Cheez-it Taste Testing Time #1.

For my first taste testing I decided that I had to go with what started it all: original. Well, I don't know for sure if it actually started it all, but it's a safe assumption to make.

I ate the original flavored cheez-its with two of my suite-mates, Deiter and Ashley (their names have been changed in order to protect their identity). When I first opened the box we all just sat there smelling that delicious baked cheese smell. Ahhhhh, how even the smell of cheez-its fills me with joy.

When it was time to try our first cheez-it, we did so tentatively. Deiter was taking small bites, as she usually does, in order to fully grasp the flavor. Personally, I just stuck the whole thing in my mouth. It was...DELICIOUS. Did I expect anything different? No. I've eaten the original cheez-it too many to count, but actually thinking about the flavor made me so much more aware of the deliciousness I was consuming.

I personally enjoy the aftertaste of an original cheez-it, and I wasn't alone. Deiter commented about the joy she felt when there was still some flavor left on her lips. She also enjoyed the flakiness of the texture as she chomped down on a crunchy cheez-it. Ashley agreed as well. After I recommended my favorite way to eat cheez-its - putting four in your mouth at a time, two on each side - Ashley said, with such happiness - "What flavor!"

What other way to sum up my love for original cheez-its besides the statement "What flavor!"? I personally enjoy the way the cheez-it flavor just filled up my mouth. I never want to taste anything again, besides cheez-its.

I give the original cheeze-it a 9.3 out of 10. I love the original, and I may re-evaluate after trying other flavors. What would you rank the original flavor as on a scale from 1-10, with 10 being the best?
