Pepsi meets savory with the latest innovation in hybrid snack food: Pepsi-flavored Cheetos.
The junk food mashup by Frito-Lay is the newest combo to hit shelves in Japan. Dubbed Frito Lay Cheetos x Pepsi Shuwa Shuwa Cola Corn Snack, the bright orange Cheeto
"The first sensation, which I did not expect, was a very acidic bite," the Impulsive Buy writer Steve wrote in an early product review. "It tries to capture the citrus notes of Pepsi, but it's over the top. Too lemony."

For now, junk foodies will have to enjoy Cheetos and Pepsi the old-fashioned way, or purchase a bag on eBay for $3.99.
