Here's Why Ritz Crackers Are Banned In Other Countries
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 вер 2021
- Ritz crackers are an American classic. These salty, buttery discs have been around since 1935, and are a great delivery system for a slice of cheese, a dollop of hummus, or some guacamole. They're also pretty tasty on their own. Showing up to a party with a tray of Ritz crackers and some toppings is always a good call.
But outside of the United States? You won't be able to find them, at least in some countries. They're just not available. Why is that? There's one offending ingredient, which you'd never know was a problem otherwise. Here's why Ritz crackers are banned in other countries.

What do you like to put on Ritz crackers?
Granny's old school Spinach Artichoke Dip, and the Seafood Dip
Deviled Ham, mixed with Miracle Whip and pickle relish
Marble cheese.
Salami and cheese
Sometimes Peanut Butter.
The fact that they are willing to manufacture a " heathier " version for other Countries but not their own( when there would definitely be a market for it) speaks volumes
yup, seems from the comments that basically every country in the world outside the US has this product, but to a different recipe
@@mehere8038 I gave them up years ago but I definitely miss them
@@mehere8038 Our F D A is alot of the problem too. They aren't looking for out for us at all anymore. Their interest is in corporations to make profit
I agree more countries should ban more foods...sugar, grains, rice and oils...all need to go.
That's because they are made in those other countries. Here's a fun fact. Ritz crackers sold in the US are made in Mexico.
The main reason I don't buy Ritz is because I can't stop eating a whole sleeve at one sitting.
I just did that topped with peanut butter and jam.
@@lottasunshine1325 try Nutella it’s amazing lol
Ditto 😊❤️
They have smaller sleeves now…
I try to stop when half a sleeve is gone
"Not allowed in Norway" - (sitting in Norway, eating Ritz crackers) I think they just make some batches with different oils.
Having some this moment in Germany. 😊
Anything to mislead Americans on how great life is in other countries. LOL Get Your Ritz on!!!
Having some at the moment in Antarctica. 🥶
That's actually common. M&M's in the US look exactly the same as the ones sold in European countries, but the US ones are colored with very harmful artificial dyes (think neurological damage, among other things) while the ones sold in Europe are colored with vegetable dyes.
Nabisco probably does the same with the oils they use.
The reason is our FDA. It's 100% corrupt.
FDA executives all hop back and forth every few years between the FDA, global food corporations, and pharmaceutical corporations.
It's why they approve things as "generally recognized as safe" that are so poisonous that they're banned in other countries, and why they intentionally create loopholes for their buddies---and for themselves, as they'll be back on the food or pharma corp payroll after a little while.
Edit to add: The funny thing is, the vast majority of Americans will tell you that the FDA "keeps us safe!", and "if it was harmful the FDA wouldn't allow it", or "it must be safe because the FDA approved it! You're just a crazy theorist!" and they truly believe it.
I imagine the FDA executives laugh all the way to the bank.
The report should have been clear. It it Ritz crackers that are banned in Norway or the unhealthy oil? It is possible that Norway and other countries has the crackers without the or has stricter limits as to how much crap they allow in foods.
:"a May 2018 report from the World Health Organization, Austria, Denmark, Hungary, Iceland, and Norway "have set best practice mandatory limits of industrially-produced trans fat that apply to all foods"
I can remember in the 1970's a regular size box of Ritz crackers was about 39 cents for a 16oz box. Now the size has been reduced to 13.7oz and the price is $4.40. This is not only inflation, but also shrinkflation when you get less product.
😔
So your packs are still a little bigger, ours are 300 grams, 10.5 oz, but they're $3 aud, $1.95 usd. You're getting screwed!
@ Dave-Rough-Diamond-Dunn-- I agree with you that I would be getting screwed if I was paying the regular price for a 13.7 ounce (388 grams) box of Ritz crackers, which is now $4.40 USD.
About every four to six weeks, a large grocery chain called Publix here in Florida, USA, has all varieties of Ritz crackers on a Buy One Get One Free sale. I always wait for this sale, so I buy either two or four boxes, so I am actually paying $2.20 USD per box or about $3.38 in Australian money.
Fortunately, Publix has many items on a Buy One Get One Free sale every week.
