strawberrycheetos.jpgThere are so many ways in which the Japanese culture has eclipsed our own. This includes snack foods, a rather shocking revelation given America's penchant for morbid obesity.

Take Strawberry Cheetos. The puffed cheese-coated cornmeal is American in its roots (Texan, in fact), but there's something uniquely Japanese in the compulsion to add a sugary strawberry and chocolate coating to the seemingly already perfect nature of the Frito-Lay snack food.

Sure, I had a similar idea when I cooked up a Cheetos/Redbull stew for my Washable Belkin mouse story, but I certainly didn't posses the wherewithal to bring the concept to market (though I was dared into tasting the concoction--not bad).

So until Frito-Lay strikes a deal with the popular energy drink, these Japanese-only snacks are the closest you're going to come to the perfect pick-me-up for the 11th straight hour of WoW.

Strawberry coated cheetos, I think my stomach is gonna turn. I'm glad nobody has asked me to add this questionable 'greatest gamer food' to the gamerchow.com website. :p But thanks for sharing!
