Baked Cheetos vs. Classic Cheetos

This baked variety of a classic favorite chip is probably, in my opinion, the most like the original chip itself. You still get the same flavor and crunchy texture, so when you eat these, you don’t even feel like you’re really missing out in all honesty.

The only difference is there might be the tiniest amount less of cheese on the baked variety; however, some are still packed with a ton of cheese, and you’re still sure to get some classic, delicious Cheeto dust on your fingers! For me, the clear-cut winner here is the baked variety of Cheetos.

Let’s take a look at some nutritional facts about the Baked Cheetos:

  • Each serving contains 120 calories
  • Each serving contains 4.5g of fat

In comparison, here are some nutritional facts about the original variety of Cheetos:

  • Each serving contains 160 calories
  • Each serving contains 10g of fat (double what the baked variety contains)

Overall, the baked variety of Cheetos is my go-to snack and option when looking at Cheetos in general. I can’t even remember the last time I had some regular, classic Cheetos in all honesty. If you haven’t tried these and have a chance do, definitely do. You’ll soon realize that there’s barely a difference between the two, so why not go with the healthier one without it tasting healthier!?

Winner Here: Baked Cheetos
