cheez-it!!

2008.05.29
I helped put this product on the shelves! sort of : )

so bad for you, but so good...

I'm not much of a snack kind of person. I used to eat a lot of chips, crackers and candy up until high school but it kind of dropped off during my college years. The only reason I ate any snack kind of food in the last six years is because my ex was an avid snack eater. I don't know when there was a time that he didn't have his hand in a bag of chips or crackers. Besides him, I don't think I've known anyone who snacked that much, actually.

Anyway, I only ate chips and stuff when I was around him. After I moved back home I rarely bought myself any of that kind of food. It was weird, I just never thought of eating snacks or even buying them when I was at home but when I went to visit him I couldn't stop myself from snacking all the time.

Having said all that (and making this post a longer story than it needs to be) I saw this box of new Cheez-It Duos and I felt a need to purchase it as I had just recently participated in a survey about it. The survey was to try and see if this product idea would be something people would be interested in. Apparently they got enough positive responses that they're putting it on the shelves! This isn't the flavor combination I picked in the survey, though. I picked the sharp cheddar/parmesan combo but they didn't have any at the store I was at.

It's not bad, by the way, although I think the zesty queso flavored cheez-its overpower the white cheddar flavor too much so it just all tastes like zesty queso.

oldbabe Ok, I love to snack but I've found if I don't even go down the snack aisle and I don't buy any then I don't snack. I've even lost a few pounds (but need to go snackless for quite a while longer to lose enough).

At any rate...these look delicious and I have the urge to go to the store. I would if the gas to get there wasn't so darned expensive!!
