[edit] "Get some cheetos"
The "Get some cheetos" edit by 140.247.175.126 (talk) seems to be a paraphrase of [1]. The citation for the entry says, "by Mrob harvard Jan 29, 2006". That entry and a duplicate appear to be the only thing "Mrob" added to the Urban Dictionary. Seems like somebody is trying to coin a phrase; a violation of WP:NEO. —Pradeep Arya (Talk | Contrib) 09:23, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
- Agreed. In addition, Cheetos does not return any matches at http://www.thecrimson.com/ which is apparently the claimed source of the saying. -SCEhardT 23:26, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Genetically modified
I've removed this statement because it is not cited.
A recent study has shown that Cheetos contain the DNA of a genetically modified organism. (very likely corn)

- There is something from a little over five years ago [2], but we'll probably need more than an ancient link from CNN to justify that statement. —Pradeep Arya (Talk | Contrib) 05:20, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Cheetos recipe stolen"
I saw the commercial and cheetos recipe has stolen! Kids and parents help find the stolen recipe at cheetos dot com. --RCT Locomotion Wikipedia 01:51, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Side effects
I know Cheetos isn't medicine, but does it have unhealthy side effects? I ate half a bag of flamin's hot cheetos one day, and I sleep walked into my parents room and got acid reflux (or something like that) when I layed back down. Can someone tell me if eating too much of this stuff is dangerous, or if it was just an ingredient in the stuff?
- You can get kidney cancer by eating to much Shittos. Cuzandor 20:55, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Chester Cheetah
Isn't Chester Cheetah modelled off of the Pink Panther? 71.250.17.62 18:08, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Origins?
I heard that original cheetos recipe was intended as a dog treat but instead made a tasty snack for people when they added cheese. I don't have anything to back this up. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 12.226.72.188 (talk • contribs).
[edit] Origins II
I'm curious to know if Cheetos or Cheezies came first. The Cheezies web site only says "late 40s" but I have found some sources that say 1948 -- which is the same year as Cheetos. Unfortunately there is no wiki page for Cheezies. -- abfackeln 23:16, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Types of Cheetos
Do "Flamin' Hot Cheetos con Lucas" and "Hot Dog Flavored Cheetos" really exist? I would love to try the hot dog variety but I can't find them referenced anywhere else.
[edit] Mascots
Omission of the Cheetos Mouse seems a glaring oversight.
[edit] Neverwinter Nights Game Reference Verification
I am not a player of the game so can't personally verify this, but given that the game producer is based in Canada it seems likely that the game would refer to Cheezies http://www.cheezies.com/ and not Cheetos. While Cheetos are available in Canada their place in popular culture is generally taken by Cheezies. Could someone familiar with the game provide a reference to clarify this?
Have you noticed the over sported sun glasses?I bet they got tired of drawing his eyes!
[edit] "Minimal nutritional value"
Seems kinda POV to me in that location - if not OR. Besides, it only makes me want them more. Ribonucleic 21:36, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
