because one of my friends had brought some to work, I had a couple and decided I would buy some. I opened them as soon as I got into the car and ate a few. Later tonight, I was reading a book so I poured a small bowl of them. After eating them and getting ready to settle in bed, I noticed an awful taste in my mouth and a headache that did not happen after eating them yesterday. These have been the only thing I have eaten since around 5:30. I am very upset about this because they are not spoiled and I feel as though I paid for a bad product. I will be returning them on Saturday when I go back into town. I also will not be buying anymore of Nabisco's products.

All Nabisco products: We have been loyal to Nabisco since our grandparents used all. After 50+ years of loyalty to your product, we will never buy Nabisco again and will encourage our children and friends not to purchase. What happened to your company?

You have obviously changed the Graham Cracker recipe, and I will not purchase them again. I have been eating them regularly for 40 years. I have baking with them for 20, crusts mostly. You changed the packaging and the recipe as well. I could care less about the packaging. The flavor sucks. No, I am not going to get used to them.

Both my 14-year-old daughter and I are disappointed, upset, irritated, and done. Nabisco is now done in my home. The whole Sam's Club box in the garbage. I don't even trust them enough to give them to birds. I am sure you'll sell plenty of your lousy crackers to the taste-deficient idiots of the world to ignore this post. Kiss it, Nabisco.

Broken cookies - Nabisco Chips Ahoy: 80% of the cookies were either broken in half or in crumbs. It looks like the packaging has changed. This could be why they not whole. This is the third bag I purchased like this. I think I will switch to another brand of cookie.

The product could not be eaten. After opening all 4 packages in the box and then left open, the entire kitchen had the chemical/metallic odor!

Of every box of Nabisco saltine crackers I've purchased recently, approximately 1/4 of the crackers are so badly broken or crumbled that they are unusable and inedible except as cracker crumbs (which I rarely need). This started about 3 months ago and seems to be getting worse. Don't know if it's the formulation or the packaging or a combination of the two, but whatever it may be is leading me to purchase a different brand.

We used to eat your Chips Ahoy, but over the past few months, I have noticed a change. Now, they're so terrible tasting I have stopped buying them. After reading other stories, I have decided I will never buy another Nabisco product. Do not attempt to contact me.

First off, let me say I love all the Nabisco products and I have since I was a kid. Simply delicious! I got a sack of the Nabisco Mini Teddy Grahams Honey and my son started to eat them, he is 2 and a half. We had to inject my son with an EPI pen and paramedics had to take him to the Pediactric ICU at Wake Med. He broke out in a rash around his mouth and lips and eyes and was scratching his face and mouth vigorously. I read the ingredients and it did not look like there was anything that my son might be allergic to in this product so I did not worry about the Teddy Grahams. Just now, I tasted one and it was disgusting and I felt like I had just breathed in paint fumes and wood dust. I opened the bag and they smell like a plywood factory, I know this because I worked in one for a short time.

It has now been about 3 weeks and he still has the rash. We are taking my son to a followup appointment at UNC to see an Allergist in a few days to have our son looked at again and will give the Nabisco Product to the Doctors to have it and my son tested. I am upset because there are many complaints that I found once I did a internet search on this product and yet the product is still being sold. How many kids are eating this dreadful product right now who's parents have not noticed the possible hazards of this product. My throat is still soar and I can't get rid of the awful taste in my mouth from this product. I feel extremely guilty for letting my little boy eat these and getting so sick before I discovered the potential problem.

Let me just say I love your products. I buy them all the time. Always satisfied. So I'm not going to say I'm angry at you or the store; however, I purchased a box of Ritz crackers and didn't open them for a few days. When I did, I pulled out the first pack and all was good. A few days later I pulled the second pack out and pieces of cracker came with it. When I looked in the box there were crumbs all over the bottom. One of the packs looked like it was melted but had two wide gaps and the crackers exposed were crushed. Having been a week or two since I purchased them, I no longer had the receipt so the store would not let me exchange them for a fresh box, not to mention we had eaten some. I will continue to support the Nabisco company.

I opened a box of Nabisco Graham Cracker Crumbs. I was making a crust. Began mixing the product with melted butter and noticed an offensive, highly toxic smell. I went into the other room and asked my husband what that terrible smell was. He didn't know. I continued with my baking, never once thinking the toxic, crazy glue smell could be coming from the graham cracker crumbs. I put the crust in the oven to bake, and the smell went away.

I finished the recipe which was quite involved, adding cheesecake mixture and chocolate chip cookie mixture to make these outrageous bars. When we sat down to desert, we cut into the bars. Oddly the crumbs never formed a crust as they have when I've made this before. Well, the worst thing happened. I took a bite of the desert and nearly choked from the toxic like taste. It tasted like I was eating paint.

