Laresa, my mom made some homemade ones last Christmas, so maybe you could find a recipe that's corn syrup free and make your own? They were quite tasty (especially when we made them unhealthy again by turning them into smores...), though not as crunchy as the store ones.
Graham crackers and milk is one of my favorite snacks. I can easily down an entire sleeve of them that way. Which means it's a good thing that I rarely buy Gareth crackers anymore (because of course he was my only excuse to buy them). I figure he can snack on fruit, and so can I!
I was once testified to in a grocery store line that my friend knows that there is a loving God because graham crackers exist. To that, I can still only say, "Amen, Brother!"
Ha ha, that's hilarious. I feel like there are a lot of things like that, where you forget just how good it is until you eat one again. For me, Ritz crackers are like that. I rarely think, "I want Ritz crackers..." but whenever I eat one I can't stop eating more!!
The last few times I have have a graham cracker it was because a friend or VT companion's little preschooler was sharing with me. And each time I think 1) Wow, that is better than I remember,! and 2) Wow, I am a lot more hungry than I realized! But of course, the little preschooler is usually done sharing after a bite. And I spend the rest of the visit wondering why Jeff & I don't buy them, too.

I feel the same!! Add cream cheese frosting, and they're especially good. :)
I am in agony because I can't find any not made with corn syrup! I mean, who wants to swallow dextrose every time they want one measly graham cracker!

I had some graham crackers the other day and was surprised too. :)
