Hey, I like Chicken in a Biskit! You can still buy them you know.

MadC--I'm just thinking about how when a non-meat cracker goes a little stale, and tastes lousy, then adding in the notion of a rotten meat taste....

But I will happily believe you when you say fresh Chicken-in-a-biskits are good!

Big Gary--I ate lots of faddish foods as a kid, from Pop Tarts and Tang on down, but never these.

Oh man, you've got to be kidding! Chicken in a Biskit are great! If you need a chicken soup flavored salt delivery system, there's nothing better! I'd love to try the bacon ones. Think they still make 'em?

Bill--okay, the consensus is building against my hasty judgment....

Where's my grocery shopping list?

Lazlo-- bacon flavoured things: awesome! I can just see the packaging; now 30% thingier.

All the lovers of C-in-a-B: what has not yet been addressed is the artificial-to-real ratio of the flavor. Do these taste like real chicken, or just a reasonable simulation which you all imprinted on...?

I love Chickin in a Biskit crackers! They're great for sharp cheddar cheeseballs!

Fred--this is bad news for me and my waistline!

Wow, who knew crackers would be such a hit. I, too, can add to having had CIAB and thought they were pretty yummy.

Posted by Maegan on 08/22/08 at 09:57 PM

Great. Will now have to go and buy myself a box of these. I haven't had them in ages. Nummy. 😊
