History

Cheese Nips, originally stylized as "Cheese-Nips", were introduced in 1955.[1]

Cheese Nips is the name of Act 1 Track 8 of the off-Broadway musical Kurt Vonnegut's God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater.[3] In this satire, Sylvia becomes deranged watching her guests prefer Cheese Nips to her other food preparation.[4]

Statista calculates that in 2016, 1.5 million Americans consumed eight or more bags of Cheese Nips.[5]
