Overview

Cheese Nips (originally stylized as "Cheese-Nips") is a discontinued small cheese-flavored cracker manufactured by Mondelez International under its brand, Nabisco. They were originally sold to compete against Sunshine Biscuits (now Kellogg's) Cheez-It crackers. Though similar in appearance to Cheez-It, Cheese Nips had a distinctly different flavor and texture.2

The story

Cheese Nips, originally stylized as "Cheese-Nips", were introduced in 1955. After the Kraft merger, they were known as "Kraft Cheese Nips".

However, on November 21, 2019, there was a recall on Cheese Nips due to plastic contamination.

As of 2020, Cheese Nips have since been discontinued according to a Nabisco representative. They are still sold in Canada by a brand named "Christie" (which is the Canadian counterpart of Nabisco, and also a subsidiary of Mondelēz International) as "Ritz Cheese Nibs" as of 2022, however.
