Gotta Catch 'Em All: Cheetozard, The $88,000 Cheeto

There is a random wealthy millennial that just proved that some of us are not ready to have "Adult Money". How? By spending ALMOST $88,000 ON A CHEETO... But before we get too hard on them, it was a pretty cool Cheeto shaped like Charizard! One could even say its Cheetozard! (90's kids will understand how cool this is)

The Cheeto, named "Cheetozard" (Who doesn't love a good pun) was sold at an online auction this week for a staggering grand total of $87,840.

What’s So Special About This Cheeto?

This Cheeto isn't just any regular snack. It’s shaped like Charizard, which is a fan favourite from the hit cartoon series Pokémon.

But more importantly, the packaging for Cheetozard came with a custom Pokémon card (SO CUTE)! It's about three inches long and has been kept safe for years.

The Cheetozard has been around for a while but didn’t get much attention until last year when it went viral. An Instagram post by the store got over half a million likes in 2024! People loved seeing the unique snack, and it quickly became a fun, collectible item.

What Do People Think About the Sale?

When the auction announced that the Cheetozard was sold, people had a lot to say about it! Some couldn’t believe that someone would spend so much money on a Cheeto.

One person joked, "If I was on death row, I'd want this to be my final meal!" Others were curious about who would actually buy a $88,000 snack.

This does have the same vibe as the banana duct-taped to a wall that sold at an art auction for over 6 million dollars.

The lesson here is to keep an eye on your snacks, if you're lucky enough one of them could make you a ton of money down the road!