@ Dave-Rough-Diamond-Dunn-- I agree that if I was paying the regular price, I would be getting screwed. There is a grocery store here in Florida, USA, called Publix that has Ritz crackers on a Buy One Get One Free sale every month or two. When they have this sale, it is $2.20 USD or $3.38 AUD for a 13.7 ounce (388 grams) box. When Publix has this sale, I usually buy two or four boxes.
@@franknew9001 Here the special is $2.50, at least every second week it seems, but I think they're going up and $3 will be the special. Yep, just looked online, $3.50 is the price now, and they're now 227grams. Like you, when they're on special I stock up, at least 4 boxes, last time I got more. The last box in the cupboard is 300 grams, and cost me $2.50, it's been a couple of months since I last stocked up, so I apologise for my info being out of date, it's seems we're getting screwed too!
I have been buying Ritz crackers for decades, and as of late I have noticed that they aren't quite the same as they used to be. If I had to put my finger on it, I would say that they aren't nearly as buttery as they once were, the outer texture is somewhat different (less puffy?), and they appear to be a tiny bit thinner too.
Reminds me of how good McDonalds fries use to be back when they were fried in beef tallow. Those were the good old days.
They also crumble real easy
@@brendatrump5163 And their burgers before that late 90's Jack-In-The-Box, E-Coli scare, when all the chains had to start cooking their burgers medium-well. McDonald's quarter pounders used to be absolutely delicious.
Ikr
I've quit using them cause they shatter at the drop of a hat. Useless.
Many packaged foods that I ate 20 years ago taste differently today. Oreos make me sick at my stomach. Ritz crackers definitely taste different.
Oreos are so gross! They're like weird cardboard.
Oreos, and a ton of other stuff have semonyx in it. A flavor “enhancer” made from aborted fetal kidney cells. 😝
Yep, agreed all foods I ate in the 80s make me sick now
Oreos give me trouser chili. I ate a box the other day and shit my pants 20 minutes later. I had shit splattered all over my ass cheeks.
@@DanielReyes-zu8em Biden eats those too.
Ritz underwent a major change in both flavor and texture when the wrapper for a “sleeve” changed from waxed paper to cellophane (initially clear but now light brown to imitate the wax paper).
They used to be more firm and dense and could easily be split top from bottom.
Now they are more … “buttery” but also more “crumbley” to the point that its difficult to use one as a scoop for medium stiff substances.
When I was younger I called them more “cured” before the packaging change.
Maybe the wax paper breathed a little, so that just allowed the cracker to dry slowly. Try leaving them out with an open wrapper for a while maybe and see if that firms them up?
They use soy‼️
I hate it when they change the recipe for food i like, if it ain't broke don't fix it! Lately whenever a product says "new recipe" on the package you need to compare the old ingredients to the new ones because in every case the new ingredients are just cheaper and unhealthy! Knorr brand chicken bullion cubes used to be made with real chicken meat and it was actually high protein, low fat and sodium! I told my husband bouillon cubes just fat balls with salt 😂😂 but he said Knorr was healthy and it was. But suddenly when I checked the nutritional value and it wasn't! It had high salt, fat and sugar. The front of the box said "New Recipe" like it was better. 😓💀 Instead of meat they now use chicken SKIN, fat and bones and double the sodium & sugar! 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️ The same ingredients as the cheapest brand of Chinese bouillon cubes but cost 3X as much! I'm sick of eating garbage made out of garbage! 😡
I buy Ritz crackers twice a month. The boxes I buy have wax paper sleeves.
They are also bioengineered too, read the back of the box and read everything you buy. I have taken a lot of items back to the store and I circle the word bioengineered, they don’t exactly like people bringing things back but, I say tough shit.
I used to eat them, but the label on these 2 boxes I just bought shows GMO, and high fructose corn syrup. Also listed was "natural flavor" and I just checked the "Better Homes and Gardens" website. It said, "What are the negatives of natural flavors?
Natural flavor mixtures can contain more than 100 chemicals, including solvents, emulsifiers, flavor enhancers, and preservatives. In fact, some natural flavors, classified as safe, are made of more than 90% other substances used to enhance the flavor being created. "
I put my two new boxes straight into the trash.
