Well&Truly is expanding its lineup of better-for-you snacks with the debut of new Cheezy Thins.
According to the brand, Well&Truly's new Cheezy Thins contains 30% less fat than traditional cheese crackers, making them a healthier snack option. The crackers are oven-baked and are made with 45% cheddar and gouda, which still gives them that deliciously cheesy taste and crispy texture. The crackers also contain no added sugar and serve as a source of protein. As a spokesperson for Well&Truly noted in a recent press release, "Cheezy Thins give shoppers the cheesy crunch they love, but made with real cheese, free-from credentials and a lighter profile."
The debut flavor for the Cheezy Thins lineup is Jalapeño, Cheddar & Gouda, which pairs a distinctive cheesy flavor with just a hint of mild chilli.
