The Spicy Cheddar Crackers and [Parmesan Crisps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/parmesan-flats) produced by the [American Baked Co.](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ben-jerrys-razz-up) are not like other run-of-the-mill crackers that can be purchased at just about any grocery store—both of these varieties feature individual crackers that are infused with 5mg of THC. As such, the brand advises trying "one cracker to start" and "two or more for a more intense experience."

As American Baked Co. is based out of Seattle, Washington, the low-dosage crispy cracker snacks put a premium on the inclusion of locally sourced ingredients.

In addition to producing Spicy Cheddar Crackers and Parmesan Chips, American Baked Co. also produces a single-serve Tomato-Basil Soup Mix with 10mg of THC that only needs the addition of hot water to be enjoyed as a hearty, warming meal.
