Over the next few weeks, you may receive Oven Baked CHEETOS Crunchy Whole Grain Rich Cheese Snacks SVL (0.875 oz) indicating that the product is either 110 or 120 calories. Calculations showed this product to contain 110 calories based on rounding, but analytical testing confirmed that 120 calories is the most accurate reflection of our formula.

TO CONFIRM, THIS PRODUCT IS COMPLIANT WITH USDA “SMART SNACK IN SCHOOLS” CRITERIA. Please find below the unrounded information that confirm compliance.

Ami N Childers Danielle Dalheim, RD Education Strategy Director Senior Manager – Regulatory Affairs PepsiCo Away From Home Frito-Lay North America May 1, 2017 USDA Buy American Provision – Frito-Lay Products The Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act (“NSLA”) contains a “Buy American” provision (Section 12(n)) essentially requiring that school food authorities (“SFAs”) purchase domestically grown and processed food products. As clarified in a February 2012 USDA memorandum, the NSLA defines a “domestic” commodity or product as one that is produced and processed in the United States and substantially uses agricultural commodities that are also produced in the United States. USDA further relies on one of the reports accompanying the legislation to interpret the term “substantially,” as used above, to require that over 51% of the final processed product consists of agricultural commodities that were grown domestically. The purpose of this letter is to provide a certification, made in good-faith, that the following Frito-Lay products were produced domestically and have at least 51% US content, and therefore qualify under the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act’s Buy American provision for purchasing food and food products used in the Child Nutrition Program. Frito-Lay Products All Baked! Cheetos® Cheese Snacks All Baked!
