Description
I believe this is the name of a bite-sized processed cheese snack that was individually wrapped in cellophane wrappers and bagged. They were kept in the dairy case with the other processed cheeses. I believe Kraft made them and came in two flavors: sharp and mild. There was maybe 40 in a bag and really tasty! I remember my sister and I polishing off a whole bag of the stuff in front of the T.V. the day my mother brought them home from the store.

I remember them. I didn't eat them, but I remember them.
I was thinking of them the other dya and wondered what happened to them! I remember them from a kid down the street that had a bag and i tried them. I think I mooched about 10 before he went inside.
These were awesome: the mild flavor was the best. Totally processed, but just a perfect texture and taste.
My grandmother always had a bag of cheese kisses in the fridge, they were one of my favorite childhood snacks!! I didn't think anyone else remembered them... late 70's early 80's I think. They were yummy and I wish they'd bring them back!
My daughter and I were talking about cheese squares which she had today and I told her about cheee kisses. I figured I'd google it and I found this sight.
I REMEMBER THOSE! I have never come across anyone that remembers them! This website is FUN!
I've thought about cheese kisses from time to time over the years. I figured someone out there must remember them. I think it was a snack before its time.
They were so good. My mom would buy them and I'd have them as a snack after school.
This is too funny. I am reading The Stand by Stephen King and he mentions them in the book. I thought it was just one of those things that Stephen King throws into his books to throw people off, but I had my husband look it up anyway. Go figure they are real, who would have guessed.
For the past 25 years or so, I've had everyone thinking I was insane. I'd ask people about cheese kisses and they would say I was thinking of cheese curds. NO, kisses I'd say. My grandma used to buy these for me and I've been thinking about them my whole adult life. Horrible loss, the vanishing kisses! Thanks for this site. I'm glad I'm not nuts.
I loved Cheese Kisses! They came individually wrapped. They came in three flavors I believe. Cheddar, American, and Swiss. I liked the American best. I also remember the commercial where the teenage girl is sitting on the stairs talking on the phone with a bag of kisses in her lap and her brother goes by and steals the bag. They came out in the late 70s, about 1977 I think. Ah memories.
i have to laugh bethany. i am also reading the stand, and had no idea what cheese kisses were. hooray for the internet, and information!

To Bethany & Tangeria -- I have read The Stand every year for the last 12 years. Everytime I thought Stephen King had just made them up. Today I decided to look on the internet and found this website!! Awesome!!!!
