Marinas Menu & Lifestyle: They are Back! PLANTERS CHEEZ BALLS and CHEEZ CURLS

Cheez Balls and Cheez Curls fans have something to celebrate! These favorites are now available for purchase! Ever since the products disappeared from the shelves in 2006, many people have been longing for the cheesy delights. In fact, for the past 12 years, people have been urging Planters to bring them back by developing petitions, creating online groups, and writing snail mail letters asking the company to start producing and selling them again. Their revival proves that the snacking public can make a difference.

"We heard many impassioned pleas for us to bring Cheez Balls and Cheez Curls back over the years and we wanted to give our fans a chance to reunite with their most-missed cheesy snack," said Planters Head of Brand Building Melanie Huet. "We made sure our Cheez Balls and Cheez Curls still have the same delicious taste, airy texture and fluorescent color you know and love, so our fans can enjoy a nostalgic trip down memory lane with every canister."

For all of us that have loved Cheez Balls and Cheez Curls, the blue canisters with Mr. Peanut on the label can now be purchased online and at retailers nationwide. They will be available on Amazon and Walmart.com in July for a suggested retail price of $1.99 with more stores offering the snacks in the coming months.
