Fact: Chester Cheetah is the Cheetos mascot.
Fact: Cheetahs are fast.
Inference: Chester is fueled primarily by Cheetos, perhaps explaining his fluorescent orange hue.
Inference: Chester, being a cheetah, is fast.
Conclusion: Cheeto consumption leads to fast running. It would be A Good Idea for me to eat copious amounts of Cheetos before my run.
Logicians advise: where could my careful reasoning have gone so drastically awry?
Sounds perfectly logical to me! But, then, I thought the 12 hours immediately preceding my fed tax final were better spent studying rather than sleeping, so maybe I'm not the best one to ask.

Makes perfect sense to me, too. I regularly make the judgment that a smaller amount of junk food is the nutritional equivalent to an actual meal.

Hel-LO! Chester is a MALE. You're not! The cheeto campaign is sexist B.S., because cheetos only make MALES run faster. Duh!
You'd need, like, a female-specific Cheeto formula to get the same speed benefits as Chester. Plus you'd need the same kind of track shoes that Chester wears. (I bet you don't have a pair, do you, Missy?)
