Crunch Master Sesame Crackers

Hi,

I've been eating Crunch Master Sesame rice crackers for months now and they are supremely delicious. BUT now they have changed their recipe!!! The packaging looks the same, but the nutritional info (salt, fat, etc) is slightly different. The taste is WAAY different. And the ingredients listed are the same as before.

I have tried calling the company (looked them up online) and the phone number was disconnected. Actually, I was only able to find the "distributor" whose number was disconnected. I have no idea who makes them and the purported crunchmaster.com site was not working.

They do make non gluten-free crackers too, and I am concerned that this new version of cracker may be contaminated, as I had some recent glutening, these taste weird, and are suspect. **Can anyone help?**

My first thought on this is that the company is either out of business, or in serious financial trouble. So, they might have sold the rights to someone else who simply used the same label with minor modifications. However, if the product itself is now made by someone else, there's no telling how different it will be. Companies cut corners so often I would not be surprized if they just slapped the label on them to meet shipping deadlines before they updated the ingredients list.

I think I found something on this. It looks like the parent company is Unified Products.

Here's some info:

Hi Riceguy,

Thanks for the link. Unified Products is who I called....and the publish date on the article link was 1999, so I guess the factory's not new....I'm gonna try calling information again next week....cause the new CrunchMasters just suck...

      Fighting for a name

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
