They&#8217;re basically elegant Ritz Cracker sandwiches with classy canned spray cheese in the middle.  According to its box, each individually wrapped cracker sandwich is made with real cheese and five grams of whole grain.<\/p>\n<p>The Ritz Crackers that Chinese fingercuff the cheese filling had that familiar buttery Ritz taste.  The Four Cheese one had the sharper flavor of the two and on my ritzy scale of 1-10, with 10 being fine diamonds and 1 being shards of a broken glass window, the Four Cheese Crackerfuls was probably a 5 rating or a plastic silver ring with a clear plastic gem won from accumulating 25 prize tickets at an arcade.  As for the Classic Cheddar, it tasted like a Kraft Handi-Snack and on my ritzy scale it was a 4 rating or a  plastic neon colored ring with a clear plastic gem that comes delivered in a plastic egg from a 25 cent machine outside of a grocery store.<\/p>\n<p>While I felt both weren&#8217;t very fancy, I also thought they weren&#8217;t bad.  The combination of the buttery Ritz crackers and the soft cheese paste was pleasant, but I think one would get more flavor by purchasing some fancy cheese that doesn&#8217;t come in individually wrapped slices and putting it on top of a Ritz cracker.  Although I believe that would degrade the cheese.<\/p>\n<p>Something I really didn&#8217;t enjoy about the Crackerfuls was the long Ritz Cracker, which was extremely fragile.  Because they were even more delicate than normal round Ritz Crackers, I was forced to use a plate since I lack the white beard to catch the crumbs. <\/p>\n<p>Another thing I didn&#8217;t like about the Ritz Crackerfuls was its name.  Now I don&#8217;t have an English degree&#8230; <\/p>\n<p>Oh wait.  I do.<\/p>\n<p>So it&#8217;s all right for me to say I found its name to be confusing because it&#8217;s not filled with crackers, it&#8217;s filled with cheese.  So shouldn&#8217;t it be named Cheesefuls?  <\/p>\n<p>Now if two layers of cheese were Chinese fingercuffing a Ritz Cracker then it would be Crackerfuls.  But it still wouldn&#8217;t be very fancy.<\/p>\n<p><small>(Nutrition Facts &#8211; 1 package &#8211; <b>Classic Cheddar<\/b> &#8211; 130 calories, 7 grams of fat, 2 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 1.5 grams of polyunsaturated fat, 2.5 grams of monounsaturated fat, 230 milligrams of sodium, 17 grams of carbohydrates, 3 grams of fiber, 3 grams of sugar, 2 grams of protein, 6% calcium and 4% iron. <b>Four Cheese<\/b> &#8211; 130 calories, 7 grams of fat, 2 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 1.5 grams of polyunsaturated fat, 2.5 grams of monounsaturated fat, 220 milligrams of sodium, 17 grams of carbohydrates, 3 grams of fiber, 3 grams of sugar, 2 grams of protein, 6% calcium and 4% iron.)<\/small><\/p>\n<p><b>Item:<\/b> Ritz Crackerfuls (Classic Cheddar and Four Cheese)<br \/>\n<b>Price:<\/b>  $3.18 each<br \/>\n<b>Size:<\/b>  6 pack<br \/>\n<b>Purchased at:<\/b>  Walmart<br \/>\n<b>Rating:<\/b> 6 out of 10 (Classic Cheddar)<br \/>\n<b>Rating:<\/b> 6 out of 10 (Four Cheese)<br \/>\n<b>Pros:<\/b>  Pleasant tasting.
