Hi - My order from Skyco (American products for delivery to the UK) arrived yesterday and I was really excited 'cos I'd asked for Graham's crackers as I thought they were IBS safe. I recevied Honeymaid and original Graham's crackers by 'Nabisco' but am reluctant to try them as when I've checked the ingrediants, both contain HFCS. What brands do other people use and are they HFCS free?

Thanks - ps I am a Brit in the UK so am not familiar with alot of the American brand products.

Unless you know for sure that HFCS is a trigger for you, I'd go ahead and try the crackers, personally... I've found that small amounts of HFCS, in soluble-fiber foods like that, don't bother me at all. But if you know for sure that it's a trigger for you, definitely don't try it!

That said, I buy Keebler brand original Grahams and they don't contain HFCS.

I have a Honeymaid low fat graham cracker every night with the meds I take before bed. So far, no problem.

Give it a try, you just might get a pleasant surprise.

Hi

Thanks for the advice. I think I'm not good with HFCS but I did try a few. They taste great, but I think I need to get a brand without HFCS. Need to get to America!
