Cheetos Cracker Trax

The new Cracker Trax crackers from Cheetos advertises itself as "dangerously cheesy." I'm here to tell you that isn't true.

The new crackers come in two flavors: Cheesy Cheddar and Spicy Cheddar. My supermarket didn't have any of the spicy variety, but I did buy the cheesy, and they leave a lot to be desired. Oh, they aren't bad, but they just aren't cheesy enough. They smell really cheesy (it will hit you once you open the bag) and they look and feel cheesy, but once you put them in your mouth, the cheese taste seems to evaporate instantly, and you're left with the taste of a plain cracker.

I don't know, I really love cheese and maybe I'm just a person that looks for a lot of cheese taste in their foods (especially when they are labeled as "dangerous"), but these just didn't do it for me. I'll stick with other Cheetos snacks.

I share your pain and echo your sense of disappointment with this product. I was expecting the Cheetos flavor punch on the crackers, but all I got was cracker flavor and orange fingertips.
I'd pass on these ones...

Does it still make your fingers orange like their parent snack?

I agree as well. Tried the spicy and all I got was atomic orange fingers--which I wouldn't mind as long as there was flavor to go along with it. Too much cracker taste. Barely any cheesy...or spicy. My dog didn't even like them which is freakishly unusual. I ended up throwing away half the bag.

We found these VERY disappointing, and had the spicy variety- they are a cracker abomination. Normally we love Cheetos and Baked Cheetos, these were totally WHACK.
