Cheese tastes like paint – Since changing the packaging, the cheese tastes like paint. For the first time in years, I tried a house brand and enjoyed it much better than the Le Snack. I doubt if I will ever go back to pay more for what is now a much lesser product.
Cheese tastes terrible since they’ve changed pack lid from foil based to plastic. I have bought this product for decades. It has changed over time but now the plastic/chemical tasting cheese makes it close to inedible. Show details
Why change something good? – Not nice. I have spent my life eating these biscuits from my school lunchbox to now adulthood. Something has changed recently and the taste is not nice. Doesn’t taste good at all, almost like something I’m not meant to eat. It’s gross. Used to love the originals. Why change something if it was never broken to begin with? Not buying again.

Came with a disease omg never eating again ever lord
Not very happy went to have my morning tea and opened the packet french onion and crackers to find this see photo wont be buying le snak again
Fine dining but not durable for harsh environments – I bought some Le-Snak French onion in order to savor the delicious flavors at a later date. Unfortunately the box of Le-Snack was not durable enough to survive a 4WD trip where several objects and a fridge landed on it. Packaging needs to be more durable to protect contents from fridge damage. 9/10 would eat again. Show details

Literally the yummest thing ive ever eaten – it all started out one afternoon when I was dropping my nana home, I secretly stole a pack from her collection. This is where my addiction began. I can't stop and I won't stop. They are literally the tastiest, delicious, delectable snacks on the market. however, don't buy them because I need more for myself. Show details · 1
Just as great as I remember! – I ate these when I was at primary school, and had a craving almost 15 years later to discover that these are just as good as I remember. I live in New York now, and have my friends bring boxes over whenever they come to visit. Crackers are perfectly crunchy, and cheese is spreadable and the perfect portion.
Le Snak is le quintessential lunchtime snak – To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Le Snak. The flavor is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of the oral muscles most of the palatte will go over a typical consumer's tastebuds. There's the delectable gamut of Uncle Toby's inviting flavors, which is deftly woven Le Snak's unique characterisation - their internal… Read more
chemistry draws heavily from Guy Fieri literature, for instance. Le fans understand this stuff; they have the digestive capacity to truly appreciate the nuance, to realize that they're not just tasty- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Le Snak truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the meaning in it's existencial catchphrase "Powered by Oats," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Uncle Toby's genius unfolds itself in their mouths. What fools... how I pity them.
Negative reviews
Chemical taste – Would give 0 stars if available, I used to love Le Snaks but since packaging has changed the cheese tastes like chemicals. Wont buy again unless the taste goes back to normal.
Yuck – Been buying these for years and they have changed the packaging to a cheap flimsy plastic and as others have mentioned they now taste like chemicals due to the glue getting into the cheese.
New packaging – I have been buying this product for years however, since the new packaging it tastes totally different. Did something change as the taste now is quite unpleasant. Show details

