Frito-Lay Baked Cheetos Reviews

So, it happens to all of us, especially us women.  Sometimes... I just have to have something crunchy, salty, and bad for me.  And I don't want 10 of them, I want... 30 something of them.  Which is great, because a serving of Baked Crunchy Cheetos is about 35 pieces.

The Pros:

On the positive side, this Baked product can totally match up in the crunch arena to the original product, which is fried.  (Fun Fact: puffed Cheetos, not from the Baked line, are baked.  I learned this on Unwrapped, a great Food Network show.)

They are visually pretty much the same, so this is also great mental trickery...

Frito Lays Cheetos are chrunchy and Deliously cheesy! I like the small serving size so if I eat the whole bag I don't feel to guilty! These are a yummy treat! My whole family enjoys the baked Frito chip variety! You should try a couple of flavors today, to make lunch just a bit more scrumptious! I especially enjoy the Hot Cheetos!

I decided to buy a regular size bag of these at Walmart the other day.  When I opened them (the same day I bought them) thinking that I'd be digging into a still tasty but less sinful version of the original, I was horribly disgusted.

This is my first try of baked cheetos, so I'm not sure if the disgusting flavor was from my bag only or if the nastiness is consistent across the board.

It tasted like I was eating plastic or something very similar to it with a light very underflavored dusting of cheese (?????).  There was more of a chemical or plastic flavor to these little bites than anything....

Recently, I  tried Frito-Lay baked Cheetos as my husband raved about them. Since we are both snack lovers, I was willing to give these a chance. I was a bit doubtful that they would taste similar to the regular Cheetos snack. However, I was very impressed. First of all, when dieting, it is hard to find substitute products that have flavor and are low in calories. These snacks are perfect! Not only do they have the same delicious crunch as regular Cheetos snacks, they have the same flavor, not a chemical or bland taste as some of the dietary products that are on the market.

I am also very impressed...

I really like to eat these as a snack in the evening. I open the bag, curl up with a good book and crunch.  But you need to be careful for the orange powder. It can get on your book so that is not so good.  But I love the taste and curch.  Again, they are messy to eat.  The orange powder drives my husband nuts. He would like if I didn't eat them because they are messy.  But I like them.

If you like the crunch than this is where its at. You can tell that they are baked they got a natural taste to them. When I first tried the chips I liked the flavor of them off top. They seems to be more cheesy to me but you know eveybody has they own opinon when it comes to flavor, but I think everybody will agree with me on these chips, they are a great snack chip
