Welcome To Taste of States a place where we celebrate the weird and wonderful food of the United States of America. This can be everything from the snacks that are available for a limited time to the foods that are classic traditions at events such as Christmas and Thanksgiving! Each week we will explore the facts and the history surrounding a different food.

CHEEZ-IT PUFF’D CHEESE PIZZA

Today we are going to head for the snack aisle in the supermarket to take a look at something that was introduced in 2022.

Before we go any further, let’s have a look at what Cheez-It actually is for those who do not know. The bran was founded in 1921 and in that time it has had a handful of different owners with the most recent one being Kellanova (Sunshine Biscuits). They are a cheese cracker that people eat as a snack food!

At the beginning of 2022, it was announced that they were releasing a new style of cracker that was called Puff’d. The idea of the new version was to create a new experience for the public. Puff’d has a cheesy and crunchy outside layer and in the middle it is ‘puffy and airy’.

With this new version came a new flavour Cheez-It Puff’d Cheese Pizza Snacks. The snack is baked and flavoured with Cheddar Cheese and tomato. You can purchase them in a 5.75oz box. Each container has on average about six servings. Each serving is 150 calories and 9 grams of fat.

When you look online, they have a lot of positive reviews with people praising the flavour.
