I knew instantly because I ADORE Sweetos and could recognize that sweet cinnamon-y cheetle anywhere (I&#8217;ve had over ten bags since their inception), and this year I was able to confirm it. For the first time ever, Cheetos&#8217; Bag of Bones is available in Cinnamon Sugar (aka spooky Sweetos), and the ingredients check out &#8211; brown sugar, spices (including cinnamon), buttermilk, and molasses &#8211; they&#8217;re the same.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion:<\/h3>\n<p>Smartfood cinnamon sugar-flavored popcorn, whether it&#8217;s supposed to taste like a doughnut or cookie, is absolutely delicious. It&#8217;s a higher volume and lower calorie way to get my Sweetos fix, and while it may not have the same oily fatty airy crunch of a puffed Cheeto, it has the satisfying salty snap of popcorn, and I&#8217;m already trying to hunt down my next bag.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Purchased Price:<\/strong> $1.99<br \/>\n<strong>Size:<\/strong> 2 oz bag<br \/>\n<strong>Purchased at:<\/strong> ampm<br \/>\n<strong>Rating:<\/strong> 9 out of 10<br \/>\n<strong>Nutrition Facts:<\/strong> (2 1\/2 cups &#8211; 28 grams) 150 calories, 8 grams of fat, 1 gram of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 0 milligrams of cholesterol, 140 milligrams of sodium, 17 grams of carbohydrates, 2 grams of fiber, 4 grams of sugar, and 2 grams of protein.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is Smartfood Cinnamon Sugar Doughnut Popcorn?
