Theorists, Cheetos are cow food. That's it, that's the Tweet - I mean video. Listen, I LOVE me some Cheetos. If you pop open a bag, I will not say no! That does not, however, change what these crispy snacks are. They were MADE for cows! Still don't believe me? Well, sit back and grab a snack. This will blow your mind!

    MatPat: "Are Cheetos cow food?"

    Me, eating Cheetos: "Perhaps."
  • @coalrocks
    If I have to end up paying $10 for a singular cheeto, Im blaming MatPat
  • Richard Montañez's story of inventing the Flamin' Hot line of Cheetos is actually disputed by multiple sources, some claiming he was never even a janitor.
  • @runelt99
    "He's now a vice president..."
    Expected him to still be a janitor and his idea claimed by someone else...
  • @TheHotBlade
    "Cheetos Are Cow Food!"

    Me who eats cheetos every day: Maybe I'm a cow.
  • @GlitchedMuse
    If I got a penny for every time I heard a story about a janitor coming up with an idea that ends up saving a multi-billion dollar company, I'd have two cents. Which, isn't a lot. But it's weird that it happened twice.
  • Imagine being that guy in the 1930’s and literally eating the freshest Cheeto ever made
  • @Northflowo
    "He's now a vice president..."
    And this is the moment that I thought this man was the vice president of the United States, and for that small moment I was only mildly surprised
  • You should definitely do another video talking about the recent controversy around PepsiCo letting him lie all these years about inventing the hot Cheetos.



    No I don't blame mat for this recent info change. When the video was posted pretty much everyone was touting this story. Even PepsiCo, at the very least they weren't denying it.

    MatPat: "Cheetos are cow food"

    Me: "Well yeah if you saw me with a bag of cheetos, you would compare me to a cow too."
  • @wiimaster005
    I used to work at a Sushi restaurant called the Sus-Hi Eatstation here in Florida, and we had a Deep Fried Hot Cheetos Sushi Burrito, and Sushi Rolls for a while, it was insanely popular

    Grade school dropout to janitor to CEO success story:
    "It's not what you know.. it's what you eat"
  • @grabble7605
    0:25 Cheetos actually has a Mexican Street Corn flavor out now that's almost dead-on for the real stuff (I guess 'Elotes' flavor wouldn't have sold well?). I use it to bread chicken.
  • One year later and I’m rewatching this while munching on Applebee’s cheetos cheese bites
