I've been wanting to run this poll for months. Now that I'm laid up with a bad knee, and I need a break from picking fights at THR general, I can ask - Why the cheeto hate?

Sure, they're the favorite snack food of basement dwelling, wookie suited politicos, but for more than sixty years, the Cheeto has been a staple in the snack food realm.

What say you? Will the recent bad press diminish your cheezypoof love?
Are these sponge chips nothing you'll let cross your lips?

Have at it.

edit to add: I like the crunchy ones

I prefer the crunchy ones.

I also tend to limit my intake, due to the dreaded orange finger syndrome.

I care nothing about their street rep, I'm just not a fan of them.

I like them but they tend to stick to my teeth which I don't like.

I like the dynamite hot crunchy ones.

I actually find the Wal-Mart Great Value crunchy cheese puffs to be better than the name brand Cheetos. The GV brand is perceptibly cheesier.

Voted for the skin discoloration effect - but it will in fact clear up after a bit...

There's a really good cheese doodle we sometimes get at Walgreen's. They have a lot of cheese coating on them which is pretty good.

I also like the really big round container of cheese balls we sometimes get at Menard's.

I must admit that the original crunchy Cheetos are my favorite, but I like to try lots of different brands as well.

I just never cared much for them. I'll eat a few sometimes when they're available at a party or something, but they don't tickle my tastebuds much.

I much prefer the crunchy Cheetos. For some reason I always end up having to pick the puffy ones out of my teeth.

I also like the Crunchy Cheetos as part of the Munchies "Cheese Fix" snak mix:

P.S. I am writing this from my very own dining room.

Chesters brand hot fries are like crack. Orange-fingered crack.

BridgeRunner · « **Reply #11 on:** August 11, 2009, 12:56:08 AM »

Crunchy. Also, very occasionally.

I voted other, since my bagged cheese snack of choice was Andy Capp's Hot Fries. I've pretty much quit eating anything chip or cheeto like in my moderate effort to lose some weight and return to a reasonable level of fitness. It seems to be working.

Utz Cheese Curls.

Thread win

Utz are just yummy, all the way around, and I can eat about half a bag of curls myself.

Puffs for me but I have a weakness for Planters cheese balls.

They still make those? I thought they pulled them off the market years ago. And yes, they are VERY good.

Crunchy.

The hot ones really didn't do anything for me, but apparently little kids love them.

(Get you mind out of the gutter! My wife is a kindergarten teacher.)

SADShooter · « **Reply #21 on:** August 11, 2009, 10:20:35 AM »

Occasional Puffs consumer here. I need to seek out the Planters. Haven't had them in years.

I'm not sure how you could take that the wrong way. Perhaps my mind simply isn't dirty enough...

I've noticed the same thing
Funny how that works that way.

Did you ever suck the jelly out of a jelly doughnut and then fill it with chocolate swirl ice cream?
