Was wondering if anyone uses these!! We trust Keebler for their labeling but these make me nervous because of all the Peanutbutter varieties they make!!
For us.....I won't even let DD eat Oreos because they make a peanut butter filled one. I would not trust any filled crackers. That's just my opinion.
Have you seen mini ritz? This goes back quite a few years. Different company but once I bought those and there were a few mini ritz with peanut butter sandwiched in them that should have been in a different box. Needless to say....I stopped buying any Ritz crackers and that is when I switched to Keebler crackers.
If the kids want cheese and crackers I just put my own cheese in them and forget convenience.
We haven't tried them. For a few years we used the Ritz Four Cheese sandwich crackers until they came out with a PB variety. I miss having the convenience.
We have used them. Reluctantly-- but-- there are times when the convenience is essential, and we've never been burned by Keebler-- something that I absolutely cannot state about that company that makes Ritz.

The mini cheese Ritz crackers are what I suspect sensitized my DD to peanut.

My hands broke out in hives just from handling those mini cheese Ritz crackers - they're most definitely highly contaminated. <sigh>
I've always trusted Keebler labeling, but I just can't bring myself to do the cheese sandwich crackers even though they read (and most likely are) safe.
I am sure I remember the mini ritz cheese crackers to have a peanut warning on them, or peanut in the ingredient list.

They did list peanut at the time my daughter ate them 11 years ago (pre peanut allergy diagnosis; she never reacted to the crackers) and now they carry a may contain/shared line warning.
I could never bring myself to buy the Keebler cheese-filled crackers, even though I trust their labeling. Part of me knew they were safe, the other part felt they couldn't be. And they were so unnecessary that it was never that big a conflict--I just didn't buy them.After DS's desensitization, I bought them once. Again, just so unnecessary that I just have not bought them again.
My DD has eaten these for YEARS. I trust their labeling. It's one of our go to snacks at home and in her snack box at school.
Great to know!!!
