The Cheetos Crunchy Buffalo flavor is a new addition to the brand's product portfolio that's arriving at just the right time to coincide with the NFL playoff season.
The product is inspired by the signature flavor of buffalo wings and transform the brand's cheesy, crunchy snack into a satisfying option for serving on game day. The snack is launching alongside a promotion that will offer fans the chance to win complimentary bags all the way up to $22,222.22 in cash. The sweepstakes has been created with the help of quarterback CJ Stroud who is the host for the ultimate prize: a Super Bowl party.
Senior Vice President of Marketing at Frito-Lay Tina Mahal spoke on the Cheetos Crunchy Buffalo flavor saying, "As a culture disruptor, Cheetos has a history of embracing bold flavors and hacking into new snack categories, such as the newest launch of Cheetos Pretzels or fan-favorite Mac 'N Cheese. While we know there's no beating out Buffalo wings as a favorite gameday staple, Cheetos Crunchy Buffalo proves that being second-best can taste just as good."
