Good news for spicy Cheetos fans out there. Trader Joe’s sells Spicy Cheese Crunchies that are basically a healthier version of Flamin’ Hot Cheetos.

The crunchy corn snacks give you the same punch of flavor that you get with the traditional childhood fave. That’s thanks to paprika and turmeric, which are also used to color the food, instead of red dye. The crunchies are also made with garlic powder, onion powder and citric acid. You don’t have to worry about MSG or any of those other artificial flavors and colors that you find in regular Cheetos, but you’ll still have those trademark red fingertips.

Each serving of Spicy Cheese Crunchies is 130 calories.

You can’t miss the black matte packing with a fistful of bright orange crunchies on the front. Next time you’re prepping for a road trip, grab a bag of these wannabe Flamin’ Hot Cheetos and see how they stack up to the real thing.