I went to the box of graham cracker crumbs I used, opened up the remaining box and sure enough realized the toxic smell was coming from the Nabisco Graham Cracker crumbs! I was so freaked out, I didn't know if I should call poison control or not. Totally freaked out! I'll never buy another Nabisco product ever again!

My in-laws purchased a box of Honey Flavored Teddy Grahams for my two oldest children. My husband poured a small bowl for snack time, for my son. In this case I was glad my son wasted his snack. I decided to eat them, so they did not go to waste, and that is when I discovered the worst tasting cookie I have ever eaten in my life! It had the foulest taste, as if someone were trying to poison me!

We pulled the box from the cabinet, to inspect the date, and the box of goods. The cookies were not outdated, and even if they were, there is no way it would create this awful flavor. Upon opening the box, it had a super glue, toxic-like smell to it. Something has to be wrong with a large batch of these cookies, as I can see we were not the only ones to receive the same awful cookies!

I went to purchase my favorite cracker, probably of my entire life, the Nabisco Triscuit Thin Crisps (only three ingredients), and the box was smaller for the same price as they used to be. I was quite disappointed. I actually did not buy them. I was hoping that maybe my store was just out of the original box I used to buy, but going by the complaints posted, they have replaced the original box with this new-shaped smaller box. I would still buy them if they were less product for less money, but I will not buy them for less product and the same price, as other crackers. It's sad.

I purchased Nabisco Mini Teddy Grahams, Honey flavor yesterday. The inside of the package has a strong paint smell and the Teddy Grahams taste awful. I called Nabisco and the rep explained that it might be because they are past their expiration date (which I didn't know when I bought them or opened them). This makes no sense to me. I have tasted old products and they just taste stale, not like they are poisoned. I'm sending them to Nabisco's lab to have them tested. They said they will provide me with a report of what is in them. We shall see. We have had upset stomachs after sampling this awful product.

I opened a box of Teddy Grahams and inside were these chunks of what looked like white rock. They didn't smell like chemicals but instead they smelled like feet! Nabisco has some explaining to do.

Nabisco Premium Saltine Crackers have been a staple in our household for over 50 years. Guess what? We have purchased our last box of these crackers! You want to know the reasons? Compare them to Keebler Zesta Saltine Crackers and you will know what Nabisco Premium Saltine's quality used to be. Something has happened to the taste, texture, and look of Nabisco. And apparently, it was thought that brand loyalty would keep customers coming back despite the change(s).

Wrong! All Nabisco would have to do is have a few employees try a taste test comparison of Nabisco vs. Keebler and take a vote. Then, I guarantee that Nabisco would change its recipe/processes with some heavy pressure on its development team or pay some hefty salaries to hire some competent people away from Keebler.

Nabisco Sea Salt Saltines, I opened packet and very strong metallic/paint thinner odor. I took a small bite and it was horrible. I checked other packages and all smelled the same. I called the 800 number and reported it. As other people, I purchased it at Wal-Mart. I then vomited several times. I'm saving the packets and box just in case.

Nabisco chose to ** customers during a continued recession by reducing the amount of Triscuit Thin Crisps box by 27% at the same cost it charged for the original greater amount (27% less, 7.5 oz., at the same cost as the old box of 9.5 oz)! I get the marketing and finance of selling less for the same or higher cost, but 27% and in the worst of times--is that how they treat their customers? I'm sure most people haven't caught on and continue to buy the "differently shaped box" not realizing that Nabisco/Kraft is rolling on floor laughing about how stupid many of their customers are! But why did they pick the middle of a downturn to increase cost and decrease amount of one of their products?

My son was given Teddy Gram Honey Snacks as a snack at Pre-school today. After a couple of the children started eating them, they started spitting them out, complaining about a bad taste. The teacher smelled the box and immediately stopped the children from eating any more of them. I was told the box had a strong chemical smell. Why would Nabisco continue to distribute products like this that they know young children will eat? I for one will never purchase any Nabisco crackers or cookies again.

I purchased a box of Cinnamon Teddy Grahams last month. I normally put a little goody in my son's lunch box. Well, I am fortunate that my husband got into the box before I sent some to school with my son. He put a handful in his mouth, chewed and swallowed, only to think that he had been poisoned! These Teddy Grahams were rancid! The fumes coming from the box were so bad, we had to put the box out in our garage because my husband could still smell it even with the box closed, I guess, because he ate them and was sensitive and nauseous due to consumption. We don't want to throw it away. We want to bring it somewhere to be examined! After doing research, I have come to find that Nabisco puts chemicals in their food to preserve it, obviously there isn't quality control at their plants, because this should have never been boxed! We will never buy Nabisco brand again, more because they are aware of this problem and haven't fixed it!

I bought a box of Premium Crackers at a local Walmart and when I went to get my last sleeve of crackers they were stalled. The expiration date is 09mar12. The UPC code is 4400000057. I buy these crackers because Nabisco has the best. I was just disappointed to find they were stalled when I was ready to serve them with our soup.

