I see that PepsiCo knew better than to mess with the Crunchy Cheetos, the cheese that goes crunch.
Cheetos and Doritos go naked with new products free of artificial colors and flavors

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.
