About these crackers
Nairn's On the Go Fruit & Seed Oatcakes, in brief.
Nairn's On the Go Fruit and Seed Oatcakes are oatcakes with currants (12%) and brown flaxseeds (6%), made with 68% wholegrain oats and a little brown sugar. The pack carries vegan and vegetarian claims.
They are sweeter than a savoury oatcake (16g of sugars per 100g on the label data) and lower in salt at 0.52g per 100g, a snack oatcake for the bag. One oatcake is 12.5g.
Fruit and oats is a natural match, and this oatcake is made for snacking. Currants and brown flaxseeds go into a wholegrain oat dough with a little brown sugar, so each oatcake is lightly sweet, fruity and nutty at once.
It is not the oatcake for a strong blue cheese, but it is very good with a mild Cheddar or Wensleydale, and on its own as a mid morning snack.

Taste and texture
Expect a lightly sweet, fruity flavour with toasted oats and flaxseed, and a firm, crumbly texture. The label data gives 440 kcal, 15.2g of fat and 9.6g of fibre per 100g.
What is in it
Wholegrain oats (68%), currants (12%) (currants, sunflower oil), brown sugar, sustainable palm fruit oil, brown flaxseeds (6%), raising agent (sodium bicarbonate) and sea salt. The label declares oats (gluten), says it may contain milk and nuts, and carries vegan and vegetarian claims.
Serving it
Eat them as they are, or with a slice of Wensleydale or mild Cheddar. They also suit butter or a little cream cheese, and a cup of coffee.

The story behind Nairn's
Nairn's story begins in 1896, when John and Sarah Nairn opened their bakery in Strathaven, a market town in Lanarkshire. Today Nairn's bakes in Edinburgh, and oats are the whole point: oatcakes rough and fine, cheese oatcakes, seeded and organic oatcakes, and a gluten free range. The oatcake is the Scottish cracker, mostly wholegrain oats with a little oil and salt, baked into a nutty, crumbly round that loves strong cheese; Nairn's Rough Oatcakes list 90% wholegrain oats. The gluten free oatcakes, crackers and flatbreads are made with gluten free oats, and Nairn's own label notes that some people who avoid gluten also react to avenin, a protein in oats.
Packaging: a 225g pack. Once the pack is open, fold it tightly closed or tip the crackers into an airtight tin, and keep them somewhere cool and dry. Damp air is what softens a cracker. The pack gives the best before date.