Not happy with recent purchases of this product – Lately the pack has a strong glue smell when newly openened and doesnt taste right. I am worried the glue used to seal the packet is leaching into the contents. I used to like them, but will not be purchasing them anymore.
Gone downhill – Bought a pack last week as they were on sale, haven't purchased for a couple of months. OMG new packaging sucks and the size is smaller. The cheese and/or crackers have changed flavour/ingredients. Smells awful and leaves a bad chemical taste in your mouth. Won't be buying these again. Show details
YUCK, YUCK!!!! – YUCK!!!! I have had these in my cupboard over the years and are a go to being a busy mum and working. Last 2 batches (both since August 2024 and both years within use by) have a horrible chemical smell and taste have thrown both out. Purchased 2nd batch (one in QLD and one in WA) thinking maybe it was a batch issue but same taste............
Horrible new cheaper packaging that is no good for your health – They have changed the packaging to a cheaper and harder to open packaging. The glue that binds the seal to the container stinks and also imparts a flavour into the cheese dip. Thought the cheese had gone off at first. Wasn't that lucky. Definitely not suitable for children. Show details
So terrible – The bean counters have struck again - I bought these after many years, only to find enough cheese dip for one whole cracker, when they give you three. And sub par crackers. Along with weirdly tasteless cheese! I bought Cheddar cheese and French onion, not a lot of difference between except the onion was slightly sweeter and they waved an onion… Read more
over the machine at some point.
It'd be an appreciable source of calcium for one small earthworm, if you want to believe the 'technically correct' sales pitch on the pack.
Went to a well known alternate grocer instead and got real cheese slices and crackers - one whole slice for each cracker!
Yet again Uncle Toby's succeeds in total disappointment. At least these well known brands are consistent in their plunge toward the wrong side of mediocrity.
cost cutting to save a buck or two ruins old time favourite – "Le Snack" cheese n crackers, cannot be too hard to get right.... right? Apparently not. When someone down in Uncle Toby's land asked down the chain, "how can we increase the profit margins and make our business bring us more dollerydoos?" someone thought it was a rich idea to just sneakily change up how much cheese would be in each le snack.… Read more
Sure, its been done before, one example that comes to mind is pizzas. A few cheeky franchised reduced the diameter of pizzas slightly, while slightly increasing the crust size and it saves plenty of 'dough'. Just because it has been done before doesnt make it right OR a good idea. Its clear that the cheese side of the moulded container is elongated in order to make there less room for cheese. You literally dont have enough cheese for any more than 2 crackers.... even spreading it finely. Shame on them
Can’t eat – Bought my 3rd lot after binning the first two only to find they all the same. Different recipe an inedible as far as I’m concerned. Cheese is hard and very strong . No longer soft and creamy. Dissatisfied and very disappointed Show details
Hard to open – Hard to open the package, goodness knows how a child is supposed to manage . Tasty product and handy for lunch boxes but please make it easier for fingers to open Show details
Snack sized for a rat – Ok there are 3 crackers wow! There is barely enough cheese to dip 2 of those crackers into! Need to ad another cracker so there’s 4 + the amount of cheese needs to be at least doubled because there is so little of it that it is in actual fact ridiculous! Pick up your game uncle Toby !!

A rushed prepackaged modern meal substitute – The “cheese” spread to start with, is a processed substitute for normal cheese for starters and tastes like most artificial proceeded foods. The three accompying small salty crackers are what you also would expect from modern processed foods. So yes in a pinch and if your lazy I suppose occasionally this small serving of artificial ‘food’ might be a substitute, if you must indulge in quick dirty food fixes. Show details
This is horrible! The cheese tastes like chemicals. Plus, they stole from bluebird. I was vomiting the next day. Nasty – Well, This cheese made me throw up. Eew. Crackers, Disgusting. Whole thing? Copy of bluebird. Show details
I was sick from the cheese – Yesterday I brought a box at woolworths in booval qld. And I was throwing up after a bite. That's when I noticed the cheese was all oily like their was something put in it. Don't no what it was but I will never buy again.didn't save keep it. Just throw it in the bin Show details
Stale biscuits – I always carry these for morning tea at work but was very disappointed at the last purchase when the whole box of biscuits were stale. When only purchased 2 days before at woolies Katoomba.
Changed product - for the worse – I haven't had these for a few months and then bought one pack yesterday. It looks like they changed the recipes. The biscuits are very different and now have poppy seeds in them???? And the cheese seems too soft and watery. Just doesn't taste right. Used to be a family favourite snack for decades, now I'm going to stop buying it.
Rotten cheese contaminated – Found something disgusting in. The cheese tonight from a brand new box bought 2 days ago thankfully i have not eaten any of it, will never be buying again.
Almost food poisoning – Found rotten cheese in one of the pack. Was just about to give it to my 3 year old. Don’t know what made me open it myself and smell it. Very unlikely of me to do so because baby usually wants to rip the pack himself, guess I can thanks my lucky stars. I just got a freight, as I also unknowingly had licked the foil, I realised that the… Read more
cheese was contaminated and that I had just licked the rotten foul smelling cheese.
I was so relieved that my baby was all safe ( also happens that daddy dear packs it usually in buns snack box for kindergarten) . Well Bub was safe and protected by his mum dear( thanks my maternal instincts), but just after a while I started to feel nauseous, and later about in about an hour, I threw up. Feeling so sick and disgusted for blindly trusting these big brands .
Le 'Snak'? more like 'Le Nibble' – Wassup Uncle Tobys?? I got some Le snaks because I had memories of them being awesome, i was met with extreme dissapointment as the serving size is tiny now. Why Uncle Tobys why!!!!!!! They are at least 30% smaller than they used to be. You can't fool me with your curved cheese section optical trickery, I know damn well you went stingy on the… Read more
cheese, also, weren't there 4 biscuits?? where did that extra biscuit go!!!! You csn shove your Le dissapointments up yo Uncle Tobys.