Good for you! Yes, I've been looking into the FDA and foods lately and it's terrible what they are allowing in our food now. I just got done watching a video on how we are eating plastics in our food too, so watch out. And I also watched a documentary awhile ago on the medical community and how they want you sick so they can make money off of people having to see doctors more and how doctors are always prescribing people medications and how much money the pharmaceutical companies are making. Our prescriptions and food are regulated by the FDA. They are all involved in some way. Plus, the pills they prescribe us have many side effects and those cause further health problems so in turn, they prescribe you more meds and they also have side effects not to mention, the pills themselves have long term side effects which we are just now finding out about.😮 it's scary out there these days!😳
Ingredient list in Australia WHEAT FLOUR, VEGETABLE OIL (CONTAINS ANTIOXIDANTS (307B, 304)), SUGAR, FRUCTOSE SYRUP, IODISED SALT, RAISING AGENTS (500, 341, 503), MALTODEXTRIN, DEXTROSE, EMULSIFIER (SOY LECITHIN), FLAVOURS, ONION POWDER, YEAST EXTRACT, ACIDITY REGULATOR (330), ENZYME (CONTAINS WHEAT), MINERALS (IRON, ZINC), VITAMINS (RIBOFLAVIN, THIAMIN, FLOATE).
no idea why they decided to put it all in caps, sorry
@@lucakat9262 Yep I say the same thing - the people in charge of looking out for us consumers are more interested in helping the companies earn more profit
Good for you for not eating them but you could have taken them back to the store for a refund. That would hurt the company more.
Yep..GMOS
To paraphrase Jim Gaffigan..."Do you know what's in those?!?" "No, but they're delicious!"
Hahah best comment for this video I read that in his voice too 😂
My moms choice was Club clackers!
@@bweaver760 also really good !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If it tastes good - spit it out!
And that mentality is why Americans are morbidly obese.
Ever since the food industry has been using dangerous ingredients, I have learned how to make my own snacks and candies from scratch. I used to love eating Ritz Crackers with potted meat and Sharp Cheddar Cheese.
I always loved deviled ham, but we could only afford potted meat.
You have any of those French fried potaters…
Everything is poisoned
Potted meat...🤮

My "healthy eating" starter plan has only two (2) no-no ingredients: High fructose corn syrup and hydrogenated anything. When I found out Ritz had both, stopped buying. This plan has cut out a LOT of foods. There's still plenty of cookies, ice creams, sausages, all kind of stuff I can still eat, but it's a start.
if it tastes good it probably isn't good for you. :)
@Kevfactor if you're going to add oils, though, the tasty ones are better for you than seed or bean oils, hydrogenated or not. Have you seen the health consequences of PUFAs?
That is the best start ever. I know people on all ends of the diet spectrum, and whatever it is, they all do better, because they cut out those. Bromides replaced Iodine in all baked goods in the world except for Tasmania in the 1920s. Go figure!
@@pondboy3682 WIll check that otu
Not to mention too much salt...
Ritz Crackers ARE available here in Switzerland. I first started to see them on the shelves in Spring '21. Not sure if they changed up the ingredients to make them legal here, but they are defiantly available.
@tecdessus Oddly enough I happen to have a box of Ritz Crackers here. I just looked at the ingredients and it seems like they have substituted cottonseed oil with sunflower oil.
@@MrAustinpen interesting! does it taste the same tho?
@@vannahmae7413 - one year later ... are you still expecting an answer??
*definitely
@@MrAustinpen Interesting would be the country of manufacture. I don't have a box here, but in Australia, our major supermarket chains display all ingredients & product details like country of origin online for anyone shopping online, so I was able to see that ours are made in Indonesia (and also free of transfats)
Also, Tic-Tacs are almost 100% sugar. They’re labeled as sugar free due to less than 1/2 gram of sugar per serving
I am, literally, eating a box of Tic-Tacs, currently. I can eat ‘em, like candy (I mean, beyond being a breath-mint).
I was reading the label, earlier. The * next to “sugar,” states it adds a “trivial amount of calories, total calories, and added calories.”
Though, I love that sweet, outer flavor.
However, I don’t buy ‘em too often. I just so happened to have found ‘em, when cleaning.