I commented yesterday about purchasing the Teddy Grahams with chemical taste and smell. I now believe the problem is high levels of TBHQ. TBHQ is a diesel that the FDA allows up to .02 percent in foods so that they will have a longer storage life. I now think Nabisco is using too much of this TBHQ in their products. Research online as I never knew this existed. This has many side effects ranging from nausea up to cancer. I am so thinking about going organic!

I bought Nabisco Teddy Grahams, Cinnamon variety and it smelled like chemicals and tasted like paint thinner or something.

Crackers smelled like paint thinner and after a brief taste made me gag and nearly vomit.

I gave my 18-month old grandson a cracker for lunch. When I later tasted one, I realized it had a terrible chemical odor. Another unopened sleeve was just as bad. It smells like paint thinner. It's awful. I'm dismayed to see that Nabisco has been aware of the problem for some time and has not recalled the packages from the stores. We will be changing brands of crackers and will carefully check any other Nabisco products before using it.

The saltines smelled like strong paint when I opened the sealed plastic. I had to toss them all and waste my lunch. Get it together!

I, too, have been part of the bad-tasting, poisoned and foul-smelling premium saltines, in addition to other things. It makes you wonder why Nabisco's Quality Assurance and Quality Control department didn't catch such a large deployment of a detrimental product into the public. People from literally all over the country are experiencing this and not a caring word or warning from Nabisco. To put icing on the cake, I also began purchasing the Triscuit Thin Crisps in the 9+ oz box at just over $2.00 earlier this year. They used to be packaged in the same box size as regular Triscuits. Weeks later, these were pulled from the shelf and replaced with a newly designed, smaller box of 7.6 oz. while the price was generically increased by 25-35 cents at all the stores.

I cannot buy them any longer because every time I see the box, I am reminded of the blatant price gouging that Nabisco is doing while they continue to put out products without proper safety and quality measures in place. There is no longer sufficient care or concern for the customer that buys their products, pays their salaries and has made their company what it is today.

I opened a package of Nabisco saltine crackers and almost fainted from the smell. It was so terrible like chemicals and mold and death. Luckily, the smell was so overpowering that I smelled it before eating one. I had to toss the whole box. Disgusting. Do not solicit to me.

I bought Nabisco Sweet Cinnamon Holiday Thins and opened the box. The bag had a rip at the top! The box was not damaged at all which only leads me to believe that it happened before it went into the box! I'm going to get my money back tomorrow. I'm not throwing it away, they're not getting my money!

My son opened a package of saltine crackers and ate one and his tongue went numb and got sick to his stomach. We smelled the package and it smelled like poison and tasted like it as well. My son had a severe stomach reaction to eating one. He was throwing up and had stomach cramps.

I opened a package of crackers and they had a funny taste, so I smelled them and they had a strong chemical odor. Now I'm afraid I might get sick from the one I ate.

I purchased a box of Nabisco Original Premium Saltines from a local grocer. I used two of the packets, no problem. When the 3rd packet was opened, a chemical smell was very strong. I opened the 4th packet, no smell, but there was insect larva, eggs and web inside the opening. (My guess is there may have been an infestation in the ingredients and a chemical was applied to kill those insects.)

I am a very loyal shopper. If I like something, I usually will purchase it again. Thanksgiving, I usually make a cracker crust that my family just simply loves. I purchased the Vanilla Wafers and the Graham Crackers; both not only smelled funny but the wafers actually had a gray coating on it. I could not take it back to Stop n Shop where I brought it from but had to chuck it up.

Thanksgiving is a holiday that brings families together. The meal is the main reason for the time and energy spent by loved ones in order to bring memories to all, adults and children alike. My grandchildren did not get a chance to taste my banana pudding because of the defective product that has slipped past the processing plant.

Please, if you do not want your loyal customers to stop patronizing your products, continue to do exactly what you are doing. Letting the bad ** get past you. And you wonder why other countries are surpassing the U.S. I will no longer purchase anything by Nabisco. I will purchase Knockoffs, at least you know you are getting ripped-off. I thank you and all my relatives thank you for a non-existing banana pudding.

I, too, have had Nabisco Original Premium Saltine crackers with a bad taste and smell. Even the box smells. Thanks, Nabisco, for ruining my meatloaf supper tonight.

I just opened a new box of Premium Saltine crackers purchased from a local Wal-Mart. The smell was terrible. I found this website for complaints and found that many people all over the country were experiencing the same thing. I had to throw the whole box away.

I have a family carton of Premium Saltine crackers. I opened a sleeve of crackers and the smell was bad; I tasted one and it was bad, too. I have eaten some, but they all have a chemical or "metallic-ey" taste and after taste. I opened a second sleeve to see if it was just the first one, but no change--still bad taste/smell. You need to check your facilities where the crackers are made and packaged for problems. Surely, you don't want problems with your reputation, right? I haven't been sickened by the consumption as some have, but sure don't want to eat any, and feel like I wasted my money on these crackers! You do not have permission to release my name/address/phone or email to any entity for any reason.

