Reader Aaron was intrigued. He likes both Mountain Dew and Cheetos, and learned from our site that an unholy hybrid of these two products was now available in snack food form in Japan. He knew what he had to do: order them and eat them.

He sent along photos and this review.

The taste was not quite what I expected, but not at all unpleasant.  In fact, the Cheetos taste like they’ve been seasoned with Pica Limon packets instead of bright orange cheese.  If you’re not familiar, Pica Limon is a Mexican candy that was popular when I was in elementary school.