Although, kinda weird this Ritz video came up. I ate a small pack of Ritz crackers, about an hour ago - only cause my mother buys ‘em and I haven’t had a chance to go to the store, to get my own food (which, tends to be much cleaner).
Lol, perhaps my phone was listening in, and could recognize the sound of the crisp, being I was watching something, while eating it.
Either that, or Face ID is doing more IDing than it’s supposed to..
@@XOChristianaNicole Tic tacs have 1.5 calories each (and have a single serving size). Food with less than 2 calories per serving is allowed to be labeled 0 calories.
Can't stay on topic?
Serving size: ¼ of a mint. 😉
Each serving is sugar free _when served from a Tennis racquet..._ 🎾🙃
And they taste like medicine, yuck!
"It's debatable whether Ritz crackers are healthy." No, it's not. They're unhealthy, full stop. But that's why they're so good
They're NOT good. And not healthy, either. They're junk.
@@foobarmaximus3506 Thanks for sharing
Most of these health food restrictions are hogwash.
If you don't eat 5 pounds of Ritz crackers every day...there is probably no problem.
Alcohol is the number one bad food item, with about 140,000 deaths per year in the US. BUT, no one is screaming about Alcohol.
Instead they scream about a tiny bit of trans-fats in crackers.
They don't taste good because they are unhealthy. They are unhealthy because they taste good.
'Trans' fats. Are they part of the rainbow cult?
I live in Thailand and occasionally get Ritz here. They taste different. When I compared, I saw that they do not have the oil, and have less calories. Preservatives in food here are not common.
Aussie ones are made in Indonesia, I'm guessing yours probably are too & yeh, none of the corn syrup or transfats in ours
Hydrogenated oil is very similar to plastic. The other really bad ingredient limited in some countries is high fructose corn syrup.
And water is very similar to hydrogen peroxide. Jeesh.
be honest. if you're eating something that comes out of a box, you know it's not good for you.
So true!!💯💯💯💯
How is it not good for you if you’re eating in moderation?
There are varying degrees of poison. This is just under cake and donuts.
@@TheRealBrook1968 White flour and fat! What the People love.
Agreed
I am in Norway, currently eating ritz crackers, not banned here...
Here in Australia they are made with vegetable oil. In the UK they are made with Sunflower oil, so I expect Norway uses one of those oils as well.
Probably different oils
Do you guys shove them up your ass in Norway too? I like a nice sleeve of crackers in my ass.
Well......Good For You!!!
Wow. Our products are practically in every country now. Nabisco is everywhere.
Some of the footage here made me really want to visit a Krispy Kreme. I used to like to go in and watch them being made. I'd see one squirt out of the dough dispenser, and I'd follow it all the way through the rising process, the frying, the flip, the icing, and try to get that particular one.
Nice!
That is true for Kraft macaroni and cheese also . The U.S.A. version uses GMO flour but the European does not allow GMO foods in products.
If you can't make macaroni and cheese without Kraft, then God help you.
Artificial butter flavoring when shipped in bulk 55 gal drums travels as hazmat/corrosive.
T.Y.
Wow!!
Jesus, that's actually pretty scary.
🤤🤤🤤
That's alarming. Thank God I buy REAL BUTTER!
Vegetable oils aren’t all that healthful anyway. Trans fats are hard to avoid with processed vegetable oils, harder if the vegetable oils are heated as in deep-frying. It’s not just the partially-hydrogenated stuff…
Cottonseed oil is not recommended as cotton crops are heavily dosed with insecticide.
There is no such thing as vegetable oil. That's just a marketing scam. They are bean and seed oils that are as good for your body as drinking bleach.
seed oils are positively correlated with systemic inflammation that is part of many chronic painful conditions . . use coconut oil for high temp cooking and use olive oil for whatever could use oil but not needing high temp to cook it. I have the autoimmune illness inflammatory bowel and have been reading much about what worsens inflammation . . you can bet that any friend food at a restaurant is using vegetable oil aka "industrial oil" and it's probably harmful in various ways but Culver's onion rings are still part of my occasional order! I doubt they use "wonder-full" coconut oil.
