Believe it or not, Cheez-Its celebrated their 105th birthday this week. They were first introduced back on March 31st of 1921.
A website tasted 12 different Cheez-It flavors, and ranked them from best to worst, and a LOT of people are fighting online over the results. Here’s the ranking they had:
1. White Cheddar
2. Smoked Cheddar
3. Original
4. Italian Four Cheese
5. Gluten Free Original
6. Whole Grain
7. Cheddar Jack
8. Buffalo Wing
9. Hot & Spicy
10. Smoked Gouda
11. Reduced Fat
12. Pepper Jack.
TheTakeout.com has the full rationale for the ranking. For some reason they left out some common flavors, like Extra Toasty.
Some people online say that Pepper Jack is their FAVORITE, and it seems crazy that the gluten-free ones came in FIFTH. Although, I will say the Reduced Fat ones are good, not because they’re healthier for you, it’s because I find the crunch and the cheesy flavor SHARPER and harder to stop eating than the Originals.
