With its upcoming sponsorship of the Cheez-It Citrus Bowl on December 31, 2024, Cheez-It has teamed up with Kordell Beckham to launch the exclusive new Kordeezy Fantacheezy pack.
The Citrus Bowl is one of the oldest college football bowl games in the country, so it makes sense for Cheez-It to team up with a football family for the occasion. In this case, Cheez-It has tapped the Love Island USA season six winner and brother of NFL player Odell Beckham Junior, Kordell Beckham, to dream up a new flavor combination. Beckham has come up with the duo of Cheez-It Extra Toasty Cheddar Jack and Cheez-It Smoked Cheddar crackers, which has officially been dubbed The Kordeezy Fantacheezy. Sold together in one box, The Kordeezy Fantacheezy will be available for sale on CheezIt.com right after the game.
