What You Should Know

A small sleeve of cheddar sandwich crackers you’d spot in the snack aisle, school lunchbox section, or the office pantry — ideal for packing on road trips or a quick movie-night bite. It feels nostalgic and indulgent: salty, cheesy, and highly convenient with a pronounced crunch. The crisp texture and shelf-stable cheese filling arise from refined flours, vegetable oils and processed cheese ingredients and additives, traits typical of highly processed NOVA 4 products.
