LesserEvil is expanding into a new product category with the launch of Cheezmos—a cheese puff crafted with organic avocado oil and real organic cheddar. The puffs are available in two varieties—Cowboy Cheddar, and Blazin’ Hot Cheddar, a spicy option for heat seekers.

As with all LesserEvil products, Cheezmos are USDA Organic, non-GMO, and minimally processed. Both varieties are crafted without artificial dyes, preservatives, or seed oils.

“Cheese puffs are one of the most iconic, nostalgic snacks out there, but they’ve long been filled with ingredients most of us try to avoid,” says Charles Coristine, president and CEO of LesserEvil. “Cheezmos take that classic experience and clean it up without compromising on taste. They’re cheesy, crunchy, and snackable, with real ingredients that are as good for you as they taste.”  

Cheezmos are available for an MSRP of $5.99 for a 7-oz bag at Whole Foods Market starting this month, and at Kroger stores nationwide beginning in September.
