Everyone who eats Cheetos knows what it's like getting that orange dust all over your fingers, hands, and probably, clothes. But did you know there's a name for it?
According to Chester Cheetah himself, Cheetos dust is actually called....."cheetle."
Yes, this is actually a thing and not everyone is getting behind the name.

One Twitter user said Rich Hall used the term in his skits in the 1980s and his book "Sniglets."
Others weren't happy about the change.

No, no, no you ain't gonna pull a GIF creator and after literally decades be like "Um...actually it's called ____". Who the hell is gonna call it Cheetle? "Oh man my fingers are covered in Cheetle" sounds rediculous. "Dude you got Cheeto dust on your shirt". Much better.

Sorry you can't make this a thing. Cheeto dust is bigger than all of us.
