    * Love these protein puffs. They are as close to real puffs as you will get without the carbs. May be better than puffs made with flour or corn because they are crunchier. Flavor is great. Would give it 5 stars if the package was bigger for the price, but they were good enough I bought a bunch of the other flavors.

    * I have already written reviews for Shrewd Food puffs, but they deserve a bit more praise! I LOVE THESE! I put them on salads (usually crushed up a bit), in soups (where they stay crunchy!) and I snack on them out of the bag. YUM! The Parmesan Garlic croutons (not in the list below, how odd) are my faves with Brick Oven Pizza puffs following close behind. They really have a wonderful pizza flavor! The only flavor I tried that I did not care for was the Sour Cream and Onion. Just did not have a strong enough taste for me. I made a comment about it and Shrewd Food contacted me and immediately replaced them with another flavor! So, not only do they have a great product, but they offer great customer service too!

    I have not done so as yet, but I am planning to use them as a coating for "oven-fried" (air fried, actually) chicken or fish. I bet they will be outstanding! Can't wait to try it (I've been too busy eating them as is)!

    * I don't mind protein puffs, and love the chocolate coated ones from this company. I've had savory puffs from another company that I also enjoyed. Unfortunately, I have to agree with reviews on the flavor of this (nacho) puff. Weird, too salty, and just not good. I'm tempted to try another flavor but not sure if I should give it another shot.

    * These did not satisfy. Weird texture, weird flavor, super weird mouth-feel and lingering film. These taste like a low calorie protein puff, with very few redeeming qualities, and the powder flavoring isn't enough to save them from tasting like something you've been prescribed to eat, rather than something you'd enjoy.

    There are much better alternatives out there for better-for-you savory snacking. Skip these.

    * I have tried several flavors of Shrewd Food protein puffs and really enjoy them. They have the texture of puffy Cheetos. Brick Oven Pizza is my favorite savory flavor and the Strawberry one is my favorite sweet flavor. Reminds me of Captain Crunch Berries:) I would recommend them however I did not care for the Sriracha Cheddar or Sour Cream and Onion.

    * This review is for the sour cream & onion flavor. I still have a bag of the Brickoven Pizza flavor I haven't tried yet.

    Pros: The puffs are very crunchy The mouth-feel is better than some other brands I've tried. Very low in carbs (only 2g) At least they're edible

    Cons: Almost no detectable flavor A very small portioned bag, only 0.74 oz

    * I was looking for something to satisfy my occasional 'Cheeto' cravings and this may do it. The macros are wonderful. The flavor is... distinct; pungent. Crunchy is an understatement when it comes to the texture, the portion sizes are good because if there were any more then the roof of my mouth would be obliterated. All in all they are decent and I may order again or try other flavors in the future.

    * I don't usually order an item before there are a bunch of reviews, but I appreciate when you can try one bag of an item instead of buying a whole case with your fingers crossed.

    I thought these would probably be a knockoff of Moon Cheese, but they're really more like Planters Cheez Balls. The Sriracha Cheddar flavor is tasty (although it's not spicy at all, which was a little disappointing) and I like the texture, and I didn't notice a particularly weird aftertaste -- but maybe I'm just adjusted to low carb snack foods. I'm allergic to wheat, so I love that it's gluten-free.

    I wish it was higher fat and lower protein, personally, because I have a harder time hitting my fat macros than protein, but I'd buy more and try other flavors.

    * These are different. When I first start eating them I am amazed and love it but after a little while, they start tasting a bit odd. Not bad tasting but like you suddenly start thinking "this tastes healthy". Ha! If you try to eat "healthy" faux foods then you probably know what I mean. It's not bad and I will likely buy them again though. They are good and I like having something with a crunch.

    * I had the brickoven pizza flavour and found these to be rather odd-tasting; likely due to the protein powder used to make them. However, I am pleased that Netrition has the availability to purchase a single item rather than a case, so you can try something new without the added expense or potential waste.

Soon all you taste is nastiness and you feel like you cant swallow what's in your mouth. So glad I ordered just one bag as I had to throw this one out.

    * If you love Cheetos, but can't have them... these crisps are the next best thing. I've tried all three flavors and there isn't a bad one in the bunch. I couldn't even pick a favorite. The baked cheddar taste remarkably like Cheetos, as do the Sriracha Cheddar but have a bit more of a spicy punch (kinda like the Hot Cheetos). The pizza ones have a flavor all there own...not overly spicy, but equally good. All are deliciously crunchy with plenty of cheesy goodness and no aftertaste. Honestly, at only 90 calories a bag and 2 carbs...wow! For those watching carbs and calories, get ready to snack happy!

    * I'm always up for new low carb snacks, especially when they're salty/crunchy! I like that I can order one small bag at a time instead of buying the 16 bag package so I can determine if they're good or not. I ordered one bag of each flavor. So far, I've tried the Sriracha Cheddar and the Brickoven Pizza. Both flavors are good, but my preference is the Brickoven Pizza.
