Flamin' Hot Cheezos are a seemingly very popular human snack food, which appears several times in the Invader Zim comic series.
Summary[]
Flamin' Hot Cheezos are a cheese doodle-like food, coated in cheese dust that is, as the name implies, extremely hot. They are apparently a very popular product.
Cheezos first appear in Issue 12, when Zim uses his Voot Runner to fly a giant container of Cheezo dust into space, with the intent of dispersing it into the atmosphere, thus making Earth uninhabitable for human life. Dib chases after him in Tak's ship, intent to stop him. To try and counter this, Zim uses the Voot's Scary Fast Drive to fly around the sun, with Dib following suit. This slingshots them into a future where Zim has successfully conquered the planet; Zim is so distracted by this, he crashes the Voot, destroying the container and scattering the Cheezo dust.
In Issue 22, Zim revisits this plan, this time intending to blow up the Cheezos Factory in order to disperse the dust. However, due to GIR malfunctioning because of a virus and trying to kill Zim, the plan instead results in the factory melting down.
In Issue 25, Fitzoo-Menga mentions Zim's plots with the Cheezos, and calls them out as stupid.
Facts of Doom[]
- Cheezos are clearly based on the real life snack Cheetos.
- Even Emperor Zim admits that the plan to disperse the Cheezos dust is stupid, though the present day Zim still insists on its brilliance.