I bought a box of original Wheat Thins and they have shrunk them down. They are 1 1/4 inch square and tasteless. I also noticed the same thing as another consumer about it being salty, hard, and flavorless.

My favorite crackers are the chicken in the biscuit, I have turned so many people on to there crackers. When I was little my mom used to buy there every shopping trip and now I do the same or should I say did the same. The last 3 times I have bought these crackers they have been burnt. Overcooked and hard, so I will not take that chance again. I am so disappointed because there were my favorites and 3 strikes and you are out. I can't eat burnt crackers nor do I have money to waste for something that gets thrown away.

My store wouldn't return them because they say it's the manufacturer so I'm out the money and out my favorite snack. I don't know what you changed about them. It wasn't a good change and you have lost a lot of customers because me and my family will no longer buy them if they continue to be burnt and hard. I am an unhappy customer.

Someone mentioned that the cinnamon Teddy Grahams emitted a chemical odor and were inedible. This was the exact same problem I just had with the chocolate variety. I had six boxes in the order, all of which appear to be tainted by this problem. I had to throw them out.

After three boxes we are about to give-up on your product! What a shame. My family always joked about not being able to serve anything but Premiums at our house. Now what shall we do? I would like to receive an explanation and to have our confidence in your crackers restored.

I bought a 10 oz. box of Nabisco cinnamon Teddy Grahams. I opened the box and there was a very pungent smell that emitted from the box. I didn't think much of it and put a handful of them in my mouth. I almost spit them out. The taste was so bad. It's hard to describe the bad flavor. It's kind of bitter, chemical tasting. It's nothing similar to anything I've tasted before. I don't know what's wrong with them, but I'm glad it was me that ate them first and not my kids. The taste stayed in my mouth for about an hour after eating them.

I purchased my grocery at Pick n Save Brookfield, Wisconsin upon purchasing Nabisco saltine crackers my packages were all broken up on one occasion and on two other grocery shopping trips the batches of crackers were burnt on the ends. Please be careful.

I like chips ahoy, they are my favorite. Last week, I bought 3 bags of mini chips ahoy with zip lock. Unfortunately, the bag needs a knife to open it and the zip to keep the cookies fresh and seal doesn't work. You should do test the product before sending it to the public.

I am disappointed with Nabisco Oreo for wasting my time in going to the Homeland store, to be advised by the store manager, that Nabisco Oreo Fudgees are no longer being sold due to an executive decision by Nabisco Oreo. Why not be honest with your customers and advise them that Nabisco Oreo Fudgees have been discontinued?

It was smelly crackers and tasted terrible. Ok so I thought this was just something that we did but now that I have seen all these complaints something is definitely wrong. I threw out 2 boxes of the Original Saltine Crackers because they tasted and smelled terrible. I am not sure how to explain the smell but I didn't think it was chemical; more earthy smelling. It was not good though and even worse to taste. Something however chemically tastes in the chocolate chips from Chip Ahoy Cookies. What the hell is wrong at Nabisco?

Why in the world does Nabisco make the Newton's Fruit Thins, a new product, in Canada when our country (USA) needs new jobs and industry so badly? It is disgraceful. My family has, like any other Americans, brought success to Nabisco, having purchased your products for our lifetime. What will you do to correct this obvious lack of concern for the USA? This leads to the further deterioration of the US manufacturing base, economy and my/our children's/grandchildren's standard of living.

The Walmart store in Bonham, TX never keeps enough of the new Newtons Thins. I have been to the store for 5 nights in a row and the shelf remains empty. I have complained to the store manager and they told me it's the company's fault that this product is not restocked properly and they can't help me. So here I am, asking for your help. You have made a product so good that stores can't keep it on the shelf. So can you have more put on the shelves, maybe less of the old Fig stuff.

I opened one of the Nabisco Original Saline crackers (4) to a box and cut the top of the package and found a piece of pink gum in the package. What may I asked is going on with packaging?

We are disappointed as we always used the various Nabisco products. We expect a new box of saline crackers and my son, Mark, has asked for oyster crackers also. See what you can do.

I put some Nabisco Premium Cracker to my soup. It tasted awful. I knew it was not my soup because before putting the crackers in, I tasted the soup. I checked the crackers and they smelled like a strong chemical. I tasted one and spit it out. I could not find the expiration anywhere on the package. I am very allergic to mold. I was scared that it may had been toxic. I have a headache, my sinuses are stuffy and I feel like there is pressure. I am taking antihistamine. If I die tonight, someone do a toxicology report. I have went online and found that others have already complained about this problem. Shame on you for not recalling.

