While chocolate chip cookies, digestives, and even Marie biscuits take away more adulation and loyal customers, sweet-salty crackers also have a special place in the hearts and kitchen-shelves of biscuit-lovers. Krack Jack by Parle and 50-50 by Britannia are two strong contenders and have had their steady loyalists for years. In this review, we did a face-off between the two purely on taste, and despite a close competition, we can say that Parle Krack Jack is the tastier and crispier Sweet-Salty Cracker between the two.
