Hello there, Snack Chat readers! I’m Tom Millas (that's me on the left), the summer intern on the Frito-Lay communications team. I’ve come to Frito-Lay’s Texas headquarters all the way from New York, where I’m a student at Syracuse University (Go Orange!). I’m thrilled to be working with the team here on some of America’s favorite snacks, including Lay’s, SunChips, Cheetos and every college student’s favorite, Tostitos.
I think a great feature of Frito-Lay’s snack portfolio is that we have something for everyone. While some love our bolder flavors (my roommate, Mark, is a big fan of Doritos Taco), I tend to stick with the classic taste of barbecue. Before I started interning at Frito-Lay, one of my friends told me that Fritos Flavor Twists Honey BBQ was simply “the most delicious thing ever,” and in order to convince me, she bought me a bag just so I could try it. Needless to say, it was love at first bite.
Ever since then, I’ve been hooked on the irresistible combination of sweet honey and smoky barbecue, and that’s why I’m so excited to introduce new Cheetos Puffs Honey BBQ! Every bite is a delicious mouthful of cheesy, sweet, and smoky goodness. It’s a new take on our traditional, fun Cheetos flavor and is the perfect complement for summer get-togethers and picnics. Even better, I love that I can satisfy my craving for Cheetos Puffs and enjoy the all-American taste of honey barbecue at the same time!
Cheetos Puffs Honey BBQ are now available nationwide -- just in time for summer. I’d love to see your comments or tweets (@FritoLay) about what you think of this new snack!

I love honey BBQ cheetos! Why don't frito lays distribute these in Hawaii??? How can I order them? The only way I get them is when my family and friends travels to the mainland and purchase it there to bring back home. Ive been raving about this this chips to everyone but there is no way Hawaii residents can purchase them. Also, why don't we have the lays lemon potato chips. That I love too!

I really love BBQ Cheetos! They are sooo good and
hard to find too. When I do see them I get 2 or 3
bags at a time.

Honey BBQ Cheetos are great! I can't find them anymore. Please send them around again.

I LOVE these Honey BBQ Cheeto Puffs, I get them in the vending machine at work and I am on a mission to find a nearby store that sells them.

I LOVE these cheetos but they are simply too hard to find. They had them at a Jewel and a Walgreens I normally go to, but haven't had them in a few months!!!

Why is it so hard to find Honey BBQ cheetos now? They were easily found at Safeway and now they seem to be found only in select gas stations or small unknown grocery stores. Whats going on?

I know you cannot get honey bbq puffs anywhere they replaced them with the regular puffs and are not as good they need to bring them back they are 10 times better than the original
