Malkist crackers are basically soda crackers with a coating of caramelized sugar on one side. Malt extract is also used to flavor the crackers, giving them a slight beer flavor.
- Texture: This snack is crispy as long as the crackers are kept in an air dry container. Rating: 10 out of 10.
- Flavor: Like a saltless beer flavored saltine covered in brown sugar. Rating: 10 out of 10.
- Packaging: Rather plain looking clear plastic wrap packages of two rows of crackers. These are packaged like all the other soda crackers made by Garden, so it's easy to confuse them. Rating: 5 out of 10.
- Availability: Available in most Chinese grocery stores. Rating: 8 out of 10.
- Origins: Garden is a very famous and well established baked goods company (like Hostess or Wonderbread) in Hong Kong. They are best known for their white bread, cookies, and crackers. Anybody who's been in the general vacinity of the bakery has smelled the welcoming aroma of fresh baked bread. Their manufacturing practices are pretty open and public tours through their bakery are often given. Rating: 10 out of 10.
