Hot take: this shit is delicious. And I hate both Flaming Hot Cheetos and Takis.
It tastes wholly unnatural and looks more radioactive than my aunt from Hanford but daggum if it doesn’t taste wonderfully spicy and cheesy (in a velveeta kind of way)

I couldn't detect any cheesy flavour in this.
Is that Hanford, CA? lol, I remember the drinking water problem there.
It's like the FDA doesn't even exist anymore.
My cousin loves this shit and idk how. It's so fucking gross. The dude mixes imitation crab in with it and says it's incredible. 🤢
Lol is your cousin a wild animal? That's insane
I'm pretty sure most wild animals avoid capscasin like the plague....
oh, good point. @LaunchesKayaks is your cousin a seagull?
capscasin
Well yeah of course they do. Most wild animals don't know how to speak French
Which is fine, as the word capscasin originated in English in the 1800s
Propet spelling is "capsaicin".
dude, you're not kidding. I tried this and it was beyond revolting. I had to tell my wife that we're never trying any crazy flavor of mac and cheese again as long as I live.
It tasted like ass. Literally had to rinse my mouth out after the first bite.
Wait, is that Cheetos-flavored Mac and cheese, or Mac-and-cheese-flavored Cheetos?
It's Cheetos flavoured mac and cheese. I have trash tastes and had the jalapeno flavour once and I liked it.
Well, Cheddar Jalapeño is the best Cheeto flavor, so I can see that being the best Cheeto mac & cheese flavor too.
White cheddar? Those "simply" cheetos are fucking delicious.
Yeah those are pretty bad. The spiral pasta though can be used with other Mac and cheese instead if you have an extra box of this stuff. I find the Annie's brand to be the ultimate box Mac and cheese since it seems like they use actual cheese lol and not whatever garbage they have in the Cheetos flavoring packet.
+1 for Annie's being the best. Just objectively true. Their white cheddar is my favorite.
I feel the Jalapeno one was the least worst of the three.
The weird thing is, there is no other mac n cheese available in my country, or flaming hot Cheetos.
Would you like a simple Mac and cheese recipe that goes well with almost any pasta except for spaghetti or angel hair?
.....what the fuck?
The food importer really went balls to the wall freedom eagle liberty on you.
I made this once. Had everyone in my house try it. Multiple people gagged.
Can confirm, these are absolute trash. Every flavour.
More for me! Not a fan of the flaming hot flavour in general, but i really like the Jalepeno cheddar
You and me both! The regular one is really good too. I don't mess with flaming hot.
Oh my fucking God.....they are like shitty Cheeto soup

If you make it as-is then yeah, I'm sure it's pretty mediocre, but similar to ramen, if you use some simple food hacks, then this stuff is friggin' delicious. Here's some tips:
If you're going to go through all of that for Cheetos Mac n cheese you're far better off just cooking actual food.
Not true.
As with loaded ramen, it takes very little effort to make this kind of meal.
Yeah, it might seem complicated for a first-timer, but if you simply experiment a couple times, you'll hit on a personalised, tasty hot snack that you can pretty much make in your sleep.
Making a real meal doesn't take much effort also. Your talking about preparing boxed mac and cheese as if it's real cooking.
That's meaningless without an example, and just dodges the point of what I'm saying.
A "real meal" could be almost anything. Last night for example I was in the mood for french fries. So I spiralised a large potato, soaked it in two cold water baths (IYKYK), pressed, drained, brushed with oil, then spent about three 10min intervals air-frying and carefully turning & separating, repeat. Finally seasoning them and enjoying them.
Guess how much more effort that took than doing the loaded mac & cheese?
Dude. If you add veggies, spices and parmesan to pasta, that's a meal. You don't need a packet of Cheeto flavouring. It will only make it worse.
I'm just gonna take your word for it lmao
Water?! I've never made mac and cheese without milk, occasionally cream if it's all i got.
Then again i can't stand tomatoe soup made with water and not milk either.
Guess its just what you learned to expect from being a kid
It's like if Ramen was soaked in really gross Mac n cheese and also some how more unpleasant.
My son and I loved it! 😂
You need to feed your son better food lol
My son loved the idea, and went back to Cabot Mac and cheese the next time. To each their own. Sometimes a snack is whatever you can convince them to eat that day.
Fed is better than not fed.
I need those. I hope they make it into the German market.
Didn't they yet? I bought this at a Lidl in Poland.
The hottest spice I've ever tasted whenever I've been in Germany has been salt. Everything has been so mild, I'm pretty sure this will never be sold there.
But this shit wasn't spicy at all. It just tasted like vomit.
Pasta with Cheeto-flavored cheese flavoring.
So disappointing. No flavour in it at all.
Ok, so the packaging design made me think this was a faked cereal at first (you know, that you add milk to) and then I read that you tried some, and was genuinely horrified.
The reality in comparison is much less alarming lmao..
I'd probably at least try it if I still ate dairy.. ¯\(ツ)/¯
needs more tabasco
