I often like new products I try, and I often tell you about them. However, RARELY do I try a new product and love it so much that I contact the company and ask (I would have begged if it came down to it) if they would have me review it. Recently I tried an amazing food that motivated me to do just that-email the company and ask if I could do a review! They were extremely kind to comply! The amazing snack I speak of is the one, the only Pretzel Crisps®. I was lucky enough to be sent the whole deli style crisps collection
 to sample (with an awesome bag to boot!):

The flavors above are (from left to right) top row: Original, Everything, Sesame, Chipotle Cheddar, bottom row: Garlic Parmesan, Buffalo Wing, and Jalapeno Jack.

I seriously cannot tell you how much our family LOVES these! Seriously amazing! As far as I am concerned these are the ultimate snacking experience! (And BTW-love the background story which you should all check out here: http://pretzelcrisps.com/our-story/. Way to Keep at it until the perfect snack was achieved-perfect in my words, not theirs) All flavors are straight out of the bag or with dips or toppings. You could make some SWEET and easy appetizers with these babies!

The basic idea behind the  Pretzel Crisps® is that it is a flat pretzel cracker. Check out what a single one looks like:

And how flat and thin they are:

Such a perfect idea to make topping and dipping so easy, and to make it easy to eat! So awesome!

Let me tell you about them flavor by flavor:

Original: This is the favorite of both my daughters. My oldest said it is her fave because it is just "the classic". It is basically a crisp, flat, salted pretzel. Really tasty, and for my tastes I like it better than other pretzels. Of course the completely functional bonus is how easy these are to top! And the original could seriously top with just about anything. We liked cheese-any kind-on these ones or dipping them in a cheese dip for a savory snack. But we also found that you can sweeten these up for a salty sweet snack by dipping them in frosting or melted chocolate. Both are awesome options!

Everything: This is like an Everything Bagel, covered with Poppy seeds, Sesame Seeds, Onion, garlic and a pinch of salt. This was my 2nd favorite flavor and I am all about eating this one alone. Plenty of flavor and so, so good! But that being said, my aunt, husband, and XiaXia (grandma in Greek) liked them plain, but liked them even more when paired with hummus.

Sesame: My middle son LOVES this kind and calls it his favorite! When I asked him why it is his favorite he said (in his most "duh!" voice): "Um, its sesame and salt on a pretzel, how could that be bad?" And I have to agree-it is fantastic! This is the favorite flavor at our house to pair with any kind of hummus or dip (like a ranch or french onion).

Chipotle Cheddar: My Oldest Son claims this one as his fave! He loved the spicy, cheesy flavor. I think this one is a great one to pair with a salsa or cheese as a topping. It would be great with a cream cheese based dip as well (though I did not get to try that before this bag was devoured!)

Garlic Parmesan: My baby boy LOVES these. In fact, as I was typing this, he woke up from his nap, came downstairs, went to the pantry and dragged the bag out, and brought it to me to open as I typed. He eats these like crazy-and it is this flavor he picks out (he is only 18 months old though so we do break down the pieces a little). These are like a classic Italian flavor. At the request of the children, we ate them the other night as a side with our Spaghetti and dipped them in our marinara sauce-FANTASTIC! I think a great Alfredo sauce would be awesome as well!

Buffalo Wing: Oh.My.Gosh. This is the flavor that sold me and motivated me to email Pretzel Crisps®. Really-this is my absolute favorite snack. I have not tasted anything like it. It is like the spices of a buffalo wing on a  Pretzel Crisps®! INCREDIBLE! Want the ultimate snacking experience? Throw a really nice bleu cheese chunk on this baby or dip it in Bleu cheese dressing-HEAVEN!! (Can you tell I LOVE this one?!) By far my favorite! YUMMY!

Jalapeno Jack: This is a spicy bold flavor. Pairs nicely with guacamole or salsa (or pop a slice of chees on it if you want to tone down the spice on this one). It was a little spicy for a couple of my kids and me, but my hubby thought it was not spicy enough.
