Cheetos

As we were eating our healthfully delicious dinner tonight, I was wondering what these weird yummy little orange things called Cheetos REALLY are. I mean, potato chips, corn chips, french fries, chocolate, all obvious. But what kind of weird concoction are Cheetos? It says they’re cheesy, but we all KNOW that’s not actual CHEESE. Junk food…I think, literally.

And this blog entry…junk thought. :)

    Have you ever tried running one under water? It’ll scare you - what goes down the drain! We’ve probably bought more cheetos this past summer than in all 28 years of my marriage… the latest craving at our house. BTW, I just heard that they have new white cheddar ones with no preservatives or artificial anything. Cant wait to try them! Have a great night!

    My kids are currently obsessed with Cheetos… I think they are one of the grossest things (they cannot be called food) ever invented! LOL!

    I gave Cole a carrot once and he eagerly bit into it because he thought it was a Cheeto. Ha ha!!! Nope. Now he looks warily at his cheetos every time. ; )

    they are a corn based batter that is dropped into a big vat of oil, fried, and then coated with toxic orange yumminess.

    have you tried the baked Cheetoes? they are even better than the regular. cruchy and delicious without the oily film coating the roof of your mouth ;)

    some things are better eaten without knowing the ingredients. like hot dogs for instance. atleast cheetos are plant and chemical based. :)

    YOu are too funny! I have wondered this myself and why the heck kids love them so much and of course they have to be orange so they get everywhere! I think some evil person that didn’t like kids invented these to annoy mommies! ;)

    What’s really scary are the flaming hot cheetos - what exactly makes them hot - some chemical burn on your tongue or something?! What amazes me is how many kids I see at Timmy’s school eating them - they had to ban them because there were dyed orange smudges on the wall.
