[Sobeys] 4 for $1 Cheetos Mac 'n Cheese Flamin' Hot Flavor Only (YMMV)

Was at the Cranston Sobeys in Calgary today and noticed this deal at the checkout. No idea if all Sobeys have the same deal going on or if there's more stock in the stores somewhere. Every cashier had a flat or 2 sitting near the tills. I'm guessing this is a huge YMMV.

I thought I was the only one. Didn't resemble anything that tasted like food. Stunk up my condo. All that red stuff was a pain in the ass to toss out. But I got downvoted into oblivion for saying this on Reddit so, there are some freaks out there

This item was a huge push last year...it was literally everywhere, with big displays in major supermarkets. It clearly didn't go over very well, because I've seen multiple places blowing it out at rock-bottom prices. It is YMMV: I've seen it for 97 cents each at one Sobeys, 75 cents each at one local Safeway, 4/$5.00 at another Safeway.

The funny thing is that one of the stores still had a bunch of stock with the Buy 3 Get 1 Free coupon attached to the boxes. So a person could have cleared out the lot and paid next to nothing each.

Somebody must have bought them, because they're all gone at my local supermarkets now.

I've bought all 3 to try out last year. Not something I'll buy again, it was just meh. The Jalepeno was the best out of 3, and even then, I wouldn't buy again. At these prices, I MIGHT re-consider, but I wouldn't go out of my way to get it.

Buy the standard cheese powder in bulk and get these cheap boxes to save on kd? From what people are saying it's not even worth buying and donating, which I guess is generally true with stuff like this. They need food with more nutritional value to make it into the food banks.

When you’re being downvoted on reddit, you know you’re on the right side of history.

the regular flavor one tastes ok imo

kd is just better tho and has more pasta per box, which is not saying much, on both levels

i usually eat pretty healthy, but tried this just to see. will likely never go back

I remember seeing these at some stores for $4 a box. Like, how could this possibly have cost so much? That's insane. Kd regularly goes on sale for a few for a buck yet this used to cost $4 for one?

And apparently this tastes terrible. Glad I never got the chance to try it.

The Freshco near me was clearing out a bunch of odd KD flavouring powders. I'm not sure I understand why these companies feel the need to create these exTrEMe FlaVouRS.

That said, I'd buy these to use with regular KD, maybe in a 2-1 or 3-1 ratio? Can't beat the price.

I disagree about the shit taste although I've never actually eaten shit. These do taste like they'll give you colon cancer.