I opened a small sleeve of Nabisco saltine crackers and the smell was horrific. It was so bad that I didn't think it could be coming from the crackers, thought it was something else in the office I work at.

So I took a small bite and it tasted like a very strong chemical. The smell was also like a strong chemical smell. I wrote to Nabisco and have yet to receive a response from them.

I purchased multiple boxes of Nabisco Saltine crackers, each of which have a musty, earthy and chemical smell to them. It's very difficult to describe. They taste bad too. I tried one to see and was sick to my stomach. I will not be purchasing these ever again for fear that I could make myself or any of my family sick. This is truly a shame. What happened to quality control? Does no one pay attention in their company?

I purchased several packages of Chips Ahoy's Minis Go-paks. These are the only packaging with these size of cookies and usually had exceptional taste. However, once I bought several packages at once, three out of five of the entire cup was burnt.

I worked at the retail location and so I just told my manager and threw the cookies away. After this happened several more times, my manager looked into it and said it was not an issue on our end. I finally made a formal complaint on the Nabisco website and they sent me a coupon for a replacement, but said that it probably wasn't their fault because it seems like the store's warehouse may have caused the damage.

These cookies have been cooked too long. When I used the coupon at a completely different retailer, I encountered the same problem. Now that I see others are coming across burnt products as well, I feel more confident that this is an issue on their end. After reading the sickening stories of rat and bug parts in their crackers, I think I will no longer be purchasing Nabisco products.

I have been buying Nabisco crackers forever. It is the only brand I buy. Over the past six months the flavor has been off, and the crackers are all burnt. I have thrown more out than I have eaten. Nabisco recently changed the recipe to sea salt, and they are still burnt.

I bought a package of 8 sleeves of the "Original Premium Saltine Crackers" at a local market place. When I got home and opened them, the packages were all sealed tightly, but when I opened them up to serve them there was a strong odor of some sort of paint or chemical. I bit in to one and it tasted like a chemical of some sort! My son had tried to eat them earlier in the day and said they "tasted like rubber and smelled like paint." I would really like to know what we ingested.

Last night my husband took two individual packs of Fig Newtons to work with him. He bit into something hard in the first pack and just figured it was a stem from the fig or something and spit it out. He then started eating the second pack and there was something large and hard in it. He washed it off under water and realized it was a bone. We looked on line and found that the bone is a caudal vertebrae which is part of the back bone of a rat. We are so disgusted! My kids usually bring these to school with their lunches. I will never buy another Nabisco product again. We have saved the remainder of the box/12 packs in case anyone needs to look at it.

I opened a box of Original Premium Saltine Cracker and I did not notice the smell until after using in my salmon croquettes. I do not recall where we purchased the crackers from but the odor was like a combination of spoiled, molded bread with a chemical smell. My husband and I ate one before we both knew something was wrong. I threw out the batch of croquettes and the house smells like fumes. We had to take an Alka-Seltzer to settle our stomachs. I have always purchased Nabisco products, but this is scary and I'll never purchase again.

Nabisco Saltines are bad, really bland. They've slowly gone downhill. Now these taste like flour. I sure am glad the company tries to accommodate the customers instead of the interest groups.

I purchased a box of Oreo Cakesters from ShopRite in West Caldwell, NJ on approximately January 3rd, bar code no. 44000024628 and best used date 31Jan11BD1. These are individual packed Cakesters, but one of the packages was empty (Not opened but nothing in it). Maybe the machines need to be checked. I have the actual package if needed.

I opened up a box of Nabisco Original Premium Saltine Crackers, took a bite and I thought I was going to puke. They had a terrible smell and a terrible taste .almost like a stink bug. I opened up a second package and had the same smell and no I did not taste again as it was so nasty. I had a second box in my pantry, opened it up and had the same smell. I had to throw both boxes out. My mother is visiting me from Oklahoma and said she had experienced the same smell/taste a few months. Needless to say, I will not be purchase Nabisco Saltines again. What is going on with these crackers?

These crackers were purchased on 12/6 at Publix in Bartow, FL. Bar code on top of box was 0507. The box has a quick-and-easy recipe. I could find no date codes on the 4 paper wrappers. At least one of the bags was torn open and that left cracker crumbs on all 4 packages and inside the box. I don't expect to see that at Nabisco's pictures.

Wheat Thins are not the same! Nabisco has made them slightly thicker and, I believe, sweeter. Not as good! The box I purchased at Costco has two bags. One of which I just opened and the whole heat-sealed side seam of the bag came undone or was already undone. Stale.

I recently purchased a package of Nabisco Triscuit Crackers and they taste quite salty. The nutrition information panel states that they contain 140 mg of Sodium per serving which is 6 crackers. I feel that the nutrition label is incorrect, and that they contain quite a bit more sodium than is listed on the nutritional label.

