Hilo Life Low Carb Keto Friendly Snack Puffs Cheddar, 0.92 Oz, 12 Count

It would be hard to make a keto version of a cheeto, but you DID it... YAY4YOU! ...I LOVE them... They're much better than other brands/attempts... Please don't let some reviews dampen your feelings of success... Some of us KNOW what you went thru' to achieve the product you've achieved, and are so grateful... Hope they're offered again in the near future... Hope, hope, hope... LoC...

I was pretty skeptical when I ordered these since most keto snacks just don't match up taste or texture wise with their full carb versions. The flavor is good, but not the same as the well known brand of cheese puff. If you are familiar with the flavor of nutritional yeast, that is the dominant flavor. The package does list yeast extract as an ingredient, so I assume that is where the cheese-like flavor comes from. The texture is spot on. Like many others have written, they are expensive but I'd rather pay a little more for something that isn't going to destroy my diet.

Hilo Life has hands down the best keto products I've ever had... but the cheese puffs are a little underwhelming. The texture is a little off, but far closer to a normal cheese that I'm had before (Far better that those horrible Schoolyard ones). The problem for me is the flavor is really bland. Even the hot flavor, which was the biggest letdown for me. If they can just fix the blandness issue, these would be killer.Honestly though, all keto products generally have a seasoning problem. Like can you imagine if they could do something close to the Doritos Ranch seasoning... it would be amazing. Instead is always something really bland and tastes more like dehydrated sour cream. Hilo Life is probably the best at this with their other products though... so, definitely try them. The snack mixes and chips are very good. The pizza snack mix is hands down the best keto seasoning I've ever found.

Looking for a tasty Cheeto-like snack that wouldn't destroy my blood sugar, I found these. The flavor is fine, almost comparable to Cheetos. However, after eating one small package of them my teeth were gummed up with orange putty like gunk. My mouth looked and felt like it was coated with orange Play-Doh. Fortunately I was at home and could promptly brush my teeth. There's no way these things could/should be eaten in public where a toothbrush is not readily available. I threw the rest of these in the garbage and do not recommend them.

These are the closest I've had to keto or low-carb cheese puffs. They have an interesting flavor that strikes me as close to an almost "oniony" flavor. If you love the taste of Cheetos for example, you might like these but know, they don't taste like Cheetos. The crunch is better than expected and not far off from real cheese puffs. You get a fair amount in the bags so I found the quantity to be adequate.The bottom line here is this, there are very few keto or low-carb foods on the market that mimic the real product we're trying to replace. But, these cheese puffs are good and will satisfy most people's taste buds.

While these are keto friendly and yummy, they do not deliver on the “crunch” that some may be looking for. They are a softer texture. This is not a deal breaker for me and I was pleasantly surprised to find a lot of pieces in the bag and they are satisfying. However; beware of expiration dates! I received these 3 weeks before expiration date. They were gone before then, and I am sure they would still be fine a few weeks after…but I try to be aware of this when I am buying food products online.

These taste vaguely tomato-y… my mother described it as grilled cheese with tomato soup. Luckily she liked it, and I was able to pawn them off on her, but it was extremely disappointing after six months without cheetos… the texture was great, it’s just the taste that was Extremely Wrong. Fair warning for anyone else looking for a keto-friendly cheese puff replacement: this ain’t it.

These are amazing. I have tried other brands and nothing beats these snacks. The texture is great Not exactly like puff Cheetos but as close as I have ever found. I have only tried the cheese flavor but truly exceeded my expectations. I will definitely be continuing to buy them. Yes a little expensive but if you are looking for a chip that’s low carb these and Hilo’s tortilla chips are well worth it.
