Food blogger Snackolator reports that Cheetos is releasing “new White Cheddar Snowy Cheese Balls Minis.” The cheesy corn puffs take a detour away from the usual Cheetos packaging, coming in a canister instead of a bag.
The canisters, which will be available in both mini and standard sizing, are Christmas-themed, with an illustration of Chester Cheetah, the Cheetos mascot, wearing a Santa hat and holding out two palms full of the snack.
Additionally, the canisters have a gift tag cleverly emblazoned on the top, hinting to consumers that they can be given out as gifts for the holiday season.

Snackolator reports that while the white cheddar mini cheese balls will be available at Target, it is unclear if they will be available elsewhere. According to the Target website, the 3.625 oz size retails for $3.79 and the 1.5 oz size retails for $2.19, though at the time of publication, both appeared to be out of stock at the national retailer.
