SNACK lovers will be glad to see the return of a fan-favorite Cheeto flavor, which has made a comeback after 20 years off shelves.
Those of us who just can’t resist a cheesy slice of pizza will be overjoyed to hear that Cheetos has brought back their popular pizza puffs.

Cheese Pizza Cheetos Puffs are now available for purchase in stores and online.
And the returning chip flavor has dropped just in time for the Super Bowl on Febuary 9 – ready and waiting for you to grab a slice of the action.
Fittingly, Febuary 9th is also National Pizza Day – so you can’t possibly need any more excuses to grab a bag.
The tasty snack has a familiar flavor in each puff – with hints of cheese, tomato, oregano and Italian seasoning.
The pizza puffs were last sold in 2005, and fans have begged for their return ever since.
Food blog SnackGator, which is dedicated to updating it’s 2.9k followers with the latest updates on food and drinks, wrote a post asking who was excited to try the returning snacks.
One person replied: “Been waiting on these forever since they’ve shown up in different countries, I’m excited to try these and hope they will be good.”
And a Cheetos rep told Parade: “While nothing can compare to a fresh hot slice, Cheetos is proud to bring fans the second-best pizza thing.
“Because there’s no shame in being #2 when you’re up against the most loved food by Gen-Z.”
After dropping hints on their Instagram earlier in the week, Cheetos officially announced the launch of the returning chip flavor in a separate post.
They posted a picture of a bag of the pizza-inspired chips inside a classic brown cardboard takeout box.
They captioned the post: “New Cheetos Puffs Cheese Pizza flavor really hits the spot.”