@@tessangelabeck8958 You nailed it with 150% accuracy. Why would the Governfail tell you vegetable oil is good? They are an arm of big pharma and mass kickbacks come to them. They have no vested interest in a healthy society. That's why meat, eggs and coconut oil gets demonized.
@@tessangelabeck8958 Aren't coconuts and olives the seeds of their respective plants?
They are now made canola oil, which is extremely inflammatory. I resisted temptation for years, then got a small box. They were tasty, and had a great texture, but I noticed a reaction very quickly.
There are organic ones sold in Whole Foods, they taste just as good but without the harmful ingredients, and another brand, same price.
@@RoxanneM- Thank you! Will look for them in a few days.
What kind of reaction?
@@Cotronixco Redness and shiny skin, also chest pain.
@@scallopohare9431 If you react to canlola oil, I can't see that organic ones are going to be any better for you. Organic's great for some stuff, but I can't see this one will help you
They were the best and easy snacks to make growing up. We made them with peanut butter with jam or just cheddar cheese, cheese whiz or hazelnut spread. 😋
Or pizza sauce a piece of sausage n some cheese on top in the broiler
Haven't eaten a Ritz in years. Will keep it this way.
Good to know
@Rod Munsch Nothing more political than a Ritz cracker.
I never did like them ...maybe HD 3x's in my life 61
Good. Preserve your life.
I STOPPED ABOUT 5 YRARS AGO MYSELF I'M NEVER GOING BACK !!!! ....
I love Ritz. Now I’m not going to eat them anymore. Im taking organic chemistry right now so Im learning about the processes used in fatty acids and lipids.
Live a little.
Scary, isn't it?!
Read what happens to your body when you drink a diet soda. WAY worse than a little bit of trans-fats.
Never give up my Ritz crackers ! Live a little is right. Seriously if you aren't raising it yourself or doing the gardening then you are at risk.
They are not banned in Europe they just have different ingredients. No trans fats or GMO ingredients in the packs you buy in the UK freely available in every supermarket.
It is advisable to avoid the types of ingredients that are used in many of the various snack foods, deserts, and cracker type products.
This is exactly why you have to eat everything in moderation.

Some things you must avoid altogether.
Moderation is the word!!
No , that’s not true , moderation in many things still does harm , they tell diabetics to eat carbs moderately , that’s why they never get better only worse , the diabetic journal is sponsored by the insulin manufacturers , so could not print studies showing this , as sales would have gone down of insulin
From a "Wizard of ID" cartoon around 2006:
Sir Rodney: "The Huns are scaling the wall!"
King: "Pour the boiling oil!"
Rodney: "But it contains trans-fat!"
King [looking directly out at reader]: "War is hell."
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂
The King is a fink!
No cotton seed oil listed in the ingredients on the box of Ritz I just bought. Maybe, the ingredients have changed in the last two years.
They are not as good as they used to be 10 years ago. You can’t even spread peanut butter on them without them splintering into crumbs.
Probably because the video is full of crap. They use Soybean and/or Canola now. We liked the bad ones better... maybe.
These dangerous fats are in lots of products. Great information & enjoy EWGs work.
My dad would eat a couple of Ritz Crackers every day after work at home with cheese. He died when he was 91. Go figure.
he only ate a couple...not a whole sleeve at a time.
If he lived to be 90 I would have to say he lived a long life and the crackers and cheese didn't hurt him.
I was really surprised to see this. I just finished a snack of 6 Ritz crackers with salami and mustard along with broccoli and cauliflower w/ dip. I'm 90. I don't eat saltines because of the salt
Average human life age
Finally caught up with him. lol.
Cheddar Cheese or Dairylea spread are delicious. Then add a couple of Walkers Salt and Vinegar or Cheese and Onion crisps on top to complete.
This is why certain pharmaceutical companies invest portions of their assets under treasury in companies like Nabisco and Frito-Lay.
I'm not surprised by this. The FDA regulates the food and pharmaceuticals we consume. So basically, if you eat foods that are bad for you, then you get sick, then you need to go to the doctor and the doctor prescribes you pills (pharmaceuticals). And in turn, the pharmaceutical cause side effects. Now the pharmaceutical companies are making pills for those "side effects" so they can make more money. It's a true win win situation for the pharmaceutical industry.😉
I live in Iceland and I bought a packet of Ritz last week!

