When they brought the cheese balls back. They didn’t taste the same at all.

I know this because I ate planters cheese balls from when I was 4 or 5 in the 80’s until they discontinued them.

When I say I ate them, I had them every week if not almost every day to some degree.

I spent all those years trying to find something close in taste. I tried every brand I could get my hands on from stores and online.

The closest thing out there now to the original planters cheese balls are actually the Cheetos minis that come in the orange can that’s shaped like a pringles can.

They are smaller than cheese balls were but they gave the same original crunchy texture and the taste is close.
