I have just tried this and would like to know (especially from anyone in the Cincinnati area) where it can be purchased. I found my bag at Jungle Jims and it was $2.49, a little pricey but I wanted to try it. Now I love it because you get so much for only 2 points!!
Thanks
I get mine at Trader Joes and its just $1.79 per bag - not too bad since its so good!!!
Check the trader joes website for locations near you. http://www.traderjoes.com
Good luck!

You can order directly from their website robgourmet.com and that will bring the price down a bit.
I buy the large size and then when I open a bag I immediatly break it down into four servings or else I can eat the whole bag!

They are really pretty good! Im not a cheetos fan. (Go figure I LOVE cheese) But these are much milder and I really do like them. A nice break from the Veggie Booty. I am one of the rare ones that actually like the Veggie one! I am lucky as I can find Pirate Booty at my Dominick's grocery store but I have bought them at Trader's too.

I'm going to see if I can find this stuff in my area. We don't have Trader Joe's, but maybe Whole Foods? Anyone in the Dallas area or TX heard of this??
Oh, and how many pts per serving?
Thanks

We don't have any Trader Joe's in the Cincinnati area, but I'll keep looking.
Just liz - I tried going to that site but couldn't get there. Is that the whole address? Let me know. Thanks\

Just liz - I did end up finding the site. It is www.robgormet.com. They sell the Pirate's Booty and the price is $25.00 for 12 bags. That's about $2.09 plus shipping (which I didn't even check into) A little too high right now. I keep searching locally!!
If anyone in the Cincinnati area knows, please let me know too!!

Aggie - Its 2pts per serving. A whole big bag is just 8pts. Not too bad - and they are really tasty puffy cheese doodle type snacks. I love them!!
I pay just 1.79 per bag - so the 2.09 a bag doesn't sound too bad for the case - since you have to pay shipping. I don't want to buy a case though - that is too much temptation!!
I like it for a salty snack that isn't high in points.

If I remember correctly, the price includes UPS shipping. It came to me w/in a week in CT the 2 times that I ordered it. I always buy the individual "snack size" bags from the web-site, but it's been a while since I ordered any.

Thanks for the info Jane. Do you remember how many points the individual bags are? I did go to the website and purchase them and it does include shipping. I also called their customer service office and found out where I can purchase it locally. I did that AFTER I ordered online but will still check out the stores for future reference.

Individual bags are 3 points. The NI makes it look like 2, but there's actually 1.25 servings in there, which is enough to push it over the line to 3 points.

Also a big fan. Usually get it at Trader Joes, but I can get it for a higher price at Fresh Fields (Whole Foods) and my local food coop.
The Coop had it on special and I bought a case! The clerk was teasing me that I'd have to special order it next time. I also like Fruity Booty (which is Mango flavored) and will eat Veggie Booty but it's not my favorite.

Michelle, where are you in MD? If you are anywhere near a MOM's (My Organic Market), they carry a lot of the Rob Gourmet items, including all three types of Booty, often in the portion-controlled 1.25 oz package. It's more expensive to buy them that way than to get the big package at TJ's, but I personally need the external control--I'll eat the whole bag, big, little, doesn't matter.

Hi ladies - I'm not sure how new this thread is but I find all of the "booty" in Shop Rite here in New Jersey as well as Trader Joes.
The caramel covered one is wonderful and of course, cheese addict that I am I adore the original "booty". Can't say that I love the veggie one but Fruity Booty is great too!
