Gluten-Free Rice Crackers from Mexico
Thin, crispy crackers made primarily from rice flour and baked without gluten-containing ingredients. They fall under HTS 1905.90.90 as other bakers' wares, specifically baked rice paper-like products not classified as bread, pastry, or biscuits. These are distinct from plain rice paper due to added seasonings and flavorings.
