One of my favorite things about original Cheetos is the orange dust on my fingers at the end of a snacking session. Even when the bag is gone, you still get the bonus of licking the magic dust off your digits. (I would tell you that my dog also likes licking Cheetos dust off my fingers, but that would be gross). As for the Summertime Ranch dust, it\u2019s more of a greasy, speckled coating. <\/p>\n
I can\u2019t say that I\u2019ve tried every variety of Cheetos, but I\u2019m pretty sure I\u2019ve munched through at least half, and this one lands toward the bottom of the rankings. Ranch flavor goes well with many things \u2014 chips, chicken wings, pizza \u2014 and I\u2019ve even heard people use it on something called a \u201csalad.\u201d<\/p>\n
Maybe it\u2019s because the snack food industry has conditioned me to believe that Cool Ranch goes with chips and cheese flavor goes with puffs, but this flavor flip was a bit of a disappointment.<\/p>\n

\nSize:<\/b> 2 5\/8 oz. bag
\nPurchased at:<\/b> Walmart
\nRating:<\/b> 5 out of 10
\nPros:<\/b> Nice replication of Doritos Cool Ranch flavor. Pretty cool photo of Chester Cheetah on the bag.
\nCons:<\/b> Lack of any Cheetos cheese flavor. Instead of magical cheese dust on your fingers you just get a greasy coating. Not really anything \u201csummertime\u201d about it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Back in the olden days, there were two varieties of Cheetos: regular (crunchy) and puffs. Those were dark times for snack food lovers, although as someone who lived through that deprived era I guess I didn\u2019t know what I was missing. Perhaps I was even thankful to have two choices, laughing at my parents who […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":52,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_seo_schema_type":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1440],"tags":[1535,1474],"class_list":["post-28738","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-reviews","tag-cheetos","tag-chips"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":28643,"url":"https:\/\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/2018\/05\/07\/spotted-on-shelves-cheetos-stars-summertime-ranch\/","url_meta":{"origin":28738,"position":0},"title":"SPOTTED ON SHELVES: Cheetos Stars Summertime Ranch","author":"Marvo","date":"May 7, 2018","format":false,"excerpt":"It ain't easy being cheesy with every single variety of Cheetos.
