These things ROCK!  I love them and they have a wide surface area for filling them up to the brim with yummy vegetables and spread thinly with hummus.  They are loaded with Fiber, whole grains, and olnly 100 calories.  Six to a package for only about $2.99.  Once I left one in the oven a bit too long and it got hard, so I broke it up into "chips" and those were awesome too!!!!

They are made by Bestlife.  www.flatoutbread.com

OTher good things:  Made with flax, 0 trans fat, 8 grams fiber, lowish on carbs.  They come in a few other flavors like tomato as well.

I used my for chips, too!  I have the italian herb ones.

I tried these last week and was AMAZED.  Seriuosly, I wasn't expecting much, but since they were all out of my english muffins, and needed another "bread-y" food (I swear  I live off of carbs!), I thought "hey why not."

Here is an AMAZING way to make cinnamon chips.... sooo good!

Cut the wrap into pieces, spread with a light layer of smart balance light, sprinkle on spenda and cinnamon, and pop into the toaster over for a few minutes.  If you do it just right, they get crispy enough to be chips, yet they still have substance, and you can actually stilll chew them.

I'm trekking to the store again today, and I'm definately getting more!  :)

I agree- these wraps are awesome! I can't get enough of the Italian herb ones.  Spread a little tomato puree on them and warm it up in the microwave - incredible.  Those cinnamon chips sound great too. 
the tomato & original ones are 90 calories [=
They're yummy! The only problem is they have a lot of salt in them... but then all bread does.

I wish they were only $2.99 in my area Cry.  As far as the sodium level goes--it is about standard -- drink more water...

I roll mine up in a dish cloth and stick it in the microwave for about 15 secs -- warms it up nicely without making it crispy. 

SUpper low cal and yummy:) how ever i thought the taste was a bit weird..and diety it might be the type i got tho?So i use La tortilla wraps/tortillas...they taste exactly like normal ones!
love them as wraps, or i put sauce and cheese on them for a pizza
I like the way they get when I have them in the oven for a couple minutes.  Right out of the bag they taste a bit doughy, but warm and slightly crisped they are fabulous.  I think the thing I love about them the most is their surface area!  Compared to a 100 cal thomas english muffin, you can really load up the lettuce or sprouts and tomato along with your serving of meat or veggie burger.  I fold them over  like a quesadilla vs as a rollup.  So glad I found these, looks like many of you were already onto them.  I sent an email to Hungry Girl about these too, as I had not seen any info on them in her website.
these are a fav of mine as well.  I use them to make little healthy pizzas...they are fabulous!  I've also made the cinnamon crisps as well and those were pretty tastey too!! - Cricket

Another county heard from:  We have some excellent brands here in New England, and my favorite is the oat bran plus flax seed variety.  I feel so virtuous when I eat something so healthy! yuch-yuch! There's a protein variety, high in soy, too.  And even my school cafeteria has carried several varieties--tomatoe, spinach, herb, whole wheat-- as one of the 8-9 bread choices for sandwiches for at least 7 years.  You can't go wrong with anything you do with them. 

Craving a sweet?  Spread on All-fruit jam and maybe a smidge of your favorite nut butter (almond, peanut, cashew--it's all good, especially at a 2 t-1T limit). Roll it tight, like a jelly roll.  Won't kill you to eat it all, or slice it like sushi for cookie-sized bites.

I love these things too. If you like these you should try pita shells. They are the best bread shell I have ever had!! Try putting a little marinara or spehetti sauce in in and top it off with a little 2% cheese and pop it in the microwave for 25 sec. and it tastes better than a hot pocket but with only 160-200 calories, depending how much cheese you use!
I absolutely love them!  My local grocery stores only carry the Kidz kind, which I'm supposing are smaller?  But they're only 60 cals and whole grain, it's amazing.  I love making pizzas out of them.
Yeah, these things are awesome, I use the italian and herb ones and make pizzas in the oven with them.  Very low cal pizza crust...amazing stuff

I just found them last week myself, they really are a great alternative to regular wraps.  The shape works much better and the sun dried tomato have great taste.  I spread some hummus, spinach and other veggies,  and a little low fat feta for a great lunch wrap.

I have to try the pizza idea, sounds good!
