Dried cheese snacks are all the rage these days. I feel like I see more dried out cheese snacks showing up on store shelves all the time. That's good news for us low carbers. Easier to find low carb snacks are always a win. I only wish that there was more variety in what was out there for us. Well, folks I am pleased to share of a great new little company that is doing something a little different with their approach to these snacks.
Cat Island Cookie & Cracker Co. has launched some new cheese base snacks that I was lucky enough to try and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. First off, I might classify these differently then just dried out cheese. Its almost closer to a cheese based cookie/cracker. The carbs are still really low but may be a bit higher then something like a Moon cheese. However the flavor and texture in these are complete unique and different. Crispy and light they make for a wonderful snack or lunch side.
The Zesty Cheddar Bites were super yummy and had a great savory taste to them. Light and buttery like a biscuit with a slight hint of spice. I could easily eat a box of these without thinking twice. But the real winner here is Spicy Asiago Wafers. These like their counterpart had a similar consistency and buttery taste, but the Asiago has such a more prominent flavor. And the spice in these is a bit stronger too. By no means were they too spicy or hot but just right for some great flavor. These were my favorite by far. Great taste and never too salty like some others.
I would absolutely go back to these as a snacks. They seem like a great item to pair with some wine for a snack or even use at a party. They are affordable, delicious, and they are not to hard to find. I even saw that you can even order on Amazon.
