English term

can't stop eating/chewing it!

English Marketing Food & Drink Catchline/Slogan
I am looking for a short phrase that conveys or indicates the above meaning (kind of a "food-equivalent" of page-turner for books). It will be applied to a crispy cassava cracker product. Will tongue-teaser be OK?

Thanks in advance.

Crispy casava crackers are a party for your palate

It's so good it's like a great party you never want to end. It's like a Lay's potato chip-you can't eat just one(this is copyrighted so you can't use it) It's so scrumptious, your mouth turns into a crispy cassava cracker chomper that chomps on these crackers day and night.

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thank you everyone; both answerers and *commentators*. Consultation w/ the end user resulted in choosing Yolanda's answer w/ a bit modif: either "your palate fiesta" or "our palate fiesta". We're to see the psychological effects of using "your" and "our". Thanks Yolanda. Dave made a breakthrough proposal w/ "moreish"; can be a popular word; yet the client is a bit conservative. :| Caryl also came up w/ a good answer; yet, we were looking for word(s) about unstoppable eating. (Personally, I prefer imagining that crunching sound to some festivity in my mouth.) Buck, thanks for being the first to respond and comment on tongue-teaser. Although (I thought) "cant get enough" has been used by someone else, you might inspire the other answerers; that's big contribution for sure!"

can't get enough

Hi. As a native speaker of English, I wouldn't immediately associate tongue teaser with food (or anything, for that matter). I think something along the lines of can't get enough, or maybe once you start (eating), you can't stop. Just my suggestion, though.

mouthwateringly moreish

or mouthwatering and moreish

IMHO

moreish means it is so good you want more
Peer comment(s):

agree William [Bill] Gray : Good, Dave. But I would go for Yolanda's suggestion as a number one, if Erich can use that many words. Yours wins on brevity!

Thanks, Bill (:-{)> I like her later alliteration too!
neutral R. Alex Jenkins : Brilliant Dave, but is the average cracker customer going to know what moreish is?

crispy cassave crackers - the crunch you crave

Or, if you have to keep the phrase short - then simply:

'the crunch you crave' would probably also work

cassavA - sorry about the typo

Or you could also use:

'...the crunch you'll crave' (once you've tried them)
