Flamin’ Hot Cheetos Covered Grilled Corn Is Here To Stay, So Here’s How To Make It

Ah, planet Earth, will you never cease to amaze? One of the latest inventions to blown our minds is corn on the cob that is covered in Cheetos — preferably flamin' hot Cheetos for that matter.

However, there is a little more to this strangely addictive snack than just covering grilled corn in Cheetos!

However, if you are looking to spice up your corn on the cob a little bit — you know you are deep down — then this could be the dish for you.

For this unbelievably curiosity-inspiring dish, you will need corn (obviously), mayonnaise, Cheetos (preferably flamin' hot flavor), sour cream, garlic powder (optional), and maybe a lime...go on, live a little, grab a lime why don't ya?

While you are grilling your corn as normal, put your Cheetos into a bag and smash them to smithereens.

Once they have been crushed into oblivion, still leaving a bit of crunch though, you're going to want to mix together 1/4 c. mayonnaise, 1/3 c. sour cream, 1 tbsp. lime juice, and a smattering of garlic powder.

Brush that mixture across the surface of your corn on the cob before rolling your corn around in the eviscerated Cheetos.

Your mayo-mixture will work as a binding agent, breading the corn on the cob with the mangled remains of your helpless Cheeto victims. I love the smell of mangles flamin' hot Cheetos in the morning, it smells like victory.

Once you have appropriately seasoned your frankensteinian cheeto-corn creation, it's ready to eat!

All joking aside, this weird creation is becoming something of a smash hit and it's easy to see why. The taste is surprisingly good, provided that you like flamin' hot Cheetos — that is kind of an integral ingredient.

People have been taking to social media to share their thoughts on the dish.

Will you be trying this dish at home?

With more and more people being converted to the way of the flamin' hot Cheeto corn, it is only a matter of time before the seeming taboo around this foodstuff is completely gone!
