Funyuns Flamin' Hot Onion Flavored Rings, 6 oz

Product Information

This signifies that if a person uses caution when eating a substance, then he or she can eat the item. There’s one advantage, and one only, as far as I can see: The lack of flavor in the Cheeto itself allows the Flamin’ Hot spice to pop more, giving the illusion of greater heat. Apart from food products, there has been a shortage of several other products including semiconductors, motor oil, and packaging materials.

The Funyuns aren't done quite yet, though, as they are also fried since you can't have an oil-free snack chip. Modified Corn Starch, Tapioca Starch, Vegetable Oil (Contains one or more of the Following: Corn, Cottonseed, Soybean, or Sunflower Oil), Onion Powder, Potato Flour, Salt, Sugar, Torula Yeast, Hydrolyzed Torula Yeast Proteins, Hydrolyzed Brewers Yeast Proteins, Monosodium Glutamate (Flavor Enhancer), Garlic Powder, Paprika, Spice Extractive Flavorings, Yellow No. Despite the diversity of Flamin’ Hot products available today, including bags of popcorn and rings of Funyun, not all Flamin’ Hot snacks are created equal.

Because there are so many Flamin’ Hot snacks to choose from, we decided to taste every chip available to us—alongside about 25 of Thrillist’s staffers—and discover which are the most mellow, which have the best crunch, which are most likely to make you salivate, which is the most balanced in flavor, and which holds the title of spiciest.

The spiral is a more pleasurable munching experience texturally, and the flavor of corn in these is more prominent. Overall, I think the balance of heat and lime works better here, the lime flavoring isn’t quite as sour, though that may be because it’s being balanced by powdered cheddar. If you must purchase these, I recommend sucking the flavor off, then discarding the actual Cheetos — a proven way to spare yourself the extra calories. Now, you can’t throw a rock without hitting a hot-chicken place, or a YouTuber posting a video of themselves eating Carolina Reapers and other esophagus-destroying peppers. The crunch of Ruffles is familiar and present, but if you’re looking for Flamin’ Hot you won’t find it here.There’s an understated genius at work here, as with this parody of the “Garden State” headphones scene, except Natalie Portman makes Zach Braff listen to an entire three-hour episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience. The whole time eating these, I think, “It tastes like someone took some flavorless baked corn puffs and rolled them in some vaguely sweet paprika that expired in 2012. The Qur’an says in chapter 5 verse 102: “But its touch is never forbidden to any of them so long as they use caution. Many Muslims believe that many ingredients are harmful to the health of the Funyuns so they should be avoided when eating it.

As a child, I loved the occasional gross, onion-ring-shaped Funyun, a portmanteau of “fun” and “onion,” two words that are rarely seen together in the same sentence. Like the final “Game of Thrones” season, Flamin’ Hot Fritos are coasting on reputation, and seem a little meandering and pointless. They taste like crumpled up paper that was put in the oven and mixed with a tall glass of crunchy air. It became a meme, became part of the pejorative “Hot Cheeto girl” stereotype and now, every fuckin’ thing is Flaming Hot.I was hoping with all the ridges Ruffles have, as they like to remind us, that this variation would pack a lot more heat. The thing about Funyuns, though, is if you do get ahold of a bag of them, you might be surprised to realize they're actually not half-bad. The heat and cheese in these just don’t really sing: Someone at the factory needs to crank up the MSG or something. The spice hits hard, and if you’re not careful while eating these, you might inhale some of the powdered spice, which produces a low-key “I just got pepper-sprayed” feeling.