I have the multigrain saltine crackers. I got maybe 1/2 way through one of the "stacks" and I see a shiny black thing in one of the holes. It is not alive and looks like a bug of some sort. I'm keeping this cracker in a zip lock bag in case someone wants to examine it.

I purchased a pack of Oreo from Acme and when I got home and opened the pack, the Oreo tasted like they had been put on a grill and burned. First I thought it was just the one, but when I tasted another, it tasted the same like a burnt cookie. The whole packed is like that. They even smell burned.

I am very unhappy with the box of Original Premium Saltine Cracker. They were over baked and burnt. I have expected better. You need to increase your quality control. I'm not sure about this number. But here is what I think it is: 12MAR11AE308 2356. Please do not use my e-mail for advertising or selling it.

I opened a fresh box of Triscuits and they're so hard I could hardly chew one. I was just really disappointed.

My boyfriend opened a sleeve of Nabisco Premium Mulitgrain Saltine crackers to eat with some tuna and looked down to see tiny little beetle bugs crawling around on the cracker and in his tuna. He looked in the sleeve and found more. He threw that away. I just opened a new sleeve out of the same box (we were unsure if the bugs came from the crackers or our cabinet) and after about 1/4 of the sleeve in, I realized the same thing was happening!

This is the grossest thing I have ever seen, trying not to be sick from the thought that I probably just ate bugs! Read other complaints of this nature and the plant where these crackers are being made need to do some serious cleaning!

While eating a bowl of gumbo with plenty of Nabisco crackers, I noticed a small shiny black bug which had been baked into the cracker which I was about to eat. Upon inspection, several other crackers in the same sleeve had either bug parts or whole embedded into the cracker. As I write this, I am trying hard not to lose what I ate.

I purchased Nabisco Triscuits family size with the code 17FEB11XLB08 and the product was dense and flat. Normally the product is light and somewhat airy. Hopefully this is not the beginning of a trend!

This is the fourth box of Wheat Thins and/or Triscuits that I have purchased from three different stores and the plastic bag inside the box is opened. Some of the boxes are sliced down the middle of the front of the box (maybe with a box cutter) and when you open it, the same for the plastic bag. The whole seam of the plastic bag of the box I purchased yesterday was opened.

There was a shiny black bug baked into my Nabisco multi-grain saltine crackers. I took pictures of it, but I don't see a way to attach a picture. It was just really disgusting. It just reminds me how dependent I am on factory food.

I am glad I finally found a site with similar problems as ours. The problem started last year, 2009. We had soup one night, and as always, we opened a sleeve of our Nabisco Original Premium Saltines to have with it. Well, the smell that came out of the plastic sleeve was horrible to say the very least! My husband had already put some of them in his soup which had to be thrown away. We opened another. Same thing and we had to throw both of our bowls of soup away. I had just bought them about 3-4 weeks before and were not opened yet. I took them back to our Fred Meyer grocery store. They replaced them for me. I opened those the following week, same thing. I have now thrown away 4 more boxes. I just purchased another box last week. I opened them tonight, same thing. I give up now. Something is really wrong to say the least, as it seems I am not the only one that has experienced this!

After reading about all the other problems, I don't think I will be buying anything else by Nabisco, which is actually quite a lot, cereals, cookies, crackers. I don't know what has happened to the company, but it sure is not good. It's very sad as we have used all of these products for a good 50 years! What a shame!

I opened a package of Nabisco saltines. They smelled and tasted like a paint product. I dad to throw them out! I'm very disappointed.

The first week of August 2010, I purchased a box of Premium multigrain saltines. After eating a few, I noticed that the crackers were infested with hundreds of tiny mites. I checked the other sealed sleeves and they were also infested. Needless to say, that will be the last box of Premium crackers I will ever purchase and I will be trying to avoid any Nabisco products.

I got a box of Nabisco Premium with multi-grain crackers. I still have the box. The crackers have a red and black color bug baked in it. I'm sick to my stomach. I feel so bad; this is unreal. The bug's baked into the crackers, lots of them.

After opening a sleeve of saltines, there is a distinct odor and taste from the plastic wrapper off gassing. I noticed this in the past and had hoped it was a one time incident, but this was a brand new box so there is a definite problem with the packaging. The old wax paper wraps never did this. I ended up not being able to use the product.

On Wed, July 21, 2010, I purchased a box of Premium Saltines at HEB in Corpus Christi, TX, 1100 Violet Rd. I opened the box to serve with Shrimp cocktail for dinner. The box is not damaged in any way, and I made no cuts when I opened the box and yet all four tubes of crackers had a slit at the top rendering the crackers stale. Having always bought Nabisco products, I was shocked as there is no doubt they came from Nabisco to the store in that condition. The store was not negligent. Someone inspecting or packaging the crackers missed something or caused something to happen. This was brand seal #4400000057. The expiration date is 10 Oct10AZ201 21:08. Sorry to complain but I thought you should know about this breach in the quality.

