Advantages: A good value baby and toddler treat Disadvantages: None
Farley's rusks may well be made for babies and toddlers but put a packet of rusks in front of me and I wouldn't be able to resist pinching one from the packet. I cant put my finger on the attraction but there is definitely something about the smell of the rusks that is very appealing.
When my children were young rusks were considered as a luxury item, can you believe it?!
But the odd packet managed to make its way into my shopping trolley.

It is slightly more expensive than the others; it is £8.99 for a 860g tub whereas the others are £8.09. You make SMA Wysoy up in the same way as normal formula and it looks the same ...
Advantages: Absolutely delicious bread, very healthy Disadvantages: The price
what happens with my Ryvita Sesame crackers and it's a real pain.
It has no definite taste other than basic bread, it's the texture of it that makes it so good. The seeds and grains aren't crunchy but give it a lovely mildly rough, gritty feel to it.
