The, "I have Cheesy Wotsits," thread

[The Call of the Wendigo]

This afternoon, inspired by our recent Cheetos discussion, I bought a pack of Cheesy Wotsits for the first time since the mid-1990s.

It was a five pack.

I got it from Poundland.

They were very nice, although they did leave my fingers orange.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

It didn't actually say anywhere on the pack what they were, in terms of were they made from potatoes, corn, rice, whatever? It just said, "Baked," but baked what?

What recent Cheetos discussion?

I'm left out of everything.

'Corn puffs'

That'll be 'corn' in the American sense of sweetcorn (maize), I'll be bound....

Ingredients:

Maize, Rapeseed Oil, Cheese Flavour [Dried Cheese (from Milk) (7%), Milk Lactose, Flavour Enhancer (Disodium 5'-Ribonucleotide), Acid (Lactic Acid), Colours (Paprika Extract, Annatto), Natural Flavourings, Salt, Potassium Chloride].

What recent Cheetos discussion?

I'm left out of everything.

I seemed to remember us having a discussion about Cheetos, Fritos and Wotsits, but I can't find it on our own search or our google search, so it might just have been a wikihole I fell into one drunken night.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

We definitely had a discussion about Cheetos/Wotsits somewhere on the forum in recent weeks but I can't remember where or what prompted it.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

I remember that Oreos were also mentioned during it.

[Nightjar]

Nope.

I wasn't included.

This sort of thing is only going to get worse as we all get older

[Guest]

We had a conversation about Cheetos.





Nope, I can't find it either.

[Guest]

Nope. I think the search is totally broken now.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

I have just had a bag of Cheetos.

It was my first time eating them.

They are almost identical to Wotsits, except they don't leave an orange residue all over your fingers.

I think I prefer Wotsists, as the flavour is very slightly stronger.

[Nightjar]

I think I prefer Wotsists.

Wotsistence is futile.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

I've just had a big bag of spicy Wotsits and now I have a noticeably accelerated breathing rate. I think it's over-stimulated me.

I have two bags of Giant Wotsits in the cupboard. One is cheese flavour, other is spicey.

I slightly prefer these though:
