Burger King Is Blowing Everyone's Mind With Its New Mac N' Cheetos Concoction
Thanks to the food porn revolution, it seems like a new frankenfood creation is brought to life before our very eyes almost every day.
Remember when we showed you the Whopperrito not too long ago? Well, if you're still not over the fact that Burger King recently brought a burger-burrito hybrid into the world, you might want to cover your eyes.
Apparently, BK just whipped up a new hybrid snack that might be even more insane -- the Mac n' Cheetos.
Now if you're like most people, hearing this news probably puts a lot of thoughts into your head. Like first and foremost, WTF are these things? Apparently, these strange snacks are just mozzarella sticks on steroids.
Yep, Burger King basically just gave your beloved fried cheese sticks a makeover by swapping out the mozzarella for some melty mac and cheese and ditching the normal bread crumbs for a fancier coating of deep-fried Cheetos crumbs.
I'll admit, I'm not really sure how I feel about this creative take on mozzarella sticks. Given the fact that both Cheetos and mac and cheese make delicious snacks on their own, I feel like Mac n' Cheetos might actually be tasty AF.
However, at the same time, these deep-fried monstrosities look like they might actually be trying to kill you -- or at the very least, cause you to become pretty damn acquainted with the porcelain throne.
Apparently, BK is set to roll out its Mac n' Cheetos nationwide on June 27, so I guess we'll all just have to try them and see for ourselves.
Check out the tweets below to see what people are saying about these insane snacks.

Apparently, these things are basically just mozzarella sticks that swap out the normal cheese and fried breadcrumbs, for some mac and cheese coated in Cheetos crumbs and fried to perfection.

But if you're brave enough to stuff your face with these bougie bites...
