Newsflash - Cheetos has spoken

[Justin_NSA]

Cheetos has made it official. That dusty cheese byproduct often called "Cheetos fingers" has a name, Cheetle.
I hate the stuff. It really stains the fiberglass. It's hard enough cleaning up after red wine!

no chips of any kind allowed on aeolus. one potato chip can stain the natueal teak for ten years.

Oh horrors! Like something seen cannot be unseen, this is definitely a case of something heard that I'll never be able to unhear!

I just don't understand your prejudice against an innocent group of snacks?

LOL I've seen that hand many times in past years

True story.... And I promise it is related to Cheetos.
I do research on electro-catalyst and I have one that mimics some of the properties of photosynthesis (i.e. makes carbon bonds from CO2). The problem is that the only solvent that is stable in the potential ranges of the catalyst is acetonitrile (i.e methyl-cyanide).

Anyway, if I run the electrolysis for more than five minutes the entire lab starts to smell like Cheetos. It is not just me who thinks it smells that way. I've had colleagues come into the lab and chastise me for eating Cheetos in the lab. Let's just say that I no longer allow my kids to eat any fake yellow cheese products. (I also called a guy to come inspect my fume hood).

 

[rgranger]

My guess is the smell is lactic acid (from the CO2 catalysis) plus some other byproduct that smells like oil.

Very interesting.
My wife has noticed that pollen, collected by our bees in their hive, smells like Cheetos. Pollen, photo synthesis, Cheetos, maybe there's a connection.

Hey! Thats one of the four major food groups.

 

[Terry Cox]

When I eat them, which is rare, usually a guest leftover, I eat them with a spoon. No mess, no fuss.

Hey! Thats one of the four major food groups.

Actually, there are five major food groups:

1. White flour
2. Sugar
3. Fat
4. Salt
5. And cholesterol

I can honesty not recall ever seeing Cheetos on Dalliance. My occasional guilty pleasure is Cool Ranch Doritos. Some residue, but at least it’s not fluorescent.

Beer. @Ralph Johnstone , you forgot beer.

Beer. @Ralph Johnstone , you forgot beer.

and bacon- can't leave that out

 

[Meriachee]

and bacon.
and coffee. You shouldn't post anything before coffee. You forget stuff.

 

[Ralph Johnstone]

Beer. @Ralph Johnstone , you forgot beer.

Wow, that makes six food groups

and bacon- can't leave that out

Maybe bacon is a sub-group of #3 fat ?

You shouldn't post anything before coffee.

The jury's still out on that one .

The fact that someone actually made those is HILLARIOUS
