I have been able to find pretty much eveything that crave here in Seoul, but I have yet to see any crackers beyond Carr's.

Does anyone know where I can get some Wasa crackers, or Trisquits?

Cheers!

[Insert witty racial remark here]


OP, have you checked the foreign food market next to What the Book in Itaewon, Costco or the basement food store in Doota?

Lotte sells crackers called ZEC (don't know the Hangul) and they taste like Ritz.

I've yet to see Wasa Crackers either. I've asked quite a few people about them and nobody has seen them. I checked in a few Itaewan places with no luck. They are great with Hummus or peanut butter and jelly.

COSTCO, definitely COSTCO. They have a fantastic selection of crackers, and this was the primary reason I took on a membership. Well worth it. Oh, yeah.

IVY crackers are Saltines. Delicious in kimchi chiggae!

You can get Carr's at the Centum City Home Plus. They are at the very end of the cracker/cookie aisle, towards the cash registers, top shelf. Up until last week they were 900 won a box, but now they went up to 1,400. Typical, anything I like to eat stops getting stocked, or goes up in price. And by the way they have some low end Chilean wine (Rio Bueno) for 4,500 a bottle.

We "crackers" prefer to be called Caucasian-Americans.

OP, I bought these crackers at Costco. There is nothing special about them, but they are better than the standard fare. I have 2 boxes. You can have them if you want to come get them. It's time for me to shed some weight Laughing .

I saw triscuits at Red Door in Seoul.

CostCo has Ritz crackers, Saltines, and others (in different isles I believe).
