Since then, Nabisco has been pumping out new Wheat Thins flavors at a pace equal to the rate Michelle Duggar pumps out new babies from her bountiful womb.  One of the latest additions to the Nabisco snack family is the Lightly Cinnamon Wheat Thins.<\/p>\n<p>Cinnamon seems like a logical sweet flavor for Wheat Thins to dip their whole grain toes in because, honestly, I don&#8217;t think the world is ready for the greatness that could be found in Frosted Wheat Thins, Chocolate Wheat Thins or Frosted Chocolate Wheat Thins.  Personally, I know I wouldn&#8217;t be able to handle that greatness, and if they ever did make any of those I would eat so much of it that they could no longer call it &#8220;Wheat Thins,&#8221; since it would cause me to become the opposite of thin.<\/p>\n<p>Lightly Cinnamon Wheat Thins come close to that greatness because they are quite delicious, but I don&#8217;t have the urge to buy out the supply in every single store within a 20 mile radius, like I probably would with Frosted Chocolate Wheat Thins.  At first, I thought the cinnamon flavor was a little too light, but then remembered the name of the product and kept chomping along.  Complaining about the light cinnamon flavor is hard when on the front of the box it says in nice big letters, &#8220;Lightly Cinnamon.&#8221;  It&#8217;s like getting angry at Fatburger for making me fat through the consumption of burgers.<\/p>\n<p>The more I ate the Lightly Cinnamon Wheat Thins, the more I thought it had the right amount of cinnamon flavor.  There was just enough cinnamon to make you forget you&#8217;re eating Wheat Thins and getting five grams of whole grains, but not so much that you might think you&#8217;re snorting lines of cinnamon off of a hooker&#8217;s ass.  <\/p>\n<p>I have to say that this is one of my favorite Wheat Thins flavors, and much like I look forward to finding out how many more children Michelle Duggar can squirt out before menopause hits, I look forward to finding out how many more sweet Wheat Thins flavors Nabisco will pump out.<\/p>\n<p><small>(Nutrition Facts &#8211; 15 crackers &#8211; 140 calories, 5 grams of fat, 1 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 3 grams of polyunsaturated fat, 1 gram of monounsaturated fat, 0 milligrams of cholesterol, 125 milligrams of sodium, 50 milligrams of potassium, 21 grams of carbs, 1 gram of dietary fiber, 5 grams of sugar, 2 grams of protein, 0% Vitamin A, 2% Calcium, 0% Vitamin C, and 6% Iron.)<\/small><\/p>\n<p><b>Item:<\/b>  Nabisco Lightly Cinnamon Wheat Thins<br \/>\n<b>Price:<\/b>  $2.50 (on sale)<br \/>\n<b>Size:<\/b>  9.5 ounces<br \/>\n<b>Purchased at:<\/b>  Safeway<br \/>\n<b>Rating:<\/b>  9 out of 10<br \/>\n<b>Pros:<\/b>  Delicious.
