If a single normal bag can turn a person's finger orange, can you imagine what these did to the guy?

[-] lugal@lemmy.world 13 points 7 months ago

So that's his origin story, I see.

Oh shit! I had already pressed the back button when I saw your comment and I had to come back and reply. That is gold. Sick burn!

[-] CosmicTurtle@lemmy.world 13 points 7 months ago

Life pro tip: use chopsticks

[-] ThePantser@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

Well if they swam in them like Scrooge McDuck.

[-] CluckN@lemmy.world 9 points 7 months ago

Those bags don’t look well sealed either so he’s going to be eating and peeing rocks.

[-] ech@lemm.ee 29 points 7 months ago

The caption seems pretty clearly not true, but assuming it were, there's no way the rest of those aren't going stale before he's done with a quarter of the first one he opens.

[-] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 11 points 7 months ago

I bet it's the start and or end of the run or something. Cheeto seconds. Maybe he slipped a guy $60 and the guy didn't have to carry them to the dumpster.

[-] Protoknuckles@lemmy.world 18 points 7 months ago

Wouldn't they turn super stale?

[-] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 31 points 7 months ago

There's no outcome where that mattered to this insane man

[-] fluxion@lemmy.world 12 points 7 months ago

Not if you eat them fast enough

[-] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 7 months ago

You should know: if you have anything like cereal, cheetos, doritos, potato chips, or crackers and they've gone stale, but the taste itself is still OK; if you put them in the oven spread out on a pan at 350 for a few minutes, you can make them crispy again. Often times even better than when the bag was brand new.

Keep a very close eye on them while doing this. It may take 4 minutes to make them awesome again, but just a minute later they could taste burnt. After a couple minutes just grab one and try it every 30 or so seconds.

Food dehydrator is the same

[-] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

I think it depends on if they are gaining or losing moisture while going stale. If they are softer, do this. If they are hard, stick an apple slice or two in the bag with them. This works for weed, too, if you don't like how dry it is.

But mostly seal your bags as well as you can when you set them aside. Bag clips help. It also helps to remove as much air as you can before you close it.

65 per bag? Why did no one tell me?

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 15 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

I wouldn't have thought that the bags cost so much. They're not that big. How much did the Cheetos inside them cost?

[-] 9point6@lemmy.world 20 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Assuming the guy is 6 ft, those bags look roughly to be 2m X 1m X 1m, using that and a bit of chatGPT to do the maths because I'm lazy, we're looking at roughly 2,500 large bags of Cheetos per clear bag

Which I'm guessing is only if the cheetos are packed perfectly at maximum density

But even if we half it and for every cheeto, there's an equivalent amount of volume as space, then we're still looking at a lot of bags, this is a bargain at approximately 5¢ per equivalent large bag

The maths it did in python apparently:

import math

# Dimensions of a Cheeto
length = 0.05  # in meters
diameter = 0.01  # in meters
radius = diameter / 2  # Radius is half the diameter

# Volume of a cylinder V = πr^2h
volume = math.pi * (radius ** 2) * length
# volume = 3.93x10^-6

# Volume of the bag
volume_of_bag = 2  # in cubic meters (2m x 1m x 1m)

# Number of Cheetos that fit in the bag
number_of_cheetos = volume_of_bag / volume
# number_of_cheetos = 509,296

# Number of Cheetos per large bag
cheetos_per_bag = 200

# Number of bags needed
number_of_bags = number_of_cheetos / cheetos_per_bag
# number_of_bags = 2,546

The Cheetos in the bags cost that much, not the bags themselves.

How did you infer the plastic bags themselves cost the entire price?

[-] thedarkfly@feddit.nl 2 points 7 months ago

I think they meant: how much did the Cheetos cost to produce?

[-] schmidtster@lemmy.world 0 points 7 months ago

Their woosh in response to a legit answer says they are a troll.

[-] crawancon@lemm.ee 13 points 7 months ago

good to know that if I ever felt inclined, I could fill a room with cheetos for roughly 2000 at this price point.

good. to. know.

[-] Xariphon@kbin.social 12 points 7 months ago

Dude spent like two grand on fuckin' Cheetos.

[-] ilikecoffee@lemmy.world 11 points 7 months ago

$1820... Definitely still cheaper than buying the same mass of cheetos from a store I guess...

[-] LufyCZ@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

It's a lot if Cheetos though

[-] FoundTheVegan@kbin.social 11 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

He spent $1,820 to be known as "The Cheeto Guy", the food itself will be eaten but the real enjoyment will be his satisfaction from buying odd little fame. Dude sat down and decided to buy himself a "hail corporate" personality.

[-] DigitalFrank@lemmy.world 11 points 7 months ago

Poofy cheetos or crunchy cheetos. Which are better?

[-] triclops6@lemmy.ca 13 points 7 months ago

So I not only vote poofy, I leave a big bowl out so it goes stale and eat them chewy. My wife has thought of leaving me over it

[-] rowrowrowyourboat@sh.itjust.works 16 points 7 months ago

Your wife is correct.

[-] Duranie@midwest.social 10 points 7 months ago

Who hurt you?

Not gonna lie - if I had one of those big bags I'd eat myself sick on them.

[-] Raiderkev@lemmy.world 11 points 7 months ago

Crunchy, and it's not even close. Not trying to eat cheese flavored packing peanuts.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

Poofy, and it's not even close. Even Cartman knows:

"NO KITTY! These are my cheesy poofs!"
