Get your Snack on with Frito-lays Munchies

I am a sucker for product placement; this purchase proves it, lol. While paying for gas (waiting in line) I seen the bags of Munchies on the rack conveniently placed next to the line. I scanned the different flavors (Cheese Fix, Flamin' Hot, and Totally Ranch) and I was feeling cheesy so I got the "Cheese Fix Munchies".

It has Crunchy Cheetos, Nacho Cheese Doritos, Rold Gold Pretzels, and Harvest Cheard Sun Chips. The 3 1/2 oz ($1.29) bag is a good size for up to two people. One person can snack on the bag all day. it is easy to eat about half the bag without thinking about it but you will regret it. It is just too much cheese flavoring. If there were more pretzels or regular Sun Chips to even it out it would be better. I hate that it leaves your fingers orange (of course, all of the snacks in this mix (except the pretzels) do that; it is just the price you pay for eating them, lol.

However, it puts these "munchies" in the category of "do not give to kids if you want them to stay clean, lol".

Aside from the need to mellow out the cheesy richness (this mix needs more pretzels. They were skimpy on them, also on the Cheetos.) There was mostly Sun Chips and Doritos.

I did like that the Sun Chips and Doritos were in mini form. They should sell big bags of the small triangle Doritos. There is almost nothing worst then trying to get a big (and/or awkward shaped) Doritos into your mouth, you get that orange stuff on your lips (face) or poke your gums biting down. The smaller ones are easier to manage.

Maybe I will send these thoughts about Munchies to Frito-Lay to see if they send coupons!