I recently purchased a package of Nabisco Classic Iced Lemon Shortbread cookies. They are about the worst tasting cookie I've ever purchased. I've had cheaper cookies that tasted a lot better than these. I expected better from Nabisco.

I have been purchasing Nabisco Original Grahams for at least 6 months. I checked the expiration date and its good, but the Graham's taste stale. They are not crispy as usual. I am tired of wasting my money and throwing them away. The box I have now expires on 8-29-10.They should be fine, but they taste stale. I only opened one pack out of the box and threw them away. Can anything be done about this? Thank you for your help.

I purchased two 1 lb. boxes of Nabisco Original Premium Saltine Crackers from Winn Dixie Grocery Store in Dunnellon, Florida. The boxes were not damaged, but when I returned home and opened the box, there were two sleeves that were torn. I had to throw the food away. The cost was $2.99 per box.

I thought [their] Flatbread Crackers were great but very deceptive when you see the crackers in the window and open the box with only 1 tray of crackers and the other half the box is empty. I was expecting a whole box full like when I buy Wheat Thins or Triscuits. I will not buy this product again just because of that.

I just want to join in on the complaints about Nabisco brand Premium Saltine crackers. I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who has issues with this company. I have been eating this brand of cracker all my life and recently I have noticed that the whole box is overcooked. That really takes from the natural taste and I think they are using less salt also.

The crackers are not burnt to a crisp but baked far too long and are dark brown in color. Yuck! Some people have been complaining about them smelling and or tasting like diesel fuel, but I have not experienced that. I hope Nabisco is not trying to satisfy the government's quest to try and regulate how much salt we the people consume. Thanks.

I have preferred your product for all my life and 50 years of marriage, and I am fed up with the crackers Premium Saltines. Recently their taste has descended and their thickness has diminished to about half. This started about six months ago. I hoped conditions would improve but no. I suggested to my wife that we buy a different and try to find a suitable substitute. I guess we will start with Krispy. Sorry you have lost your pride of product.

We opened a box of Nabisco Premium saltine crackers this evening I recently bought at Super Target with UPC #0 44000 00057 8 and the smell and taste were horrible. As I was reading the other consumer complaints I saw a similar problem--smelled like diesel fuel. Ours smelled and tasted horrible--like paint but the description of diesel fuel is probably better. I just purchased this box of saltine crackers about a month ago. I'm very disappointed to ruin a meatloaf with these crackers. Ugh. Now we are all sick to our stomach. I hope this complaint is looked into. Thanks.

Re: Nabisco Premium Saltine Crackers. While vacationing in Florida, I bought a box of Original Premium Saltine Crackers. In the first box that I bought, the crackers were okay. In the 2nd box however, I noticed the crackers were not only in the oven longer (experienced cooks can tell) but the crackers were thinner at least by a "nano-inch". They're cutting down on the cracker but the price is not being cut. I've been eating saltines for 50-odd years; I know what I eat.

I purchased a box of Triscuit cracker from the Target store in Torrance, California today. The crackers are fresh, however several crackers were burnt, affecting the taste.

Today, 02-22-10, I purchased 2 different packages of Nabisco Classic Cookies. One was Iced Oatmeal and the other was Iced Lemon Shortbread. Neither was what I expected from Nabisco. The iced oatmeal tasted like cardboard with an iced vanilla topping. The texture and crispness of oatmeal was definitely absent. The cookie was flat. The other was Iced Lemon Shortbread. The cookie lacked the rich taste of shortbread and it tasted much like cardboard with a lemon icing. Although the packages were still in code, they seemed stale and neither had anything resembling the "classic taste" one would expect from 'old timey' cookies reminding one of the cookies grandma used to bake. I paid $3.00 per package and consider the expense as a waste of time and money. I will not buy these again and will advise my family and friend of my disappointment.

I purchased a box of Triscuits from Target a couple of weeks ago. As I cook when I come home from work, I snacked on the crackers. I usually just grab a handful, set them on a dish, and eat from there. Grabbing the fourth cracker, I saw something weird in the cracker--it looked like a cockroach mixed and baked within the cracker. I put the cracker in a ziplock. What should I do with it? Is there somewhere I could go to get it checked out? I feel sick to my stomach and completely disgusted with these crackers.

My wife bought a 4 carton pack of these tasty treats cause I like them. Slick package. At Costco. Got out a box, regular sized looking, opened it and there was about an inch of space looking me in the eye! Opened that first celophane pack, drew out 2 for dunking in milk and they were skinny! Nabisco is cutting the product. I cry foul. You know as well as I do that hardly anyone pays much attention to product wt. Nabisco will no doubt hollar they put the wt right there on the box but bottom line is I the customer feel gypped and you know what that means? I will tell on them to my wife and she won't be buying anymore of those. She just got a membership card at Costco and is finding out that that place is full of gyp products like this. I won't be surprised if she asks for her membership $$ back. Nabisco, shape up!

