Bacon Cheetos were my all-time favorite snack ever! From what I remember, they were only around in 1983 (maybe '82 as well) then they disappeared. I've been wishing Frito Lay would bring them back ever since!
Rico - November 28, 2008 - Report this comment
Yes! They were great. I was so excited when I first saw the Cheetos Bacon Cheddar crackers, but they are terrible -- the old puffs had a much better bacon flavor. FritoLay won't admit they existed, which makes me think there was something horrible in the cooking process. But I remain hopeful they'll bring it back someday...

I used to buy 4 to 5 bags at a time, that's how good they were... I really missed that awesome flavor. Do you think if all of us Bacon/Cheese Cheeto lovers expressed this concern to Fritolay they would bring them back????

My friends dad caught me full tilt on this bag of delicious smoky bacon cheddar cheetos while we had the munchies in his garage. It was the funniest thing in the world- we laughed hard. But that was in the mid to late 80's - Maybe 1987-88. So I know these chips existed here in California during that time. They were crunchy; they weren't puffs. Please bring them back you ratt bastards at Frito Lay!!!!

Finally, I found someone else who remembers Bacon and Cheddar Cheetos! I was starting to think they had just done some test marketing in our area (northern Illinois) in the early '80s. I'm glad other people across the country got to experience the bliss, too.

OMG, For so long I've asked people if they remember this flavor and nobody did. Being that I was so young I thought maybe I thought they were bacon flavered, but now I know. I was only 3 or 4 when they were out. I mean the store was at the corner and we would walk there daily and that's all I wanted, and here I am as a grown woman wanting them so bad. PLEASE BRING THEM BACK!PLEASE!

I'm glad I'm not the only one to remember these bacon cheese snacks. They were the only time that I purchased a Cheetos product on a regular basis. Why do companies in this country insist on offering us only chocolate, vanilla and strawberry when we really want diversity?

Only one person I know remembers the bacon flavored Cheetos. The only way you can eat something close to it is the bacon cheddar crackers by Frito-Lay, but it's not the same. I recall they were out in the early 80's cause I was 4 at the time. I know I was super young when they came out, but a flavor like that you'll never forget! I agree with everyone, they need to bring them back!

Bacon and cheddar Cheetos were simply the quintessential 80's junk food creation. I can remmember one evening my mom tempted me to behave on a Saturday when pops was at work as a way to bribe me. I was playing with my orange Stomper battery powered monster truck on my parents red carpeted floor on a Saturday right before the muppets and chilling with my big brother. Then mama came with the blue striped bowl of F@&*ck'n Bacon Cheddar Fritos! I was jam'n my stopper on the floor, although the damn thing was battery powered, and making slobbery engine noises. Sweet, this was a good tasting jumk food of the 80's--I recall the taste just as I recalled this childhood memory--good marketing Cheetos! Slipp'n some partially-hydrodgenated oils that were mass produced and modified for corn fry'n.

WOW!! This is crazy...me and my friend would be late to school in the morning going to get these chips. I tell you this brings back soooo many memories. Bacon and Chedder Cheetos were the best chips in the world. I grew up in San Diego and she just text me and told me that they have them at the corner stor as a trial. Wow!! I told her to mail me a bag. That is the reason why I googled it to see if they have them in Atlanta....I can't wait to get a bag!!

They must have used drugs in the product because I couldn't stop eating them. (and subsequently went through withdrawal after I could no longer find them)

I was a skinny lil' thing back then, but I could scarf an entire bag of the crunchy ones alone in my dorm room. It was about all I spent my pitiful quantity of spending money on. This was in CT in the early 80s.

Robert - May 17, 2010 - Report this comment
Interesting, the sustained popularity of the bacon flavored Cheeto after all these years. It took me nearly 2 years of convincing the brand to consider adding a bacon flavor line after experimenting with the flavor in my kitchen. I used a raw mix at home and deep fried them in bacon grease and then sprinkled them with the signature cheese mix. It wasn't bad but good enough to get the Frito Lay's R&D team to modify the recipe and spices to put on the shelves! The idea earned me a check for staggering $1.5MM after the first year the product was on the market. Pretty good for a guy that just watched Cheetos pour into bags on the production line. Thank God for my Southern roots and hillbilly home style cooking right? Anyway, I went to Campbell's as a consultant and learned that the bacon flavored cheetos were pulled from the shelves. There was no answer to why they made the decision and it still remains a mystery today. There was however a rumor that the flavor was served at a picnic and Frito's CEO was there with his wife. She was Jewish and adhered to a no pork rule but had already eaten at least two large bags of the bacon flavored Cheetos. Angry about not being informed of the pork flavored relationship with the food she silently demanded they be removed from the shelves. That's the story I got. But what do I care, I'm still as happy as a "pig in %$@#! I'd love to the return of the item myself!

These were favs of my Mom (now 83) but we could never find them in local groc stores & it became my habit to buy them whenever I was traveling as they appeared readily available at gas station markets. Then I hit the bonanaza in '06 @ Ingles in Robbinsville, NC where they sold it by the box. Whenever we went to our place there - I'd stock up. Then 2 years ago - nothing. So all you who've missed it for years, it was on the market until just about 2 years ago. I've been deligently searching & finally today, thought to google it. I am NOT looking forward to telling my Mom they are no longer made:( but she may actually still have a pack, if we need to PROVE to Frito Lay they DID make them! LOL

The year was 1982 a small town just outside of Houston Texas . My mother was into you the double and triple coupons phase of her life. And I'll never forget the first bag of baking flavored crunchy cheetos I rehab . It was a glorious moments ! By young pallet had never experienced such a delicious treat . The glorious taste in baking with that crunchy cheese flavor blew my mind ! Somehow she ended up getting for about $3 . I believe it was the best 3 point my mother ever spent . She originally back them for the children at her small daycare center and when I realized she was about to pass them out to the other kids I hated every bag slightly evil perhaps mostly genius definitely ! Please Frito Lay for the love of God in baking flavored she does lovers across great girl and bring them back sincerely. Chef Marshall J. Marroquin

I chated with a representative of Lays/Fitos/Cheetos on their website and she said that she did not even find them on her discontinued list. I told her they were discontinued way back in 1983. I even forward her this link, but her reply was that her system would not let her open this link. Why have they not put these back on the market when everyone else is putting Bacon products on their shelves. I mean they had the best flavored chip of its time, and I am sure it would be a mega hit in todays society.

Bacon flavor Cheetos was my favorite in the early 80s maybe you should be like fritolay and give the people a chance to pick 2 ingredients and I'm sure people would choose bacon and cheese. Bring it back please mister. Maybe give out a million dollars to the one who picks 2 ingredients for a new product for Cheetos just saying..maybe I would win, so that I could have my kidney transplant.

PepsiCo cut a deal with the Saudis to gain entry to the Saudi market. They agreed that Pepsi would not be sold in Israel. Killing Bacon & Cheddar Cheetos might have been part of the same deal.
