Some people collect rare Pokémon cards. Others look for old toys. But one lucky buyer just got something very different—a Flamin’ Hot Cheeto shaped like Charizard!
This special Cheeto, called "Cheetozard," sold for almost $88,000 (around 77 lakhs) at an auction. The online marketplace Goldin included it in its February 2025 Pop Culture Elite Auction.
It all started with a $250 bid on February 10. But soon, people went crazy for it. After 60 bids, the price reached $72,000 on March 2. When Goldin added extra costs, the final price became a jaw-dropping $87,840.
Cheetozard is only three inches long, but it even has a custom Pokémon card! This snack has a cool backstory.
