Anyone else think the taste of Cheetos is different??

Opened a new bag of Cheetos , and darn it, they taste different. Now I know when we get older our taste buds change, but this was a real different taste......can it be a new taste or is it my taste buds??? Anyone else??

2. Check the salt level..Cheetos had over 400 mg of salt per oz.

We switched to the Baked Cheetos, they are pretty good. We rarely eat that kind of thing but once we tried them we started buying them more often. I am sure it will wear off. They are good, did you maybe get a package of them instead of the regular?

They taste better than I ever remember Cheetos tasting. And since they are white cheddar, they don't dye your fingers orange!

Which at the one I most often shop at is right at the main door so I see them every time I go. I have to fight myself not to grab a few bags, they are so good!
