Michael Seasons Lite Cheese Curls

Michael Seasons Lite Cheese CurlsMichael Seasons Lite Cheese Curls are wheat free, gluten free, all natural and made with real cheese. My dilemma is - how do you rate the taste of cheese curls? What do you compare it to? I have only ever had Cheetos and the "no name" dollar store brand, so my frame of reference is limited.But my opinion is that the Michael Seasons Lite Cheese Curls were just - okay. The taste was very cheesy and if you eat the 'regular' cheese curls, then these are very different, with the regular ones being more of a Kraft cheese powder kind of taste. The size of the cheese curl was somewhere in between that of the 'regular' skinny cheese curls and thicker cheese puffs and the Michael Seasons ones are not as hard as the regular ones and instead have a cheese curl kind of softness to them.

'Organic' cornmeal is the first ingredient and from the gorgeous packaging to the organic ingredients, Michael Season's seems to try to be a bit more 'high brow' than the dollar store brand cheese curls. But let us now kid ourselves - this is a very processed snack. If it would save me a few cents on the price, then I would vote that you forgo the 'organic' ingredients. This is nowhere near what I would consider a 'natural' product in the end.

Michael Seasons Lite Cheese Curls provides 130 calories for a 1 cup serving size. There is also 4.5 grams of fat, which is 7% of the recommended daily amount, 0.5 grams of saturated fat which is 3% of the RDA, no trans fat, only 9% of the RDA for sodium (200 mg), 2 grams of protein and 20 grams total carbohydrates which includes 1 gram of sugars and 2 grams of fiber (7% of the RDA).

This cost $2.25 for a big 6 ounce bag. While I thought it was just okay, I suspect that people with a more sophisticated palate than mine may appreciate it a little better. A gluten free snack that I would buy over this one is Lundberg Rice Chips [read the review].
