Salty & Savory Snacks
I found this category the hardest to switch. Cheetos?! Doritos?! It took so long to test out and find our faves.
The BEST nacho dorito swap ❤️
If you have an Aldi near you, Clancy’s has a dorito swap that is decent as well. Not as good as this one though!
Late July Nacho Cheese Tortilla Chips 7.8oz
The best swap for Cool Ranch Doritos! Aldi is second best.

The best Cheeto puff swap. Cant tell a difference!
