cheeseballs
Orange puffed snacks
Cheeseballs are spherical snacks made from puffed corn coated in cheese-flavored powder—the kind that leaves orange residue on your fingers.
A cheeseball can also be a single ball-shaped appetizer of blended cheese and seasonings, often rolled in nuts: She brought a cheeseball to the party.
As slang, a cheeseball is someone corny or embarrassingly uncool: He's such a cheeseball with those dad jokes.