Hey, Andy Griffith used to do a commercial for Ritz, so they gotta be good. "mmmmmm! Good cracker!" Actually, they definitely don't taste as good as they used to, but I still buy a box every now and then.
When I read High Fructose Corn Syrup on a label, I will not eat that product. It's in almost everything, even Ritz. However, since I started avoiding that sweetener, my LDL has gone way down and it was very high at one time. Finally, I don't hear my doctor try to talk me into a statin drug. It may be other things in these products that are usually among the HFCS, but it is working for me to leave it alone. I do miss these crackers. They taste so darn good. If they would just use regular sugar, then I could try them again and check my LDL again to see if it was just the HFCS doing it and not the seed oils trans fatting me.
Why the hell does such a cracker need sugar? Just crazy.
True story,
I was having bloating and blood pressure problems. Stopped eating Ritz crackers and potato chips and I am way way feeling better.
It's the carbs... Starch
@@mareonaranch3565 Carbs aren't all bad. I eat raw oat flakes and rye flakes now, and I used to have high blood pressure. Not anymore. Minimally processed carbs are better than highly processed carbs.
They're still available in Australia!
I remember when they were sold by the Lanes company.
@@australianpatriot I still like the taste since I was a kid.
@@user-rs1990 I just looked up the ingredients on the woolies website, different to the US ones & probably cause they also say "product of Indonesia", so they're making a formula that's suitable for our healthier demands. Not sure if Indonesia is making the European ones too or not
It never ceases to amaze me that there is so much information available regarding nutritional detriments yet, people don't seem to care. They go right on eating junk food without a care..
In the Philippines they have something called Fita which is the same as Ritz, tastes the same for about 1/3 of the price. No idea what similarities or differences in ingredients might be.
With the information you just gave, convinced me subscribe to your channel. Thanks! I have not had Ritz crackers in years, but, had recently thought of buying some. So much for that thought.
Wow, I Agree that information was exactly the reason I just Subscribed.

@@libertarianman69 Thanks! I will check that out.
Ritz were my mother's absolute favorite. She had them with peanut butter for her evening snack. I never cared for them as they're so greasy.
Greasy, yes.
Worked several years for the company. Have never once has a "greasy " Ritz.
@@elbmcook I have had a few.
They're actually very dry now. They're not greasy, but they don't taste good either.
Ritz crackers are available all over Europe, the oil is just substituted with one that isn't toxic. The ones in the US just use the trans-fats because it's cheaper and your food standards are terrible.
I did not know. Thanks.
My grandma ate them with a dollop or sour cream and a slice of banana. It is sweet creamy and crispy. Sounds weird but it's so good.
Grandma ate em with nanners too
Ritz are my favorite and the only crackers I buy. Love them the most in soup.
I use these with my egg salad or tuna sald this is my favorite caracker and only will buy however they have changed in the last few years very crumbley and taste a bit different..
I used to love these when I was younger. No seed oils for me.
Summer sausage and your favorite cheese, is all they need.
Had that exact thing for lunch today
What’s really sad is if they ever did announce that they were going to start using healthier oils, We would gladly pay the extra price for a healthier product.
There ARE no healthy seed oils. Check out the channel, "What I've Learned".
@@YSLRD Yeah but honest animal lard, can you imagine that cracker? Yum.
@@YSLRD could they use avocado or olive?
No, you won't, you won't pay extra for anything.
And I'll prove it,
Would you rather pay $10 for one white t-shirt or $1 for ten white t-shirts?
One is made in U.S.A., the other is made in China,
You know EXACTLY which one you would buy.
@@armybeef68 I'd buy the 1 tshirt if it was 10 times the quality & made in Australia - we all do here, hence why we get the ritz ingredient list that omits all the harmful stuff.
DOn't believe we would pay more for better? consumers demanded dairy farmers get an increase in pay, supermarkets said the only way they could do that was to increase prices, consumers said they wanted it, stores didn't believe them so made 2 products, 1 dollar milk and 1.10 dollar milk with 10 cents from each carton going to farmers. They figured that would put an end to the consumer carry on - it did, consumers refused to ever buy the 1 dollar milk again, going to other stores to buy the 1.10 milk if the first store they went to had sold out. the 1 dollar milks all had to be thrown away due to the boycott of it. Hasn't been issues with milk since then, dairy farmers are now properly paid
What the hell, we all gotta go sometime any way. So why not put on the Ritz?
