Cheetos.

My two youngest kids, age 9 and 7, were having a discussion about the 2 varieties of Cheetos. My daughter likes the crunchier, harder ones and my son likes the puffier ones. They discussed the various virtues of both kinds with my daughter being very descriptive in her statements about the ones she didn't like. The conversation ended with my 7-year-old whining loudly "But the disgusting, nasty, puffy ones are the ones I like."

  1. I love them both because they leave my fingers orange and I can scrape it off with my teeth!

    Thanks for encouraging me to enter the writing contest. I did and I was a winner!

  2. They both have their place. I do not like the color changing ones though.

    In college my roommate and I used to get the generic, store brand puffy ones and eat whole bags at a time. They are actually quite good.

  4. I guess the coloring changing ones were only out for a limited time. They turned blue when you ate them. I found an old press release about them on Frito Lay's website: http://www.fritolay.com/fl/flstore/cgi-bin/ProdDetEv_Cat_304_SubCat_352003_NavRoot_303_ProdID_352998.htm

    Just as well they aren't out anymore, they were icky.
