Schools in California, New Mexico, and Illinois have taken it upon themselves to prohibit students from ingesting Frito-Lay's "Flamin' Hot Cheetos", even going so far as to confiscate them from a student's lovingly packed lunch from home.

The reason? The off-shoot of the popular cheese flavored corn snack is a part of a wide range of foods that are "Hyperpalatable", sweet, salty, or fatty foods that trigger brain responses akin to those who are addicted to drugs or alcohol.

It also presents a janitorial concern do the the stains it leaves on children's fingers.
 
Great. Now how about rehauling the processed junk you serve for lunch? Oh, and your physical education classes too while you're at it.

Flamin' Hot Cheetos and other snacks are only one incredibly tiny part of problem.

Also...why just Flamin' Hot Cheetos? That oddly specific. Does it mean that they can still bring other kind of Cheetos or other snacks?

These kids are going to start crushing them up and snorting them, or injecting them intravenously before they get on the bus.

The stuff is bad.

You can see who makes meth by checking his fingers and you can check who's been eating Cheetos by checking his fingers. Huh.
 
If parents can't properly feed their kids, nor do their kids have self-control, why should it be the schools' job to pick up the slack for the parents' neglect?

Also, going through a similar to public phys. ed program at my private school , it was a joke. I believe it was for once a week and it was nothing really like my high school gym class in freshman year. Now that class was far more strenuous and actually required exercise.

Bolt I love your reply, but I have to repost two that was in the comment section of this link:

bet they're banned because they think (the schools)the kids'll wanna do Cannabis !!!!!!!

You want the Cheetos after you do the cannabis.

I actually knew a kid dumb enough to do that with a red cinnamon tic-tac, said it made his nose burn like hell

It shouldn't, but now some schools in California have MADE it their job.

Honestly, I can understand the restrictions on sodas and snack foods being sold within the school. I support that, because those things should not have been there in the first place.

Confiscating something from a student's lunch made at home is overstepping their bounds.
