Why Does Eating Cheetos Cause Diarrhea?

Hey ladies and gentlemen, I have a little query about the Cheetos they sell, particularly in the "Hot" flavor.

Do you perhaps have any explanation to why I always get diarrhea after eating them? It's literally a big pain and I cannot afford to quit on the Cheetos.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood your concerns.
Very short and specific query and information you have.
Cheetos has something that your intestines can not tolerate and hence the body want to through it out at the earliest which in your case occurs as diarrhea.
Hence the treatment is as follows:
Prevention is better than cure is a age-old adage and hence you have to stop Cheetos and find something that helps to help your craving but no Cheetos.
Trying some medicines would not help and in fact can cause more or other problems as these will disturb the routine that your body and intestines has.
So no more Cheetos.
I find this answer helpful
