It has real cheddar cheese made with cultured milk, salt, enzymes and annatto extract color.  It also has real bacon in the form of rendered bacon fat and bacon bits that have been cured with water, salt, sugar, sodium phosphates, sodium ascorbate and sodium nitrate.  <\/p>\n<p>Mmm&#8230;You can totally read the realness.<\/p>\n<p>You know what else this cheese cracker sandwich has?  Green tea and rosemary extracts.  No fo&#8217; realsies.  Although I don&#8217;t taste either of them.  I&#8217;d show you the ingredients list to prove it, but you would quickly get bored by its vastness or due to the number of ingredients that end with -ate, you would suffer PTSD (Periodic Table Studying Disorder) and relive the horrors of memorizing chemical compounds in your high school and college chemistry classes.<\/p>\n<p><center><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/images\/crackerfulsbacon2.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<p>The Ritz Crackerfuls Cheddar Cheese &#038; Bacon has a smokiness to it, but I&#8217;m not sure if it&#8217;s from the cheese, the bacon, both or from one of the ingredients that end with -ate.  Well, whatever creates that smoky flavor, it makes this cheese cracker sandwich slightly more enjoyable than the original flavors of Crackerfuls.  The bacon bits are large enough to be seen and provide a different kind of crunch than the cracker, so if you&#8217;re one of those mouthy-feely eaters you might get a kick from the almost crystalline-like crunch.<\/p>\n<p>Just like the original Crackerfuls, this latest variety is also as fragile as a mofo.  It&#8217;s a crumb creator, so if you don&#8217;t have manners, I&#8217;d suggest getting some and pulling out a plate to eat these.<\/p>\n<p><small>(Nutrition Facts &#8211; 1 Crackerful &#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, 5 milligrams of cholesterol, 250 milligrams of sodium, 35 milligrams of potassium, 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 Cheddar Cheese &#038; Bacon<br \/>\n<b>Price:<\/b> $3.19<br \/>\n<b>Size:<\/b> 6 pack<br \/>\n<b>Purchased at:<\/b> Festival Foods (Wisconsin)<br \/>\n<b>Rating:<\/b> 6 out of 10<br \/>\n<b>Pros:<\/b> Decent smoky flavor.
