I am a huge fan of this snack food and will be seeing this movie! According to AVClub.com, Searchlight Pictures has announced that first-time director Eva Longoriaâs Cheetos movie, Flaminâ Hot, will premiere on both Hulu and Disney+ on the same dayâJune 9.
The press release also described the film as  âthe inspiring true storyâ of a Frito-Lay janitor who âdisrupted the food industry by channeling his Mexican-American heritage to turn Flaminâ Hot Cheetos from a snack into an iconic global pop culture phenomenon,â though, as we learned a couple of years ago, that inspiring true story isnât quite so trueâwhich the producers of Flaminâ Hot have apparently been aware of for years. But the fake story is so much more interesting than the real story, which is basically that the snack experts at Frito-Lay thought people would like a spicy version of Cheetos and they were right. Richard MontaĂąez, the former janitor who claimed to have invented the product, was supposedly a big evangelist for Flaminâ Hot Cheetos within the company, but Frito-Lay admitted after an investigation that he didnât create the snack himself.
