Cheetos MSG loaded, so sad.

One of my favorite childhood snack foods was Cheetoes. The day glow orange goodness that I would savor on each MSG coated finger.  So sad that they are coated with huge amounts of MSG. The amounts of MSG on them stimulate the brain so much they are almost addicting. I will miss them but there is one to go on the never again list. All 4 of their major brands Below is a picture I found with the ingredient list. It is not easy to see but all of them have MSG on the label.

Cheetos Flamin’ Hot Ingredients with free Glutamate (MSG):

  • Monosodium Glutamate, Autolyzed yeast extract, Hydrolyzed soy protein, Sodium caseinate

Natural Cheetos White Cheddar Puffs Ingredients with free Glutamate (MSG):

  • Torula yeast*, Maltodextrin

Baked Cheetos Ingredients with free Glutamate (MSG):

  • Monosodium Glutamate, Maltodextrin, Whey Protein Concentrate

Cheetos Crunchy Cheese Flavor Ingredients with free Glutamate (MSG):

  • Monosodium Glutamate, Maltodextrin, Whey
*Torula Yeast contains free glutamate (MSG), it’s in the same family as Autolyzed Yeast Extract. It just sounds more “natural” and makes the label look clean. For those trying to avoid MSG they will think this product is okay, but it’s deceptive. Why would they hide it on the label if there wasn’t anything wrong with it? To Fool you! Don’t be fooled.
