Ritz crackers are a popular snack food originating from the United States, first introduced by Nabisco in 1934. Known for their buttery flavor and flaky texture, Ritz are made primarily from enriched wheat flour, vegetable oil, sugar, and salt, with leavening agents added for their light consistency. They are often enjoyed plain, as a base for toppings like cheese or spreads, or incorporated into recipes. Ritz crackers are low in fiber and protein but relatively high in refined carbohydrates and sodium, which are factors to consider for those monitoring their diet. While they provide a quick energy boost, they lack significant nutrients for long-term health benefits. Their enticing taste and versatility make them a favorite, though they are best consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
