Triscuit

Triscuit is a brand of cracker produced by Nabisco, a subsidiary of Mondelez International. The original product was introduced in 1901 by the National Biscuit Company in the United States. Triscuits are marketed as being made from three simple ingredients—whole wheat flour, oil, and salt—emphasizing their basic, no-frills composition. The crackers are square, baked to a crisp texture, and have a light brown, rustic appearance.

The manufacturing process involves shaping dough from the three ingredients, baking it until firm, and then cutting or breaking it into individual crackers. Over the years, Nabisco has expanded the line to include multiple varieties beyond the original, such as whole wheat versions, reduced-fat options, and a range of flavored lines and Thin Crisps, offering different oils and seasonings while maintaining the three-ingredient heritage in spirit.

Nutritional information varies by variety, but Triscuits are generally considered a source of complex carbohydrates with moderate fat content from the oil and varying sodium levels. They are commonly consumed as a snack or used as a base for toppings like cheese, vegetables, or spreads, reflecting their long-standing role in American snacking culture. The brand remains a recognizable product in Nabisco’s portfolio and is distributed in multiple markets beyond the United States.
