About these crackers
Ritz Original Crackers Box, in brief.
Ritz Original, 150g: the round, golden, rich cracker, made with wheat flour, palm oil, sugar, glucose fructose syrup, raising agents, salt and barley malt flour. The pack carries vegan and vegetarian claims.
A serving on the label is 8 crackers (30g). The label data gives 487 kcal and 23g of fat per 100g, with 8.5g of sugars.
Ritz is a cracker with its own character: round, golden, with a scalloped edge, rich and lightly sweet, and salted on top. It is the cracker people eat by the stack at parties, and one that works as well under a slice of cheese as it does on its own.
The recipe is short. Palm oil gives the richness, sugar and glucose fructose syrup the golden colour and sweetness, barley malt flour a malty note, and a blend of raising agents the light, flaky bite.
Curator notes: the tasting profile is our own editorial assessment against the current pack format and the maker's published description. The pack in your hand is always the final word on ingredients and allergens.

Brand
The story behind Ritz
Ritz crackers were launched in 1934 by the National Biscuit Company, Nabisco, when America was deep in the Great Depression, and the name promised a bite of the good life. The cracker is round and golden, with a scalloped edge and seven holes, rich and lightly sweet with salt on top, the kind people eat by the stack. The Ritz Original on our shelf lists wheat flour, palm oil, sugar, glucose fructose syrup, raising agents, salt and barley malt flour, and carries a vegan claim on the label. Alongside it we stock Ritz Cheese, with cheese powder and black pepper, and Ritz Breaks in lunchbox packs. Wikipedia notes that in May 2024 the 200g boxes were replaced by 150g boxes at the same price.
Packaging: a 150g pack. Once the pack is open, fold it tightly closed or tip the crackers into an airtight tin, and keep them somewhere cool and dry. Damp air is what softens a cracker. The pack gives the best before date.
