This is a compensated review by BlogHer and Ritz.
I’ve mentioned before that I could seriously make a meal out of cheese and crackers (and a little fruit thrown in for good measure) and I often do that for lunch. I think a lot of women could get by on less food if we didn’t have our hubbies to worry about. Cheese and crackers definitely won’t cut it for my man, but when left to my own wishes, I will choose a lunch of cheese and crackers many times.
Last year, I got a chance to try out Ritz Crackerfuls and really enjoyed them and this year, they have even more flavors, like Cheddar Cheese and Bacon. YUM, could that combo be any better? I received a few sample packs in the mail and have been munching away. 
These are great for grabbing on the go. Each one is individually wrapped in cellophane to keep it fresh and sometimes when I’m on the way to the gym, I just need something to tide me over until I can get a real meal. These will do the trick and keep those hunger pangs at bay!
My days aren’t always predictable and can vary from day to day, from gym time to running errands and grocery shopping, to antiques browsing and yardsaling, so I spend a good bit of time on the run.
Each is made with 6 grams of whole grains and real cheese, so you can feel good about what you are eating and know that it is substantial enough to keep you going until you have time for your next meal.
I try not to snack a whole lot in between meals, but there are times I don’t have time to really sit down and eat, so that’s when one of these generously sized Crackerfuls will come in handy. Grab and go, easy and fast in the car and on the run. That’s where I am many days and I imagine you are too.
So, tell me what you do to tide you over between meals? What sort of things do you grab on the go to satisfy your hunger when you really don’t have time for a substantial lunch?
Up for grabs will be a $100 Visa gift card to one lucky winner! How fun is that? All you have to do is leave a comment to be eligible.

Whether you are running errands or running to meetings, Crackerfuls are the perfect snack to keep you satisfied. Each is made with 6 grams of whole grains and real cheese, so you can feel good about what you are eating and know that it is substantial enough to keep you going until you have time for your next meal. Also, since each is individually wrapped it is perfect to just throw in your bag and go.
My go-to between meal snack is popcorn. Any kind – I love it!
Soda crackers and butter
Crackerfuls are so yummy and very filling. Lately, I’ve been staying full with fresh veggies and fruit since everything is in season right now.
The Classic Cheddar crackers is also one of my mainstays. Other times a bowl of cottage cheese with fresh tomato slices is what I’ll fix when alone and the hunger cravings hit. Or, a bowl of no-yolk ribbon noodles and canned whole stewed tomatoes. Mmmmmm. I can think of three things I could use the Visa card on. Crossing my fingers, toes and eyes for a win.:O) Thanks for the opportunity!
I usually grab a handful of crackers or a piece of fruit to tide me over!
Hi Sweetie…
Oh thank you for the great share. I love all ritz crackers. I usually keep some on hand
at work in my desk, being a diabetic I need a little snack in the afternoon, and I have
my ritz with a little bit of peanut butter. It doesn’t get any better than that.
Fruit ofcourse is in season now, and like everyone else, I love to throw my grapes in the
freezer, they are so yummy that way. When I come home from the store, I package them
up in small freezer baggies, and individual serving, grab one in the morning on my way
to work, and midmorning I have another great snack. Frozen they taste delish. Especially
when it is so hot right now.
Thanks for the wonderful opportunity to win such a GREAT prize.
Country hugs sweetie…Sherry
I cant wait to try those, they look wonderful. I’m with you cheese and crackers makes a great meal. Thanks for the give a way!
I would say fruit or Kashi bars. But also those little Ghirardelli chocolate squares!
celery and peanut butter or cheese, ham and crackers!
Fruit!
Rhonda, Love all Nabisco crackers….great snack and helps makes a nice lunch with chicken or tuna salad.
My hubby consumes boxes of Ritz crackers and I agree that I would also eat a lot less if not for meal planning with hubby 🙂
If I’m on the go, I usually grab a granola bar…BUT I just tried a Crackerful this past week on my way home from a trip, and will now add them to my on-the-go menu! 🙂
Haven’t tried these yet, but they do look yummy. Lately, I’ve been on a cherry tomato/grape tomato kick…I guess because it’s summer and they are so fresh this time of year. I put some in ziplock baggy and bring them to the office. I do the same thing with grapes alot also.
I try for the healthy out-the-door snack and reach for a banana whenever I can….they’re not too messy when you have to eat something in the car. Thanks so much for the chance at this generous give away!
Well I’m 7 1/2 months pregnant so when I need something to tide me over between meals…I eat another meal: )
OMG….I love Crackerfuls!! I usually have them with a O point Progresso soup for lunch, and they fill me up for just 3 WW points.
love cheese and crackers!!!
I love ritz with cheese! I grew up on that ..but my latest snack on the go is poptarts.
I grab crackers too, any kind I just love crackers, and a apple with it makes a meal, thanks Barbara