When I saw you ad I knew! My liver and I thanks for sharing. I can’t eat almost anything. Nutrition Newsletter has the story 30 years ago. Thx.
I love Ritz but my country has it's own version of salty crackers - DIXEE 🇹🇹

I love Ritz😊 Greetings from Scotland 😊 Have a great day everyone 🌻
Greetings from SW Pennsylvania! Good day to you too!!
My aunty (87) is old enough to remember when their parents used to cook with pig and cow fat or even coconut oil.
And I'm old enough to remember when It was ON the tv, mostly in 80's showbiz/variety programs, ads RECOMMENDING seed oils because they were the healty alternative to bacon and beef, also until today they try to sell you margarine as a "healty alternative to butter" when in fact margarine is something that could be the pure expresion of a venom.
So true!
Thankfully, Ritz crackers is one thing I’ve never liked. I’m not sure why, because I normally like the sweet/salty flavor combination, but Ritz and Captain’s Wafers just aren’t my thing.
I don't want to know how the sausage is made........
If these are 3rd best seller, what are top 2 ?
Used to get fed these when I was a little kid round my Gran's. She seemed to think these were a treat. They were okay from a freshly-opened packet, but she used to keep opened packets in the fridge so they wouldn't go off...... This made them 'flexible'.
I use crumbled Ritz mixed with melted butter to top several casseroles I make.
Not everything you eat needs to be categorized as healthy. Live your life. Pay attention, don’t obsess.
Actually you should be extremely careful because you'll pay for it health-wise as you age. Being careful isn't equivalent to obsessing.
@@minoozolala I agree, except for your word "extremely".
They used to tell us that eggs, butter, and red meat are bad for you too. Margarine, which is one molecule away from plastic, is fine. I didn't listen to them then, either. Don't even get me started on aspartame.
Bravo Allen. . . . Bravo!
Seems like the most common denominator is shelf life and our busy lifestyles. The goal of extended shelf life has been the driving factor to come up with way to preserve food longer. The longer food lasts, the worse it is for our health. In many countries, people go to markets almost daily to get fresh food for that day and/or the next. No need to preserve food to last for 2 years on a shelf.
Interesting as I just finished eating another sleeve of Ritz Crackers. 😋
We have Ritz Crackers in Bern, Switzerland.....update your research!!!!!
When I'm working around the house, a 'few' of these are filling until lunch or dinner. Other snacks, not so much.
An easy fix for that loophole would be to allow milligrams as a label measurement
Thank you for this information
Everything tastes good when it sits on a Ritz. Good Cracker.
I just looked at the Ingredients list on my box of Ritz crackers and no trans fats are listed. Not only that, but cottonseed oil isn't listed at all, so it shouldn't be present in any form, partially hydrogenated or natural. I can't detect any change of flavor either.
nabisco must haven't paid their rent so they're being bad mouthed. haaaaaaaa. i eat what i want. i work out everyday. enjoy.
I looked at my dad’s package and it doesn’t have any trans fats and nothing I can’t pronounce. Even so, I avoid snack products, but every now and then, I think it’s OK in a pinch. If I have time I’ll make my own stuff!
Forgot to mention, my dad is 93 and eats exactly what he wants to eat.
So what you're saying is that transfat is actually good for you? Thanks!
I m thrilled thay are banned in many countries. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼. So now it means more for me! 💖😍🥰
In this country we are worried about a little bad fat in a cracker? I think not. We have become a fat, lazy country that now we dont even go get the unhealthily foods ourself, we have uber and door dash bring it to us so we dont have to burn any calories.
The reason why westerners have become fat, is because of Hydrogenated oils/fats. We used to eat high fatty diets for ages, and never had a problem. The man-altered fats, stick to your internals like Glue. And once a small amount is in your system... any more that is ingested, end up sticking to the stuff that is already stuck. These types of fats, are 10x harder to remove from the body... so exercise and diet, have far less of a removal success. Not to mention, once your circulation system is screwed... your entire systems health takes a nose dive.
