These chips are much different than the American ones. They have more of a lemony taste to it, I think that they have the flavoring of Takis without it being overwhelming. Definitely not as spicy as the American extra spicy hot Cheetos but I think they taste better than regular Cheetos.

These have a lot of chili powder on them, if you don't like that so much try another brand. The bag is also really full, which is nice because most bags of chips are all air.
