If you think about it, it's rather amazing that in the year 2008 they're still coming up with new kinds of crackers. Haven't we already been through every cracker combo, chip/cracker combinations, exotic flavors and various shapes? Now Keebler has a snack that is cracker on one side and pretzel on the other., Flipsides. If you're in one of those moods where you don't know if you want something salty or something buttery (they also come in cheddar, but I've only tried the original so far).
Actually, they're pretty good. At first I thought they were going to be either a.) bland, or b.) a situation where one flavor overwhelms the other. But they're pretty tasty, and you can actually taste the pretzel side and the cracker side at different times as it moves around in your mouth.
I haven't tried any toppings on them yet, but they're good right out of the box.

I have a friend who is already addicted to these things, I have to be careful because I never know how to stop at one or two.

I like everything and anything pretzel. Soft pretzels, hard pretzels, pretzel bread, pretzel croissants. I love them. These crackers? Delicious. I was expecting them to be like the pretzel skin crackers available now -- or Pretzel Slims, whatever you want to call them -- which are hard and thin and just taste like pretzel skin. Instead, they are actually more like Pretzel Pastry. Very flaky and light. Very addictive. I've tried both flavors, and won't buy the cheese again. It's not a strong cheesy flavor, but even the little bit it has, and the faux orange dye, just detracts from the pretzel flavor. They are not a repeat buy, but the originals asre definately a repeat buy.
