Up until seeing this story a few days ago I didn't know Cheeto dust had a name.

I wonder how long it will take for it to be repainted in a 'creative' way.

I'm embarrassed as an Albertan. It should be a Hawkins Cheezie.....

Why Hawkins Cheezies Are Canada's Most Delicious Under-The-Radar Snack

Each satisfying snap of a Cheezie is rife with nostalgia. For me, the taste of Hawkins is synonymous with childhood summers.

. . . While Cheetos taste overwhelmingly artificial, akin to eating a deep-fried packing peanut, something about Hawkins Cheezies tastes, dare I say, homespun. . . .

But it tastes like cardboard | The Times

Between 2003 and 2006, Frito- Lay labelled several shipments of Cheetos coming into Canada as “cardboard boxes,” when they should have been more accurately labelled “crisp savoury snacks.” . . . been better off to say “well, these things taste like cardboard, so let’s just keep calling them cardboard”? . . .

I wonder how long it will take for it to be repainted in a 'creative' way.

They'll only have until Nov 4 to do so before it is moved to the next location.

Mr Hawkins died a number of years ago. His memory shall live on in the best Cheezie ever - indeed the ONLY Cheezie.

The rest are imposters.
