Cheetos Twisted
So apparently I rant too much, so let's stay away from that for bit. Let's talk about something that's just all love. Cheetos. Maybe you remember the good times with the Flaming hot cheetos with limón Today I want to talk about another type of Cheetos Twisted. I know it's not a brand new product on the junk food scene, but it was new to me when I had it. And the world revolves around me and poofy cheesy snacks. Plus, when something is glowing flourescent orange it has to be good.
Unlike normal cheesy poofs, Cheetos Twisted is coiled up like a spring. A spring of awesomeness that you can't stop putting in your mouth right before dinner. You can appreciate the design of such a poof, because the poof is actually of the same diameter as a regular poof. And when you coil it up like that, you can get more 'cheese' per bite. Unlike the world's largest cheeto (see here), you get a proper cheese to corn puff ratio. This is key because at the heart of this luxurious snack is corn. And unless you mask that corny taste, you're going to think it's some kind of stale breakfast cereal. Kudos to Frito Lay for not making the same mistake on the Cheetos Twisted as they did with that giant cheetos crap.
The only drawback to cheetos twisted is that it doesn't melt in your mouth the same way ordinary cheesy poofs would. I mean, that's kind of what makes cheesy poofs so great. So with Cheetos Twisted, there's my teeth chomping action going on, because you gotta break it down. In the end, I think Cheetos Twisted is an ok concept. Maybe they could pair it with the same reddish 'cheese' that they put on the Flaming Hot ones. Now that's something I can definitely get behind...
@Yvo,
this is what it's come to, us all talking about poo. I'm never going to look at cheetos the same way again!

What I really didn't like about these was the fact that the serving size was something really sad, like 7. Who eats only 7 of these things at a time?

@bionicgrrrl,
haha, eating cheetos at the parents' house is the way to go apparently. The shape is definitely a little poo like, you're right.

Ummm, you may want to see a doctor about that. My poo totally does not coil.
I am giggling... reminds me of those Chinese comic books that I can't read but as a kid would flip through, and the poo was always this weird pile of coiled up mass with smell lines coming from it. Who poos like that??? Reminds me of frozen yogurt.
