I grew up eating Ritz crackers…
…long before there were Julie’s…
Those were during the colonial times when we had everything made in England – Jacob’s cream crackers (the present ones are under the Danone flagship, if I am not mistaken, or Kraft Malaysia), Huntley & Palmers’ Nice and Gems.
We can still get those Ritz ones these days though I am not too sure where they are made now – I never bothered to check. These smoky bacon flavour ones…
…are made in Hungary…
…it seems.
I would say they were very nice – very crispy with the very nice bacon fragrance…
…but I would say they do not come cheap.
My girl saw them at our local supermarket the other day and bought me a pack to enjoy…
…and from the price tag, each was going for over RM7.00 and perhaps, that was on special offer…
…as the expiry date would be sometime around the end of the month.
O.k…I’ve tried and I’ve enjoyed it but I sure am not rushing out to get another pack…even though at least, it is a little cheaper than many of the imported biscuits and cookies available here. The way the prices are shooting up, I think I can jolly well live without them.
...STILL CRAZY AFTER ALL THESE YEARS!
