Is there any snack food in the world better than cheese puffs?

Sorry, that was a rhetorical question, because the answer is hell no. Cheese snacks are the ultimate snack, period, end of story, full stop. But while we love a good cheesy nosh, we aren't fools -- we know that cheese puffs aren't all created equal.

So, to settle the great debate once and for all, we embarked on a very scientific journey to discover which cheese puff reigns supreme. To be clear about our process, we simply ranked cheese puffs based on our own personal preferences. So feel free to disagree, but you'll be wrong.

Let's be honest, these are the stepchildren of cheese puffs. No one is reaching for Wise Cheez Doodles when Cheetos are anywhere in sight.

Crunchy Cheetos are like mediocre sex. You never really crave them, but once you have them, you're fairly satisfied.

Don't knock 'em till you've tried 'em. Yes, Goldfish Puffs are a little enigmatic, but they are actually quite delicious, as if a Goldfish and a Cheeto had babies. YUMMM.

Utz Cheese Balls
Amazon.com

Ah, the old classic. You can never really go wrong with a nice tub of cheese balls. Pro tip: they pair nicely with a glass of full-bodied red wine.
