Fruity, nutty crackers

Arlene Kaufman fell in love with some dried fruit and nut crackers in Canada and couldn't find them in the States, so decided to make them herself. The result: Karma Krisps, developed at the very local Enterprise Center. Our fave? The orange, cranberry, pistachio - nice alone or with a smear of cream cheese.

Karma Krisps, $7.99, Weavers Way Co-op, 559 Carpenter Lane; 8424 Germantown Ave.
