The weather outside may be frightful, but this fiery snack is so delightful.

We all have weaknesses. For some, it could be a perfectly moist chocolate cake. For Superman, we know it’s kryptonite. And for me, it’s indecently delicious Flamin’ Hot Cheetos. 

A package of lurid red, perfectly crunchy hot Cheetos finds its way into my shopping cart more often than I’d like to admit. Even though I’ve eaten myself into a stomach ache or two courtesy of the cheesy, spicy snack, I just can’t stay away from them. I can’t even hide the evidence of my love for them, given that they stain my fingertips enough to withstand several rounds of hand washing. 

Now, though. I have more than just the standard hot Cheetos to worry about because there’s a Flamin’ Hot mutation that’s hitting shelves and set to similarly destroy my willpower to resist them. 

Cheetos’ New Flamin’ Hot Cinnamon Sugar-Flavored Popcorn

The new product in the Flamin’ Hot lineup combines everything you know and love about the Flamin’ Hot flavor and combines with sweet cinnamon sugar for a sweet and spicy twist.

The snack was released nationwide on Dec. 1, and it’s perfect for snacking all holiday season long. And given that it’s a limited-time snack, you’ll want to get ahold of it sooner than later if you’re a hot snack aficionado.

If you find the Flamin’ Hot products a little too spicy, a few other new products that may be worth your time are coming out this winter.

More New Winter Snacks From Frito-Lay

If you’re intrigued by the popcorn above but like things sweet instead of spicy, you’ll be happy to know that Smartfood has a new Smartfood Marshmallow Hot Cocoa Flavored Popcorn. Tasting like marshmallows with hints of chocolate and vanilla, it’s hot cocoa in popcorn form.

Also available this season are Quaker Chewy Holiday Minis, made with whole grains, chocolate chips, and sprinkles all wrapped up in holiday packaging that’s cheery enough to make any kid opening a lunchbox happy to see it. Cap’n Crunch’s Christmas Crunch is out now, bringing a holiday twist to Cap’n Crunch Berries with holiday shapes such as Santa hats, Christmas trees, and stars.
