If you’re someone who eats crackers regularly and wouldn’t list Ritz among your favorites for dipping and/or piling cheese on…I don’t understand you at all.
Ritz are the best, and since they sell millions of boxes every single year, you might think there’s nothing new to see there.
According to TikToker @mmarlo_5862, though, you would be wrong.

“For 26 years I’ve been doing everything incorrectly and I’m just now recently learning about it because sure enough when I heard this, of course, I had to contact Ritz as a company.”
And guess what? He says they answered.
“They said that they already released a statement a year ago confirming that that’s what the crackers were used for. They also told me that the crackers cut best on sharp cheddar, Colby jack cheese, and pepper jack cheese. So try that out.”

A little poking around confirmed the bit about the statement and the confirmation of the “life hack,” demonstrating the truth of it on their own TikTok account.

The good news is I’ll get to eat cheese in the process. For science.
