Has anyone tried to super sized Cheetos that I have seen advertised? Seems like a bad idea. I can't in my life ever remember thinking to myself I wish this cheeto was bigger so my whole hand can be covered in this orange crud that is impossible to remove without a pumice stone.
I have seen strawberry/peanut butter M&M's advertised, anyone seen/tried these. Sounds kinda weird but I'll give them a go if I ever find them. I have been looking but to no avail.

I went to the doctor's the other day and said to him doc, I have this problem, my dick is orange.
The doc says well, that's unusual. Is it swollen at all, or tender, or sore? I said no, it's fine, it's just really orange.
the doc says maybe it's something else, do you work with any dangerous chemicals? I said no doc, I'm unemployed.
The doc says well I'm at a loss here, I need some insight. If you don't work, then what do you do all day?
I replied well mostly I just sit at home watching porn and eating cheetos.

there was a ted talk about how companies like pepsi and ragu were trying to develop the perfect soda/pasta sauce. Some dude came in and said, "dont make the perfect pepsi, make the perfect pepsis" and so now you see 8 types of sauce and 4 pepsi flavors.
So they're just trying anything becuase an attempt at something new is better than tweaking the old.
Malcom Caldwell I believe was the dude that gave this talk. His book Blink was really good too, an indepth look at snap decisions.

Poor synergy, imo.
What's wrong with Peanut Butter M&Ms tho? Peanut butter and chocolate is a standard combo. I've tried the cherry M&Ms. They're good. Again, chocolate and red fruit is pretty standard.

Yes but these are strawberry and peanut butter, no chocolate involved from what I get from the ad. Chocolate and strawberry, yes that would be great. But this is candy shell,peanut butter and strawberry.

I've had the super-sized Cheetos, Puff-edition, nowhere near as good as normal sized puffs.

a description off the web: So there IS chocolate....
Typical of the special flavor M&M's that Mars makes available periodically, the candies are larger than usual and irregularly shaped. They come in dark brown red, and a pleasant, crimson-speckled dark yellow, but otherwise look like your typical peanut butter M&M's.
The floral strawberry flavor is contained entirely in the chocolate or shell -- there is no added layer of jelly or anything else that disrupts the established texture. The scent and aftertaste is sharper than the Strawberry Quick flavor we usually get from strawberry-infused candies, closer to Fruit Roll-Up.
What's strange about these candies is the flavor mishmash. Yes, strawberry, peanut butter and chocolate all combine well with each other on a one-on-one basis, but the addition of the third component comes as a bit of a surprise to the taste buds. There's no basis of comparison outside the candy. A peanut butter, jelly and chocolate sandwich? A chocolate- covered strawberry dipped in peanut butter? A Reese's cup served with sliced strawberries?
This isn't to say that the marriage is a total disaster; while the flavor is strange, it's not necessarily disagreeable. It comes down to whether you feel like your peanut butter M&M's benefit from a fruity kick, and for us it just seems like messing with an already good thing.

Tastes just like the regular cheetos IMO

You could just have small hands/mouth so everything else seems bigger.
And since there is a topic of M&M's, I will share this, once again..

I bought a small pack of flavored Twizzlers yesterday because I was intrigued.
Had; strawberry, lemonade, lime, orange, blueberry, grape.
They were basically all terrible (I <3 regular twizzlers).
I still support trying random modifications.
