Hi Boo, They have no free food allowance,so for every 20calories = 1 syn...Hope that helps.

Maybe it's what our bodies are craving/needing,or maybe we're just really wanting the things we know we should'nt really have! lol

Yes,they're the ones...thought they might be synned with them having flour in them! I went with the 20cal=1syn rule as I was'nt sure,glad I did,they're not bad for 3 little crackers,I had 6 with quark on,not the sweetest tastiest snack,but just needed that biscuit crunch even though I've never...

Hi RickCov, I bought some of those eat smart crackers when I was at morrisons & just wondered if you knew if they were synned? They're fat free & only 10 cals per 3 crackers,although they don't taste of much,they're ok if you want something crunchy with a bit of quark on.

Never....I was in there yesterday,but never even thought of looking for them! will call back in tomorrow...Thanks RickCov.

Hope I've done the above right!
