Cheese crackers are savory, bite-sized snacks made from ingredients like wheat flour, cheese, butter, and seasonings. Originating from Western cuisine, these crackers are popular as a quick snack or appetizer. Their crispy texture and rich flavor come from the sharpness of real cheese and the buttery base, making them satisfying and versatile. While cheese crackers provide some protein and calcium from the cheese, they are also high in refined carbohydrates, fats, and sodium, which may not make them ideal for frequent consumption. Store-bought versions often include preservatives and artificial flavorings, while homemade recipes allow for cleaner ingredients. Enjoy them in moderation as part of a balanced diet, pairing them with fresh vegetables or fruits to round out the snack.
