""Sorry Trader Joe's, but I simply hated these crackers," wrote Tasting Table's Emily Hunt. "They actually gave me a negative opinion of parsley, and now I'm convinced it should never be the main flavor profile in anything." While a desperate person with a box of these on hand could potentially use them as a crunchy topping for a dish like baked mac and cheese, she ultimately believes "that's far more trouble than they're worth.""
"Emily Hunt isn't alone in finding the Trader Joe's parsley crackers to be almost entirely inedible. Members of the Trader Joe's subreddit r/traderjoes have a lot to say about these herb-laden crackers, including how the flavor is akin to rabbit food, cardboard, and the smell of goldfish food. "Not impressed," one user wrote. "Mine were packed full of parsley. Way too much.""
A taste test of eleven Trader Joe's crackers ranked Parsley Crackers last. Testers found an overpowering, vegetal dried-parsley flavor that made the crackers unpleasant to eat and likened the taste to frozen spinach. One possible use is as a crunchy topping for dishes such as baked mac and cheese, but that option was judged impractical and not worth the effort. Online shoppers compared the crackers' flavor and aroma to rabbit food, cardboard, and goldfish food. Multiple shoppers reported that the product contains an excessive amount of parsley and recommended sampling in-store before purchase.
