Frito-Lay dismisses rumors of snacks sold in Japan coming to the US

Frito-Lay has denied planning to offer Pepsi-flavored Cheetos in the States. As I wrote, the potentially interesting snack is currently only available in Japan.

Perhaps it's the fan base for cookie products, but the Japanese market is considered more adequate for the product.

The variety of Cheetos not only taste like coke, they also give the taster a fizz that is reminiscent of the cola drink.

PepsiCo spokesman Jeff Dahncke tells Los Angeles Times that the snacks are not making their way to the States and offers no other explanation.

Some Twitter users believe that you have to be in elementary school to enjoy them, but that does not seem accurate to me. I think that it could grow into a crowd favorite.
