Hands off! Schools ban Flamin' Hot Cheetos

 
Most of us know what to expect when we dig in to a bag of Cheetos: bright orange cheese powder coating everything that gets even remotely close to the crunchy, addictive little buggers. But we’ve never really thought of them as dangerous…until now, that is.

 

Some schools across the U.S. are banning a Cheetos’ Flamin’ Hot variety from their campuses. Teachers are complaining that the snack-munching kids are leaving bright red finger prints across desks and books, but this hot commodity seems to having a far greater effect than just making a mess.

 

E.R. doctors reports that patients have come in complaining of stomach pain after eating Flamin’ Hot Cheetos—and that the bright food dye that turns these crunchies red can discolor your poo, which is seriously freaky. Schools argue that they are too high in salt (25 percent of your daily allowance) and fat (26 grams) to be part of the healthy, balanced diet they are trying to promote.

 

What do you think? Should schools be allowed to kick certain snacks outta the building?

I think schools should be able to tell their students what they can and can't eat. If kids aren't allowed to eat things in school, they're going to eat them at home anyways. Schools can't force kids to eat this and not that, but they can ban certain foods from schools. This is why so many people are obese, because they eat all this junk.

Don't let the snacks in classrooms is fine but banning them from campus is ridiculous. Government and schools need to stop interfering with what we eat!!!!!

Wow.. This is just sad! Seriously? C'mon! If the students want to eat that, it's their preference. I don't particularly care for hot chips at all, but when I do, I don't eat to the point my stomach is hurting. This is just ridiculous. SMH

schools should never be allowed to say what you can and cant eat. I mean, saying that there should be no food in class is one thing, because it keeps out pests, but banning one food is outright wrong

How to go to bed and wake up at the same time every day (even on the weekends) without waking the fam up (on the weekends)?

 

Hey *Queen of the Fashionistas*, you can set up an alarm in your room and close the door so no one will hear it when it goes off. You can set an alarm on your phone, ipod, or ipad and plug headphones in so when you wake only you will hear the alarm. Hope this helps! Xoxo
