Pirate's Booty Aged White Cheddar Cheese Puffs, Gluten-Free, Kids Snacks, 4oz

These popped kernels are a delicious snack for both adults and children. I think it's a better choice of snack for maintaining a healthy heart.

I first ate this product from a small bag that came in a gift box, but have ordered larger bags on their own because they are so light and tasty. Highly recommend!

Kids favorite snack but lacks much nutrition

I've never heard of pirates booty, but I'm so glad it came across as a suggestion! It's a light snack, very tasty, and surprisingly filling. This is my first time trying pirates booty, so I'd like to tell you how it tastes...they are like mini puffed Cheetos but better! Nothing gets stuck in your teeth, and no cheesy fingers after eating them! They aren't as large as Cheetos, they are much smaller but they have a huge taste of white cheddar. I tasted one and said, "oh, wow, that's good", my husband had one and said the same exact thing, and he doesn't like Cheetos. I looked at the ingredients and was surprised I could read and understand all the ingredients! That's also a first for me! I will definitely buy more!

I've bought them often. Inexpensive + great for when you feel like munching on a salty snack. They're healthier than most other salty snacks - Baked corn + rice, real cheese, no artificial colors, no preservatives, etc. Even sodium 100mg in 0.5 oz not awful IF I could eat such a small amount. Reality is I've actually finished the entire bag in 1 sitting (that's alot!). Ingredient list says "natural" and "organic", and although not a health food it's not as terrible as most bagged snacking foods. But again I never can eat just the small recommended portion size; 1 oz. (very small amount if you're hungry or watching TV + wanting to snack) has 190 mg Sodium. And since I usually eat the entire 10 oz. bag (not that much - I finish it in less than 15-30 mins.) the 1900 mg sodium I consume from 1 10 oz. bag is what I try to limit my sodium to for entire day :( (2 Gm Na diet is considered low Sodium diet for those with High blood pressure + other cardiac or other *eg. swelling) diseases sodium aggravates. Comparatively speaking (other bagged salty, greasy or high fat snacks) Pirates Booty Cheddar Puffs is a very healthy snack - But unhealthy compared to other things (carrots, celery, unsalted nuts, raisins, etc.) we could snack on. You decide - Other than few bags that were dry + stale, before expiration date, I'm kinda addicted to them (crave them) when I want a salty or cheesy snack. I'm thin and not a junk food type of person but * Usually they taste so good (addictive) I eat far more than I planned. Buy 2 bags - I do now. * "usually" means when not stale tasting - A few bags I bought this year were. IDK why? Always before expiration date - Maybe a small opening in bag caused it? Overall I should say I crave + love them :) I'm going to buy 2 more bags right now. I'd buy more but I know I can't stop myself when eating them to finish all I have - lol. And I really do try my best to eat mostly the healthiest foods available - Again for a treat/snack these are healthier than most other bagged salty, crispy, crunchy snacks I've had in my life. If they offered a low sodium, or no sodium, type, like many potato chip brands now do, I would be thrilled.

I regret buying this because it is too good. I am not joking about that either I usually have very good self control when it comes to eats and snacks but these are like crack. They have the taste of cheetos puffs but its even better. The soft but slight crunch is very pleasing and they just keep wanting you to eat more and more. I opened a bag just to snack a little and by the time I realized it my hand was hitting the bottom of the bag and I felt terrible lol. They just hit some wiring in your brain and it makes it hard to control. So be warned if you buy them you'll not want to stop eating them. They call to you in that big box and its hard to resist the temptation. (Originally bought for the kids and kids love them but I love them more hehehehe)

Great surprise for college kiddos. Grab and go snack.

Here’s an idea: Add some chipotle pepper powder to your recipe, or some jalapeño. It would amp up the flavor which is fairly mild. Of course, if you like mild flavors, you’ll adore this product as it has a great texture and arrives in perfect, fresh condition. As for me, I like more intense flavors. I don’t see myself craving these. Why? Between the light, crunchy texture, and the lack of strong flavors, there are other things I would prefer to eat. A lot of children might like them, and they are relatively healthy snack.

Delicious!!!

Received a stale bag of pirates booty.
