Caramel Coated Cheetos > Popcorn, Obviously

Your average popcorn tin usually comprises three flavors: plain, caramel and cheese. And while the plain batch is pretty much there just to keep production costs down, the other two are a revelation, hampered only by their inability to bless snackers with both their miraculous tastes at the same time.

(Short of blasphemously dipping our cheese-dusted fingers into mounds of caramel, that is.)

Well, entertain such sinful thoughts no longer. Here to satisfy all our cheesy, caramelly cravings is instructables user Pueo, with a recipe for Caramel Coated Cheetos. Not really a snack and not really a dessert, the only thing missing from this flash of inspiration is an option to use Flamin’ Hots instead of Puffs. Because spicy + sweet? Always a win.
