So are Xtra Flamin' Hot Cheetos hard to find or what?
Also, really looking forward to trying that Taco Bell Flamin' Hot taco. If this pandemic didn't shake everything up, I'd be enjoying this right now during my work lunch hour at the nearby recently-remodeled Taco Bell. Oh well. Soon.

So I made something

Flaming Hot Cheeto Marshmellow Treats. Followed the regular rice krispies recipe but replaced them with Flaming Hot Cheetos. Lockdown is causing me to do weird stuff I normally would be too lazy to do.


Verdict: Actually not as bad as I expected. The intense sweet + sour is really odd, and the sweetness kinda overpowers an sense of heat until you're done eating it. I don't think I'd make them again, but I was expecting something puke quality.

Same actually. In fact I've only even been to our neighborhood Kroger once in the last four weeks. Safe at home pro right here.

Got the free FH taco earlier and it was somehow even worse then my extremely low expectations. They shouldn't even be allowed to call it flamin hot because it has 0 heat. Super disappointing.

So epilogue to the marshmellow treats. Turns out Cheeto Treats go stale very very quickly compared to normal rice krispy treats. They got worse very quickly.

I was sadly expecting this.. 75% of the time, any of the Doritos tacos I tried were either stale or flavorless. Not sure why.

Apologies if already posted, but they do these in the UK now...

And they are *proper* hot! Probably the hottest mass market crisps/chips I've ever had.

My Kroger still has never had Flamin Hot Fritos, but they did start carrying Turbos Flamas which, basically being Fritos Flavor Twists Flamin Hot Limon, is a damn good substitute.

I mean that's literally what they are. Frito Lay is the parent company. If you've never had them give them a try.

They really are very good. As are these:

WARNING: Not flamin' hot (and not on the same hot level as the above) but are in the same ballpark as they're "hot" (I think so anyway):

They're baked and puffy. So good.

I just saw Flamin' hot lime Doritos. Weird. I didn't like the regular flamin hot Doritos so I probably won't like this one.

They are claiming these will be their hottest Flamin' Hot snacks yet released in the US

so apparently hotter than both the Dill Pickle chips and the XXtra Hot Cheetos
