The ‘Cheez-It® Cheez-Hit Burger’ is the perfect combo of spicy chilli and tangy sour cream, and Cheez-It® Snap’d, the snack baked with 100% real cheese, providing that distinctive cheesy crunch with each succulent bite.  

The burger was crafted by deconstructing and reconstructing favourite Fat Hippo flavours, drawing inspiration from the hit US snack Cheez-It® and its Cheese, Sour Cream & Onion variety – fitting perfectly within Fat Hippo’s best-selling beef burger category. 

The ‘Cheez-It Cheez-Hit Burger’ starts with a juicy, premium double beef patty, grilled to perfection. It’s then topped with a generous portion of chilli cheese sauce, infusing every bite with a satisfying kick.  

A dollop of cool sour cream and chive adds a refreshing contrast, while a touch of mustard brings a subtle tang that ties it all together. Finally, Cheez-It® are added to the burger, delivering that unmistakable cheesy crunch. 

Since launching in the UK in August last year, Cheez-It® has taken UK cheese lovers by storm. Cheez-It® Snap’d are available in three flavours (Double Cheese, Cheese & Chilli, and Cheese, Sour Cream & Onion) and are baked (not fried) with 100% real cheese, offering the nation’s biggest fans of the yellow stuff an unforgettable cheesy and satisfying crunch.
