"Hot Cheetos and Takis:" Junk food pop music perfection

Junk food and pop music are a perfect pair. I'm pretty sure that the nutritional value of that Carley Rae Jepson song is exactly equivalent to a bag of Cheetos. Thus, the music video of ten year olds rapping about junk food that Rolling Stone is calling "the summer's final truly great jam." About halfway through I had a panic attack about pop music enabling type-2 diabetes and then I got over it and just enjoyed the song. As LA Weekly notes, "If you were a kid, would you write a song about quinoa and carrots? Didn't think so."

    I, for one, will not let your smear campaign against Carly Rae Jepson go unpunished. If anything, "Call Me Maybe" has the nutritional value of Baked Cheetos, which boast all the cheese and none of the fat.
