Cheez-It Review

My Dad told me a story a long time ago about how my Mom was in labor to have me, and he was sitting off to the side eating cheese crackers. My Mom of course said, "Put the cheese crackers down! Come help me!"

I think I was destined to like cheese crackers.

The trouble is, is that many types of cheese crackers are loaded with calories, and awful oils. I still have to watch my intake of cheese due to my lovely allergies. A little cheese to satisfy my craving goes a long way. 


Cheez-It gives the same taste as Cheese Nips or Cheez-Its, but has half the calories!  I really want to try out many of Fiber Gourmet's other snacks and products. They make sure their products have extra fiber added to them. They've been featured in Good Housekeeping and Woman's World.

What We Thought:
  
Daddy, Mica and I each tried a single bag. We all thought they were pretty good! 

Daddy did say, "Well they do taste healthier than other cheese crackers." I don't know if that's bad, or good. He says that with anything I make that's made to be healthier.

Mica gobbled them up in seconds. 


I couldn't tell a big difference in them in comparison to other crackers. I think it would be a great thing to have around for school lunches. Generally if I'm packing the kid's lunches I try and add something snack like in there.

My boys LOVE Cheez-It's and I love that these are lower in calories. I'm going to have to pick some of these up for them.

We buy cases of canned Australian cheese for cooking. Other than that, neither of us eat much cheese. Our kids liked it when they were home, though.
