Say Cheese

Say cheese.

The other day I watching the Food Network (I affectionately call it the porn channel) LOL. So, I am was watching a program about ‘dives and diners’ and one of the ‘dives’ was serving a cheese burger with an obscene amount of cheese on a hamburger so much so, that it created a cheese “curtain” on the outside of the bun and around the sandwich itself. If you like fried cheese or just cheese in general then you would have loved the way this burger looked with the cheese ‘curtain’.
Our product today is very much like the cheese curtain. Only this product has baked cheese formed into a ‘cracker’ the produce is called “just the cheese” produced by the Specialty Cheese Company. http://www.specialcheese.com/
For today I wanted to review a couple of products supplied by the company.

Pizza flavored cheese snack.

These crunchy little things have a great pizza flavor. I was very surprised by the robust pizza flavor. See below for the nutritional content. These are the perfect snack for the high-protein low carb dieters. I recommend these in place of popcorn or other movie snacks. In fact, the company has already thought of that and produced a “popcorn cheese” product that is great for a movie. (Although, don’t get caught sneaking it in the movies!) The pizza snack was a great product. I found it to be flavorful and just the right size for a gastric bypass patient. Definitely a ‘pouchready’ product.
The product is made from real Wisconsin cheese!

Cheese scale: 1 cheese wedge being low and 5 cheese wedges being the highest.

Popcorn flavored cheese snack.

Ok this is a really neat product. It has great packaging and would be exceptional for smuggling into the movies. This product is larger than the other product. It reminds me of a cheese cube you might see on a “fried cheese” order.
I liked this product because it was ‘cheese’ flavored cheese. (Umm, did that confuse anyone? It did me for a moment…but, it was really nice.)