Is there a black market and how do I get in on it?
The main reason I do buy Ritz here in the United Kingdom, is because they're the least cardboard like crackers I have ever encountered, I love them with different kinds of deli meats or cheese as stated in this video. I couldn't eat whole sleeve or packet or box of them in one sitting though. Far too dry, if you've tried to eat two Jacobs crackers in 30 seconds. I had to do this in a science lesson in School once.
I've been eating these forever..someone changed the packaging..now the seal breaks and the whole pack is open
Well ritz have been available for many years in Norway, so that its banned in norway is wrong. and its now with sunflower oil atleast in Norway :)
The late Lyle Osburne introduced me to eating braunschweiger on Ritz crackers. A dietitian swat me for suggesting that treat to a hospital volunteer. Randi is a tough lady bird.
Not banned in Australia. Major supermarkets sell them. I don’t buy them though.
I always used to let the Ritz crackers melt in my mouth. I won't be eating them again. Not worth it.
Like 4 crackers will kill you🙄
If you let this video convince you to do that... you're not a very smart person.

If you put a chunk of cheese on’em
4 is perfect for quick nrg
@@og-greenmachine8623 also peanut butter for energy. Personally I prefer Nutella rather than peanut butter lol
Not saying its healthy just tasty lol
@@prepperjonpnw6482
One of my girlfriends was from Argentina
I don’t eat Nutella and didn’t know what it was
but
she would make shortbread cookies
and put Nutella in between them...🥺
Alfrejores (sp?)
best cookies I’ve ever had❤️
There is crack in Ritz crackers. If I eat one, I can't stop. Damn, their good!!
They are
I hope they get it out because I love to add them to my eggs and some other stuff I eat
This explains why after my 2 heart attacks, I literally ate 1 Ritz cracker and went to my doctor ASAP. I tried it once more a week later (we didn’t narrow it down to Ritz being the culprit) and went to urgent care. It’s been 3 years since I’ve eaten one. I used to eat them all the time before my heart attacks.
Didn't know they were banned in places like Denmark, you can certainly buy them in Sweden.
"RR....Ritz." - line from the Harrison Ford movie "Regarding Henry". EXCELLENT movie, and anytime I hear Ritz, it makes me think of it.
Australia sells them, but made in Indonesia & free of the problem fats. Tends to be the case with a lot of Oz/US products, they're normally reformulated for Aussie sales, switching to cane sugar, not corn syrup & removing banned bad stuff in addition to the bad tasting corn syrup
What a shame Ritz crackers used to be so tasty now they change the recipe and they’re not the same at all! 👎🏼
Feel like I need a snack of crackers, sausage, and cheese after watching this.
Ritz crackers with smoked oysters & vintage tasty is the perfect partner for a few ice cold Carlton Draught's during the footy !
always have a box of Ritz in the cupboard ! i think its an Aussie staple !
I'm going to go buy some right now. Very Delicious!!
I enjoy the lightly salted version on occasion.
But donuts are ok...and all those tasty chips...are also ok. Think I'll continue my Ritz since I don't eat any of that other stuff that's actually a lot worse. IMHO.
Except Ritz has a horrid aftertaste that never quitz.
i love the garlic ritz. I dont eat much junk but i like my ritz crackers and cheese
You CAN buy Ritz crackers in the UK. They are quite popular but like many American food products like McDonalds the ingredients are different in Europe from in the USA. In the UK Ritz crackers are made with palm oil which is not a trans oil.
I used to eat this snack in my youth. They became so addictive and I’m not surprised about the rancid ingredients
Give me a break, this is no good, that's no good...stop telling us what to eat...
Keep eating on that processed food. It's all bad for you. If not the ten year average it cuts off your life was bad enough but the declining health issues for over half of it and the overall lethargy and associated health costs are a no brainer. Three words for u, plant based diet.
@@JohnJohn-wr1jo there are healthy non vegan stuff though
That's ok Martha, Keep on eating what ever makes you happy. Those who are interested in better health will go on without you. I loved ritz until I went carnivore, and learned what real health is like.
