Do you enjoy Flamin’ Hot Cheetos, so much so, that your red-stained fingers aren’t enough to profess your love? Get the hottest new hairstyle with Flamin’ Hot Cheetos Hair.
Brought to us by LA-based hairstylist Helena Palacios, the ombrĂ© hairstyle was inspired by Helena’s actual love of the spicy treat. No worries, running your fingers through your new hair won’t turn them red. At least, not that we know of.

No need for them to be “Hot and Ready,” Krispy Kreme Doughnuts will soon be available in convenient jelly bean-form.
Spotted at the Sweets & Snacks Expo 2017, Jelly Belly Krispy Kremes will offer Cinnamon Apple Filled, Strawberry Iced, Original Glazed, Glazed Blueberry Cake, and Chocolate Iced With Sprinkles.
No mention yet of how, when or why these will be released to the public… but keep an eye out, bean-eaters.

Cookies demand to be dipped in something. And, at the time of this writing, there is no more dippable food item than the french fry.
Cookie Fries are the food hybrid that we didn’t know we needed. Offered by State Fair Treats, a Texas-based restaurant filled with state-fair inspired foods, the portable dessert is available in chocolate chip or with sprinkles, and can be dipped in chocolate or strawberry sauce.
Boring round cookies can’t do that. Actually, they can, but fries.

If you love carnivals, and like some fluffy with your salty and sweet, you might consider a plate of Cotton Candy Fries.
Brought to us by alternative fries-specialist, Sticky’s Finger Joint in NYC, the french fries are indeed topped with sugary colorful cotton candy.
Just to make sure that the snack hits every zone on your palate, it’s also topped with caramel sauce and strawberry Pop Rocks. Salty, sweet, fluffy and fizzy… all the flavor profiles are covered.
Although most junk food doesn’t need anything more than garish packaging and a shiny sugar-coating to appeal to our eyes — there are ways to make it seem more sophisticated.
Chef Jacques Lamerde, using master plating skills, takes some of our favorite sugary and salty items, and makes them appear gourmet.
He even applies fancy menu-naming techniques to the plates of Hot Pockets, Pop-Tarts and Munchkins, to help complete the culinary ruse. See more below and over at his Instagram.
