For the first time ever, Cheez-It is introducing its own cheesy cracker merch shop and with it, limited-time Cheez-It flavors.
On the store, fans will find a variety of themed merch and apparel, including everything from snack-stashing fanny packs to cozy fleece blankets, hoodies and aprons. The one-stop-shop for fans of the brand goes by the name Cheez-It HQ and as a D2C site, it promises to "bring future food innovations to market faster than ever before, while also collecting feedback from our consumers in real-time."
To kick off the launch of the new online destination, the brand is introducing the Cheez-It Extra Toasty Superfan 4-Pack for just a short period of time. It pairs the original Cheez-It Extra Toasty with three in-demand varieties: Extra Cheesy, Extra Spicy and Cheddar Jack.
