Mercadona has changed the snack game with its cheese tequeños.

Originating in Venezuela, tequeños are most popular there, yet they have found fans in the Middle East and beyond. While cheese is the traditional center, some versions feature meat or sausage. The classic pairing often includes a cheese dipping sauce, with options like cheddar, guacamole, or mayonnaise in the mix. This versatility makes tequeños a versatile option for parties, tapas nights, or simple family snacks. — Mercadona

For hosts seeking a distinct alternative, Mercadona offers cheese tequeños wrapped in a crisp dough that can be heated straight from the freezer. The preparation is straightforward: heat oil to about 180ºC in a pan or fryer, then dip and fry the tequeños for four to five minutes. A golden finish comes from turning them during cooking and timing stays tight to prevent the filling from leaking. No pre-defrosting is necessary; it’s a quick, satisfying option. — Mercadona
Mercadona’s low-fat cheese options suit many dietary plans
The cheese sticks use fresh cheese made from pasteurized cow’s milk at 43 percent, combined with wheat flour at 34 percent, plus butter, water, pasteurized liquid egg, sugar, panela syrup and salt. This combination means they are not suitable for everyone, particularly those with lactose intolerance, gluten sensitivity, or egg allergies. The sticks are sold in packs of 12 pieces and typically priced around four euros. For those seeking a lighter accompaniment, sour cream has become a fashionable pairing at Mercadona. If finding it in-store proves tricky, home preparation is straightforward and can be a fun kitchen project. — Mercadona
