The Raw Story's Brad Reed said the calorie count "sounds surprisingly low given how you’re eating deep-fried synthetic dairy goo."

This isn't information that's helpful. "Sounds surprisingly low," is not scientific, and is his opinion, which amounts to almost nothing since he seems to have no training, or special interest in biology, or thermodynamics, or anything which would make his views worthwhile in an academic setting. He then doubles this up with "deep-fried synthetic goo." How is it synthetic goo, and why would synthetic goo have any more calories than "natural" goo. What is goo? Is it goo because he doesn't understand its chemistry? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 170.173.0.16 (talk) 02:57, 30 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please remove that Burger King was the first company to have a hybrid fast food product of Cheetos. They were not.
