This is very true, but there’s something deeply satisfying when they get that just-right crunchy-to-soggy ratio!

Depends on the cheese-to-Triscuit ratio, I guess. Normally it takes me about 2/3 of a box to get through a cake of boursin, which works out to about 1300 calories; still, pretty hefty for a snack.

Lucky for me I have the natural metabolism of a hummingbird on crack. 🙂
