Aged Cheddar

People really seem to lack the sense to realize that these are just cheese that’s been baked. That’s it and so simple so yes they’re hard and crunchy and yess they are a bit pricey but it’s literally cheese so the cost is actually making sense. They have no other ingredients so they are keto and low carb and high protein. No they’re not stale at all and yes they’re great quality

This is not what a grilled cheese tastes like. This tasted like straight parmigian cheese. The cheddar flavored ones were good though

Okay, last month I got on the scale and realized I was pushing 260 pounds. Not bad if you are a linebacker, I guess, but I'm five foot one...in heels. I'm also 61, female, and an emotional binge-eater. None of these are pluses in weight loss. My sons are doing keto and having great success, so I figured I'd go that route. Problem is, I have a job as a freelance editor (working from home) and there might as well be a written requirement for grazing while whipping a manuscript into shape. Other problem...I binge when I'm stressed or emotional. Not like we have anything to be stressed or emotional about these days, eh? So figuring that I'm going to eat a certain amount of junk food no matter what, I look for keto/Atkins-type stuff. Atkins for the candy/cookie type junk (I've already left reviews on a couple of those products), and SOMETHING ELSE for the salty stuff. I settle on this. Why? I stumbled across it while doing a search on "keto snacks." I love cheese; I'm pretty much a cheese-a-holic. So I figure anything with cheese as the only ingredient is worth a try. Okay, what I get is a box a little taller than a big can of Planters mixed nuts, and almost as thick. I'm thinking the box is a little smallish. Then I pull out a package. This is a ten-pack, meaning ten packages with two bars in each package. One package = one serving. The packages are about the length of an iPhone XR or 12, but narrower, maybe an inch and a half wide. They weigh next to nothing--each packet is less than one ounce. All these do not make me smile. Opening the package, I see something like a small, rectangular, hardened rice cake. Two of them. Then I bite into one. The crunch is loud enough to register on a Geiger counter, I'm pretty sure. These suckers are LOUD. It's hard to describe the flavor of the thing. It's definitely cheesy, but not like the mild American cheese most people eat. I'm into the bolder flavors, like Tillamook. "Just the Cheese" is aggressively, militantly, radically cheesy. I mean, it's like you're tasting it even before you eat it, and still tasting it after you eat it. The flavor is really strong. And it's cheese. Don't let anyone convince you otherwise. It's just so strong that the first bite can throw you off. The second bite is easier. It's FILLING. You won't want more than one packet of these at a time. This is good. Less than one carb--this is better. High fat (12 grams) and 8 grams of protein. So I'm hooked. I looked at a lot of reviews for this product and it looks like a lot of people hate it. Maybe they don't have the same relationship with cheese that I do. To each his own. To address the last concern, yes, it's pricey. It comes out to between $1.90-2.00 per package. But I figure anything low carb (you can't get much lower than <1), that fills you up on 150 calories, and that tastes like this is a win-win situation. You get ten servings, which will fill you up enough that you're guaranteed not to binge, so you won't eat more than a pack a day. The good thing is that except for the days I fast, I have a snack like this one and that's all I need between meals. I'm not hungry. Heck, I could almost use this as a meal substitute. And I've dropped nine pounds in three weeks. I'm happy.

So I first want to state that I love this! They taste exactly how I would want a cheese crisp snack to taste. I love the texture, the crunch, the taste. Overall A+ for the actual quality. Now why only 3 stars? Well it's extremely expensive! For the price point, I would expect them to last much longer. If I'm going to be paying over $15, I would expect them to stretch further. I do understand that not taking shortcuts and getting quality ingredients is expensive (and note, the ingredient list is VERY short, which is great), but it's just a touch too expensive for an item that I would want to be purchasing on a regular basis.

OK...I love cheese and saw these on Shark Tank. It took me all of 5 minutes to order them. Got to say I'm a tad disappointed. Much harder than I would like and your mouth is left with a salty aftertaste. Too much salt. But beyond that...they're good. This product is worth a $1 a pack...any price higher is too much.. I know the Shark Tank guys really pushed this man to raise his prices....I think this will be a big mistake overall. There won't be much repeat business if priced too high.

These are great to snack on or crumbled on popcorn, salads or anything else that would taste great with a crunch of cheddar. Great value for the amount you get in the jar.

These taste like petrified American "cheese". Sort of like something you'd scrape from the bottom of your toaster oven. I don't get it. Hard as rocks, oily. Somewhat sour. Better than starvation, but pretty bad. C'mon, people who made these!

Love these cheese snacks. The flavor is amazing.
