It's tough for many Americans to pass by Ritz crackers.
Americans may not be able to agree on much these days, but we can usually be counted on to unite around one thing: The chip bowl.
Americans love their salty snacks, but some are more favored than others. YouGov BrandIndex on Monday released its list of the top 10 items we like to crunch on.
The annual list is based on the company’s daily polls of around 5,000 Americans. The researchers asked people if they had a generally positive feeling about a wide variety of snack brands, and assigns a score based on subtracting the negative scores from the positive ones.
Ritz topped the list. The round, golden, buttery cracker and its distinctive red packaging may be an old favorite, but it’s apparently been able to keep its loyal following through the years.
No. 2 on the list was Lay’s potato chips, followed by Doritos. The list was little changed from last year.
Here’s the full rundown:
- Ritz
- Lay’s
- Doritos
- Fritos
- Orville Redenbacher
- Wheat Thins
- Tostitos
- Cheetos
- Pringles
- Triscuit

Not surprising considering the number of overweight and obese people in America. These foods are killing us and we do little to stop it.
Cheez-Its. That is why I rarely have them in my house.
They last about 3 days; if I pace myself.
Popcorn is usually a 'snack' staple in my home.
I also keep a good bit of popcorn for snacks. Also been impressed with popships due to the ingrediant label being in basic English and the low calories for a good tasting snack.
Kellogg's granola bars - sweet and chewy
I like barbecue potato chips for breakfast.
I "like" them all. But I rarely (almost never) buy them -- because I "like" living MORE than I like killing myself with junk food.
Wise "Cheese Doodles".
As an east coaster living in mainland China, I often long for them. Unfortunately, Cheetos, which are available, just can't scratch that itch : (
CHEETO's
Utz Salt & Vinegar chips.....yum!
I like Special K Cracker Chips!
Not to worry, the government will take care of us. Food Stamps to buy the crap with and Obamacare to cut it out of us. Who could ask for anything more? I forgot, when are we going to get our beer & smokes allowance? Nevermind, that what that check the government sends is for.
Just goes to show that some people will turn any discussion into a political attack. Lame, very lame.
You may be correct, but Paul-2539759 hit the nail on the head.
It wasn't intended as a political attack, it was intended to describe OUR broken system.
Didn't mean to expose you Michigan Voter, but I guess sometimes the truth is what it is.
pretzels.
Cheetos and/or Wheat Thins--Both of these are great when dipped in low calorie/low fat ranch dip

Food Should Taste Good Multigrain Chips. Gluten Free, healthy and delicious. Love them with Sabra Hummus.

My favorite is the family size bag of fritos. I eat about 3 bags a day.
Depends on what kind of snacking you're doing. Why is CHOCOLATE not on the list? Because this study is likely put up by big names in snack foods. Not a complete list for sure.
pretzel rods, fritos scoops
B.K. Heuermann's Popcorn by far the best!!
In addition to Triscuits, I love Snyder's Of Hanover Sourdough Pretzel Nuggets. Those go fast in my house.
