About Wheat Thins

Wheat Thins is a whole grain wheat cracker produced by Mondelez International and sold at most US grocery chains, mass retailers, and club stores. The brand has been a staple US cracker since 1947, marketed as a lighter, whole grain snacking option. Multiple flavored varieties exist including Toasted Sesame, Hint of Salt, and Tomato Herb.

Common concerns with Wheat Thins products

Wheat Thins contain BHT as a packaging preservative and TBHQ in some flavored varieties. High-fructose corn syrup has been an ingredient in certain formulations, contributing to added sugar concerns. Some varieties contain dried sour cream or artificial flavors. While marketed as a 'whole grain' snack, the combination of BHT, processed oils, and added sugars makes Wheat Thins a modestly flagged product.
