TWIN PEAKS Protein Puffs, Nacho Cheese Keto Snack, 10 servings, 10.6 oz

9/2/21 update So recently I purchased sour cream and onion and jalapeno cheddar! The sour cream and onion ones taste like Funyuns! I love it. I added a little onion powder to make it taste more onion-y. These also have a slight “wet dog” after taste but the onion powder takes that away completely. The Jalapeno Cheddar is awesome! It’s spicy and has zero weird after taste. Cheesy and jalapeno-y. I didnt end up finishing the nacho cheese ones from my original review and probably wouldnt purchase them again but these 2 flavors are awesome! ***** These weren’t supposed to come until tomorrow but I got them a day early! I am so excited about these! These are a total game changer with dieting. I feel like now I’ll be able to actually lose weight because they will allow me to eat less. They don’t taste exactly like cheetos, but close enough. They also are crunchier than cheetos. They have their own unique taste. I got the Nacho Cheese kind and may try the spicier flavor in the future. I’m surprised how good they really are! They are smaller puffs, maybe a little bigger than a dime but that’s not a bad thing. A serving size is a cup so you get a lot for the serving! I am SO happy I accidentally stumbled across these. PS: The only thing negative I noticed about them is that they make your fingers smell like a dirty dog that needs a bath. At least with the Nacho Cheese flavor. They are still good though!

Honestly, baked cardboard would be better. There is no flavor to these. The only thing they have going for them is they are crunchy. But they are definitely not something I would ever buy again. I know low carb is not always as good as normal junk food. But let's try harder. Its also a rather small jug for the price and the puffs are very small. Maybe like a marble size or slightly smaller. I was really hoping these would be good. I guess my snack seach continues....

I picked these up looking for a keto-friendly snack to bring along on a road trip, knowing they weren't going to taste exactly like regular cheese puffs. My first impression wasn't great, the first few pieces had a dry, almost cardboard-like flavor that I was still trying to formulate an opinion on. However, after eating a few more, the flavor started to change. I began to notice more of a mild cheddar and protein taste that was actually pretty enjoyable for what it is. It's definitely not the same light, cheesy, melt-in-your-mouth experience you'd get from traditional cheddar puffs, so it's important to go into these with realistic expectations. They're more of a high-protein snack that happens to have a cheddar flavor than a true substitute for regular cheese snacks. That said, they served their purpose really well. While following a keto diet on a long road trip, it was nice to have something crunchy that fit my macros instead of reaching for sugary chips or other high-carb snacks. They helped satisfy the urge to snack without knocking me off track. Will I buy them again? Probably not, simply because there are other keto snacks I prefer. But I'm still glad I gave them a try. If you're looking for a portable, keto-friendly snack and understand that it won't taste exactly like traditional cheddar puffs, these are worth trying at least once.

Literally this company needs to reset and let the reviews start over ... These things are amazing, I have eaten a lot of protein snacks, and this one is so good. Complaints about the texture and the stomach aches ... it's a crunchy ball of milk! if milk doesn't sit well, don't buy these! Otherwise, the stomach aches people complain about will not be your issue. Yes, after you crunch away the crunch, the texture isn't great, but you aren't buying protein snacks because they represent a gourmet meal ... eat em, and get to work. Great product.

Tasty but has the typical protein snack chalky taste

I really wanted to like these. Got interested in these after watching Dr. Mike Israetel’s video on this diet and his endorsement. I didn’t listen to the other reviews dunking on these puffs because if they could just be palatable, getting 21g protein for 130 calories for a snack bowl would be worth it. Alas they are bad. First few puffs were great, the flavor is cheesy and nice. But the texture is so bad. Takes a while to chew and swallow and its got a strange “cob web” like texture when they’re mashed up in your mouth. I struggled to finish one serving of these and I will likely throw the rest of them away. If Twin Peaks could just fix the texture, make the puffs bigger and more airy, this would be an incredible snack with amazing protein/calorie ratio.

I was needing an option that was lower in carbs and higher in protein as a snack and this seems to fit the bill. I am definitely a "bored" snack person. When I get bored and I'm just sitting around, I needed something a bit more healthier sitting around the house as well. I came across this option. Yes, as some say, the price is a bit higher but it is the price you pay for a healthier lifestyle. I want the change so I'll make the sacrifice. The taste is really good. No it isn't the same as the "regular ol' cheese puffs" but these aren't the regular ol cheese puffs. These are a healthier option. So they aren't going to have all the added stuff that may have the "flavors". With that though, it is not that bad though. It would turn me away from ordering these more and more. I would say, if you are looking for a healthier snack option, know that healthy may mean it's not going to taste the same. Give these a try. They are really good. I ordered the Nacho Cheese and the Jalapeno flavoring.

Sorry but these are not for me. Tried the jalapeno cheddar and nacho cheese. Smells like spoiled milk, or a protein drink that sat out too long. Both taste exactly the same. Very off putting sour milk taste. Not sure if the smell was throwing off the taste but chewed 4 of each since they are small (size of pinky nail) and couldn’t swallow them. Lingering after taste of milk and plastic.

I'd imagine a much better taste, just get some protein crackers, they taste better.
