Cheez-it Snap’d are a thinner, crispier, and cheesier version of Cheez-it crackers. These snacks currently come in six flavors, so we wanted to know which flavor is the best.
Our Food Rankers team tasted and ranked all six Cheez-it Snap’d flavors, and here are the results, starting with number 6!
6. Cheez-It Snap’d Smoked Bacon Cheddar
When they say “smoked bacon”, they are serious. These have a very strong artificial smoked bacon flavor.
Bacon and cheddar are great together, but most of our reviewers could barely taste the cheese in this Bacon Cheddar flavor. That might work well for major bacon fans, but it’s a little disappointing for us. We expected more cheddar with the bacon.
While we all agree that Cheez-it Snap’d Bacon Cheddar snacks would be better with more cheddar to balance out the strong, artificial bacon taste, these aren’t bad.
Rating: 6/10
5. Cheez-It Snap’d Jalapeño Jack
This flavor is quite tasty but packs a lot of jalapeño heat. The spicy smell alone deterred a couple reviewers.
The taste is similar to biting into a cheese stuffed pepper, and the heat builds quickly. Our spice fanatics really like the flavor of these, jalapeños with notes of cheese. The main issue we have with the Jalapeño Jack variety is that even our hot pepper eaters can’t eat very many at once without their mouths burning.
For that reason, Cheez-It Snap’d Jalapeño Jack only makes it to the 5th spot on this list. It is good though if you enjoy jalapeños.
Rating: 6.8/10
4. Cheez-It Snap’d BBQ
This flavor surprised us, because it actually tastes like barbecue sauce and cheese. Most of us expected Cheez-It Snap’d BBQ crackers to be like a cracker version of BBQ chips, but they proved to be their own kind of BBQ that some of our reviewers passionately think deserves a higher spot in this ranking list of Cheez-It Snap’d flavors.
However, our BBQ chip fans were not as thrilled with this flavor, so the mixed reviews put the BBQ variety solidly at number 4.
Rating: 7.2/10
3. Cheez-It Snap’d Parmesan Ranch
Cheez-It Snap’d Parmesan Ranch crackers have a nice balance of parmesan and ranch flavors in a crispy snack. You can taste notes of zesty ranch and parmesan. One of our crew members said this variety might be her favorite! Every one put it somewhere in their top 3 flavors
Who doesn’t love parmesan and ranch?
If you love ranch, this is the flavor for you! They would also taste great with cheese dip 😉
Note: Cheez-It Snap’d Parmesan Ranch and Smoked Bacon Cheddar varieties are both limited edition flavors, so you may want to check the website to make sure they are still available.
Rating: 8.2/10
2. Cheez-It Snap’d Cheddar Sour Cream and Onion
These bring a very onion-forward sour cream and onion flavor with a bit of cheddar cheese thrown in. If you love sour cream and onion potato chips, Cheez-It Snap’d Cheddar Sour Cream And Onion will easily become your favorite snack. Two of our reviewers thought this one was the best, by a small margin.
An added bonus is they taste great with almost any kind of dip!

1. Cheez-It Snap’d Double Cheese Flavor
This is more like the classic cheddar Cheez-It flavor, and wow it is cheesy and delicious!
Imagine a crispier version of an original Cheez-It cracker dusted with an extra cheesy powder that amps up the cheese factor. It’s a blast of flavor in a good way! Once we started eating these, we easily polished off the entire bag (7.5 oz) in one sitting. They are seriously that addictingly crispy and cheesy!
Cheez-It Snap’d Double Cheese was in nearly everyone’s top two and made a couple top spots, giving it the highest overall rating of the Cheez-It Snap’d flavors.
It’s a cheese lover’s dream!
