Pirate’s Booty Aged White Cheddar 4 oz Bag
Our Aged White Cheddar puffs are baked rice and corn snacks made with real aged white cheddar cheese. Each Pirates Booty 4 oz bag is perfectly portioned for lunchboxes, road trips, or an afternoon pick-me-up at your desk.
We bake every puff—never fry—so you get the satisfying crunch and cheesy flavor without the heavy grease. The 4 oz size tucks into a backpack side pocket or diaper bag and seals easily between snack sessions. Gluten-free, made with no artificial flavors or preservatives, and a good source of calcium, these puffs deliver the salty-savory satisfaction families have loved for decades.
What’s inside your 4 oz bag
Ingredients & Nutrition Facts
Every Pirate’s Booty 4 oz bag starts with rice flour, corn meal, and sunflower oil, then we coat each puff with real aged white cheddar cheese. You’ll find no artificial flavors, no synthetic colors, and no hydrogenated oils on our ingredient panel.
Each 1 oz serving (about one generous handful) delivers 70 calories, 3.5 grams of fat, 130 mg of sodium, and 8 grams of carbohydrates. We add calcium carbonate to make every serving a good source of calcium—important for growing kids and active adults. The puffs are also a source of iron and contain small amounts of protein from the cheese and grains. Because we use rice and corn instead of wheat, the product is naturally gluten-free and safe for most people managing celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
Baked, Never Fried—and What That Means for Texture
We bake our puffs in specialized ovens that expand the rice and corn under controlled heat and pressure. That process creates the signature airy crunch without dunking anything in a fryer. You get a light, melt-in-your-mouth texture that doesn’t coat your fingers in grease or leave an oily residue at the bottom of the bag.
Why Baking Matters
Baking also preserves more of the aged cheddar’s natural flavor. Frying can mask cheese notes under heavy oil, but our method lets the sharp, tangy cheddar come through in every bite. The result is a snack that tastes indulgent but feels lighter—especially when you’re packing it for kids who need energy without the post-snack crash. The same gentle baking process we use for our aged white cheddar puffs in larger formats carries over to every bag size, so you get consistent flavor whether you buy a single-serve pouch or a family pack.
Storage & Freshness Tips
The 4 oz bag includes a resealable zip-top closure to lock in crunch between snacking sessions. After opening, press out as much air as possible before sealing to keep the puffs from going stale. Store the bag in a cool, dry pantry—heat and humidity can soften the texture.
An unopened bag stays fresh until the best-by date printed on the back panel, typically several months from purchase. Once opened, aim to finish the bag within five to seven days for peak crunch. If you live in a very humid climate, consider transferring leftover puffs to an airtight container with a silica packet. Refrigeration isn’t necessary and can actually introduce moisture when you bring the bag back to room temperature.
