Fall Festival - Pepperidge Farms Crackers Review and Giveaway

Today's Fall Feature at Snafood:

Pepperidge Farm Review and Giveaway!

Today's featured company on The Speedy Gourmet:

I have enjoyed Pepperidge Farm products since I was a little kid.  Who doesn't enjoy goldfish...seriously?  They have come a long way since then, and they recently added some wonderful products to their line.

Lucky me - I got to sample these items for this review!  I sampled the Baked Naturals Cheese Crisps in both flavors: Four Cheese and Four Cheese Italian Herb.  I have found my new snack crackers!  The flavors are rich, yet not overwhelming.  They are baked!  I love that fact.  I found myself dipping these in everything, and putting all sorts of toppings on them (though they are so delicious on their own!).  I also sampled the Garden Flavor "flavor blasted" goldfish - oh yum!  (My daughter and I were kind of playing a tug-o-war game with them...neither of us wanted to let go!).

From the Pepperidge Farms website:

For us, baking is more than a job—it's a real passion. Each day, our bakers take the time to make every cookie, pastry, cracker and loaf of bread the best way they know how... by using simple, good ingredients like real fruit filling baked into Verona® cookies, 100% whole grains baked into our Whole Grain breads, and real cheddar cheese baked into our Goldfish® crackers. It's the little things that make simple food taste special. We believe in doing things right, and we just happen to love it. Baking requires knowledge of the craft, a spirit of exploration and inspired ideas. At Pepperidge Farm, we have been honing and perfecting our chosen craft for generations, and our bakers care deeply about what it means.There's something about freshly baked bread or cookies that simply makes people smile. That's important to us.

Pepperidge Farm Baked Naturals are preservative-free, natural snacks, made with an artisan blend of real cheeses golden baked to bubbly perfection on top of a thin, crispy, crunchy cracker. Four Cheese is made with Aged Cheddar, Parmesan, Romano and Asiago, while Italian Herb is seasoned with flavorful herbs and spices.


Of course there are so, so many other goodies that Pepperidge Farm makes - from cookies to desserts to fresh breads and rolls (and everything in between).  I can honestly say I have never met a Pepperidge Farm product that I did not like. Milano Cookies are another one of my favorites (but I'll stop here - this is a post about Baked Naturals!)

Today's featured company - The Big Popper!

Gourmet popcorn gifts offer something delicious for any occasion. Whether you need to thank someone, congratulate someone, or just say "Hi," The Big Popper has gift ideas popping up all around!

MMMM - I love popcorn.  I love big, huge pieces of popcorn, not wimpy popcorn.  The Big Popper is just that - big, flavorful popcorn - every single piece.  A nice big bowl (or in this case a 2-gallon tin!) is essential for snuggling up in the Fall when the weather starts to change.  I love to sit with my popcorn, watch movies and hang out with my family.  I received a 2-gallon tin filled to the brim with yummy cheese and caramel popcorn.  I did decide to share with my family, since I had so much - but let me tell you, it wasn't easy!

Remember - these would make excellent holiday gifts too - shortly you will be able to see the holiday tins on their website!
