FiberGourmet Lite Cheese Snacks, 6.85-Ounce Boxes
I ordered these in hopes that they would be close to cheez its as those are one of my favorite snacks. I have been on weight watchers so these intrigued me. I have to say that all though if I am starving and need a light snack in between that is not high in points I guess these can work – but they would not be my first choice. The taste is bland to me – and maybe if I had a light dip would be ok. But they tend to leave a dry after taste in my mouth
Beggars can not be choosy so when in a bind for a light snack and if I have nothing satisfying with low nutritional value..then I will grab these.

These snacks are great! They are delicious – the flavor is a little more subtle than Cheese-It’s Reduced Fat but it’s less of a salty flavor and the tasty cheese flavor is still there. Texture is good, they have a nice crunch to them that Cheese It’s don’t have. There is not any rankness to them – one of the things I dislike about Cheese Nips.
You get a generous portion per bag, the FiberGourmet site sells a smaller 50 cal bag that would be nice to see on Amazon (free shipping). There is a slight warm/burning sensation that my wife and I have noticed near the end of chewing them. My guess is that it’s due to the TBHQ or Red Pepper – I’m not sure what else would cause that. It’s not unpleasant – just different. Price is a little higher than I’d like for a snack like this but I would still rank these as a good value. Definately worth the 1 point (for those WW folks out there).
I’ve been averaging about 1 bag per day since my first shipment came 2 weeks ago. They’re definately great to have around for when you need a snack but don’t want something too high in cals / fatty.

I bought these to replace Cheez-Its, to be in compliance with a diet program I’m on. I’d grown pretty addicted to Cheez-Its, so didn’t have high hopes of these being a good replacement. BOY, WAS I WRONG — THESE ARE GREAT!! In fact, I love them WAY more than the Cheez-Its because these have a “heftier” feel when you bite into them, due to the fiber! They’re not just piffy air-filled…they feel more filling! And I love the cheese taste of these, along with the “bite” of heat, such as with cheese straws!
I’m going to buy these for my parents, who aren’t on a diet but who love Cheez-Its…they can use the extra fiber, and my guess is that they too will like these better! I’m SOOO glad that I found these!!!!

They are not as good as Cheeze-It’s but they are only 80 calories for a bag with a lot of Fiber, and the taste is pretty good.
