Warning....

These are badddd....cuz they're GOOD.

Sorta explains the "Cheetos!" answer he-who-does-the-shopping gets to the "Is there anything you'd like?" question asked as he heads out the door to go shop.  Yup....addictive....guaranteed to disappear if a bowl is left within the reach of a "stuck on the couch" person....specially if IT KEEPS GETTING REFILLED!!!

It's become somewhat of a joke around here "Besides Cheetos--is there anything you'd like".

Last night.....I went to retrieve said Cheetos from the kitchen.  Empty bowl, dontchaknow.....  As I rustled through the cupboard to discover NO MORE CHEETOS, I could hear the footsteps fast and furious coming up the basement steps.
I settled for cookies (oh, there's a grand answer, huh?!) and kept moving.

Did we have Cheetos?
Uh huh.
Did he hide them just to get a rise outta me?
UH huh.  :-/
I'm gonna start hiding these things in cupboards and closets--behind boxes and in drawers at this rate.  LOL OMGosh.....

Yes well....

Great.  I have Cheetos in the bowl again.
BUT THERE'S NO RESERVE.

And there's (here's a surprise...) a snowstorm.


UH huh.....he who laughs first........  :-/

Hey Mel,
You are luckier than me; I have no Cheetos- period. They don't sell them here!!
I can find Bugles or even at some stores, Doritos or Tortilla chips. But... they are usually in teeny tiny sizes. No king sizes.

Good luck for surviving the munchies :).

Bwhahahahahaha! HILARIOUS, Mel!

Addictive, yes! I get them from Trader Joe's (their brand) and I can eat the whole bag in one sitting.

I have never had a Cheeto in my life...don't think you get them here! Mind you, I'm thinking that's not such a bad thing...don't need another addictive snack in my life..I'm bad enough with the ones I already have!!

My addiction is popcorn...popped stovetop with only salt. I would panic if I didn't have popcorn in the house.

When I quit smoking -24 years ago - I knew I had to learn to appreciate something safe to snack on and avoid becoming a blimp. I knew microwave and/or buttered popcorn were deadly so I began my discipline. I would nibble each piece like a little squirrel so as to savour the taste and make the bowl carry me through nicotine cravings.

Now, along with dark chocolate, salted popcorn is my junk food. I'm not a blimp, but I happily do fitness so I can have my monster bowl of salted popcorn with movies whenever I want.