I work at a university in Pittsburgh, PA. I alone purchase at least $250 worth of cookies each month for our daily coffee hour. I have to prepare the trays of cookies and every time I (try to) open the Easy Open Pull Tab I have a problem. It's a great concept, especially for a household that does not eat cookies on a regular basis. I'm sure the cookies are nice and fresh.

However, once I get the pull tab opened, only about 2/3 of the container of cookies is easy to extract. It may be my chubby fingers, but I don't think so, BUT, it's extremely difficult to get all the cookies out of the container without breaking some. I always end up tearing the seam of the package open and pulling out the plastic tray. If I don't do that, then I have to tilt the package so that the cookies being held in by the packaging, can get free. It's very cumbersome for me to use the Easy Open Pull Tab to extract all the cookies on the plastic tray.

Like I said, GREAT concept, but someone wasn't thinking about us chubby-fingered people who can't maneuver the package too well. If I had long, slender fingers, I probably wouldn't be having such problems. But, I don't and I am! Please stop making those EASY OPEN PULL TABS packages! Go figure, with all the genius neutrons zapping around your "think tank" that this EOPT is the only idea they could come up with . . . .

The new Flatbread crackers are wonderful...BUT packaging needs improvement, I guess. Opened for guests...at least one-third were broken, yet the box was undamaged. Disappointment.

I opened a sleeve from the 3 lb. box of nabisco premium saltine crackers and noticed a very odd smell. I opened another sleeve and the same smell was noted. Lot number on the box was 4400000464. What is going on with this product? Has anyone had contact from Nabisco concerning this issue?

I purchased Nabisco Original Premium Saltine Crackers. The UPC #0 44000 00057 8. We had company last night for dinner in which I had made chili. I put a pack of saltines out and when they were opened everyone backed away from the smell. They smelled like diesel fuel!! I opened another pack and they were the same way! I kept an open pack if you want it sent to you. I do expect this 1 lb box to be replaced by you. Could you please also let me know how this could happen? Thank you.

I have been buying the Nabisco Unsulted Top crackers for over 35 years. However, in the last year and a half the content of each sleve is less and less. I have contacted Nabisco two times; today was the second time. They firmly assured me that there is no problem with the weight. I suggested that perhaps the box is heavier now so the entire product weights a pound.

It's frustrating to open a box and find that the content of each sleeve is 3/4 full. I am very aware of what I had before and what I am getting now.

I think there is an economic conquece, the price has been going up and the amount of crackers has been decreased.

I bought a bag a nabisco chips ahoy and when i got home and opened the package all the cookines was crush and crumbled..i always buy chips ahoy and never had a problem.this time i was very dissapointed.i could not even eat the bag because there was not one cookie that was a whole one..i don't want to have to switch my brand because i have always liked chips ahoy but how do i know i will not get another bag that is a crushed..

100 Caloried Mini Teddy Grahams purchased: Bags were open, Teddy Grahams inside box loose. Will not stand in long lines to return. Will not buy this product again !

Other than the cost of the cookies there wasn't any economic damage.

Your so called double stuffed oreo's look excatly like the regular oreo's.I pay this much extra to get it double stuffed and when I get home and start to eat them they are very bad!!!You need to put more white filling in them if they are called DOUBLE STUFFED!!

Today I took a package of Chunky Chips Ahoy! out of our freezer. It had not been opened. I opened the end of the package and took out 4 cookies for dessert. Then right after lunch, as I usually do, I cut the package open with scissors so I could put the cookies in a Ziploc bag to keep them fresh.

I made the cut lengthwise across the top. As I did so, I was startled to see a cookie in the middle section of the package that looked anything but normal. The cookie was upside down and had been hollowed out by something, ...even leaving a small hole that went all the way through the cookie. As if that wasn't strange enough, 3 whole cookies were missing from that compartment. In the end compartment, there were also several cookies missing their edges, like they had been nibbled on.

In my whole life, I have never complained about any food product but this just didn't look right.We are 2 adults living here and I was the only one in the kitchen opening the cookies. Perhaps there is a simple explanation. If so, we'd like to hear it. We certainly aren't going to eat anymore cookies from that package. Our thoughts naturally go to rodent contamination of some sort. We noticed the cookies are made in Mexico and are wondering about Nabisco's Quality Control Dept. there. If the cookies ARE contaminated, someone needs to know about it. I am a retired Christian School teacher but remain very busy running a ranch. But this cookie package was just odd enough to make me take the time to alert you about it. Thanks very much for your time!

I have been buying Premium Saltines Crackers Forever! It seems that in the last few months all the crackers are burned. It seems to be every pack. My family and I do not enjoy them any longer. I have been throwing the packs out and wasting my money. This was one of our favorite crackers. Hopefully you can be of some help with this matter. Thank You.
