Walker's Shortbread Stem Ginger Biscuits, Scottish Cookies, 5.3 Oz (Pack of 6)

Well packaged, arrived quickly. Delicious, fresh ginger cookies

Okay, not for everyone but I love the flavor and the sharp tang of ginger in these. Great cookie company, and these are rather unique.

First of all, as Amazon continues to conflate reviews for various items under the listing for one item, let me make clear that this review is for the "Walker's Shortbread Highland Oatcake Crackers." Secondly, don't be confused by this name. The company is called "Walker's" and the words "Shortbread" and "Crackers" have apparently been inserted for marketing purposes. These are neither shortbread nor crackers but rather oatcakes, which can best be described as a cross between the two. They haven't been made with butter and they contain very little sugar, so they're not buttery and sweet like shortbread. They contain very little sugar but they also contain very little salt, so they're not really like crackers either. They're not like cakes and they're not at all like Scandinavian crispbread. They're unlike the oatcakes made by Nairn's - which are harder and more bland, more like English water crackers - probably because the Walker's contain a little sugar but the Nairn's contain no sugar at all. The Walker's may also have a slightly more delicate texture than Stockan's oatcakes, though the Stockan's are also delicious.Oat flour is slightly sweet to begin with, and these oatcakes make a great snack unembellished. Great with honey, jam, or roasted hazelnut butter (better than almond or peanut). When I want to wash down something sweet with my Darjeeling, I spread hazelnut butter on one oatcake and raspberry jam on another and then sandwich them. My craving is satisfied, and I'm not tempted by a handy supply of ready-made cookies. The Subscribe & Save price for these is great, and every package in the lot that I received shows a very long expiration date.

I ordered this twice and both times we received only 1 box, instead of the stated 6 boxes that were supposed tobe delivered. We ordered this a few months ago and got the 6 boxes as shown.Will not be ordering again.

Walkers is always good.

Delicious.

I purchased Walkers Shortbread Highland Oat Crackers, 9.9 Ounce Box in a six-pack and the carton arrived in perfect condition with a reasonably distant best by date imprinted on each box. The crackers are a little more crumbly than I recall, but the taste is what I expected in an oat cracker of this style. The texture is consistent, not varying from bite to bite or cracker to cracker, and like others, they really need an accompaniment and don't do well when eaten in their simple dry format. A soft texture and/or sweet topping do very well with these and they can really be adorned without worry that they won't hold. I personally don't weigh them down so their texture can be enjoyed without the topping. I appreciate that these each contain 4 individually wrapped packets so they will stay fresher. I also store the opened crackers in the refrigerator.

These suddenly went up to a much higher price, so I stopped buying them - now back down to their previous price roughly - thank you - now I will buy again. I need to keep eating oats for my low cholesterol diet, so that is why I buy them (I do not like porage oats in a bowl) - so these make a great breakfast with my home made tofu ''cream cheese" !! I did find other cookies with oats, but they contain sugar so not ideal ! My cholesterol is basically 0 since my diet changes !
