I like to freak the kids out by eating that stuff. My guess is that
packing peanuts can be an important part of a balanced breakfast. :-)

My suggestion is that you buy Walgreens brand cheese puffs. That stuff
doesn't have much taste to it. The main problem will be getting the
flavorings to stick to the puffs. I predict that this will be most
difficult.
