Cheetos are a popular cheese-flavored snack originating from the United States, introduced by Frito-Lay in 1948. These crunchy, puffed corn snacks are coated with a distinctive cheese seasoning that creates their bold flavor and vibrant orange color. The main ingredients include cornmeal, vegetable oil, and various flavorings, along with artificial coloring and preservatives. While Cheetos deliver satisfying crunch and flavor, they are primarily considered a treat due to their high fat, calorie, and sodium content. They offer minimal nutritional value, lacking significant vitamins, minerals, or protein. Cheetos are often enjoyed as part of American junk food cuisine, known for their convenience and addictive taste. Given their processed nature and low nutrient density, moderation is recommended when indulging in this iconic snack.
