Best baked cheese crackers? We rank the house brands

Updated

It's crunch time for many college students, so how fitting that Store Brand Scorecard tried out baked cheese crackers this week, at the recommendation of reader/friend Allison Enright.

Allison insists that CVS/pharmacy's brand variation of Cheez-It actually tastes better, and yes, it happens to cost less, too. So are these pharmacy-brand snacks all they're crackered up to be? Or is the claim a bit cheezy?

Wanting to find out myself (and hungry for a cheesy, crunchy snack), Store Brand Scorecard sampled CVS cheese crackers, Cheez-It, and two other store brands, to see which brand is the Big Cheese when it comes to flavor and price.
