"Knights Templar cartel" I'd laugh, but then I'd be forced to drink from the wrong cup (blind taste test). Maybe Pepsi Co can hire whatever BlackWater is calling itself these days to do some Cheeto dusting.

Perhaps the most bizarre part of the story: the perpetrators. A smaller splinter group of the western La Familia cartel, the Knights Templar have emerged only recently as a self-styled Christian military order. ... Knights Templar propaganda likewise paints them as a muscle-bound medieval knights. Who are now at war with Cheetos - and Pepsi. Read that again. Thankfully, no one was hurt.

The Assassins are not pleased.

*Insert joke about the Templars trying to stop Cheetos to get a gamers here*

Only to have the cartels offering more to the mercs so that they work for them.

I think the cartels just made a big mistake.

You can kill innocent women and children.

But you cause measurable finanical harm to a US based, multi-national, billion dollar corporation?

That will not be tolerated.

Cheetos Marshmallow Treats
Ingredients

2T butter
4c mini marshmallows
6c Cheetos, roughly chopped (I averaged 3 pieces per Cheeto)
Directions

Prep a 9×13 pan with whatever it is you might prep it with so the treats don't stick in there.
Melt butter in a big pot on the stove.
Add in marshmallows and melt those as well, stirring occasionally.
Stir in chopped Cheetos until they are covered in melted mallow.
Smash Cheetos mix into your prepared pan and let cool.
Cut and consume.
The sweetness of the marshmallow takes a second to hit you. So you take a bite, and you are like, "Cheetos...Cheetos...Cheetos...oooh, marshmallow!" Awesome.

Inadvertent bonus: The marshmallow seals in the Cheetos, so while your taste buds are covered in cheesy-mallowy-goodness, your fingers remain dust-free!

Obviously the Mercenaries would be tracked by some sort of organization so they could be traced back to the Cartels. Mercs use guns and stuff, so maybe ATF could handle that.

Which puts into perspective just what the local merchants have to deal with. Imaging the ignorance of these pendejos demanding eleventy million pesos from some schmuck who runs a distribution terminal...

"In CASH, by tomorrow or we keeel you"! Even if the guy told his PepsiCo overlords, they would just smirk and threaten to fire him if he got killed.

From the article:

If you're looking to coerce the manager who is writing the checks, you might as well try to threaten a computer database.

Actually, if you think about it, that's probably the worst idea in the world. Fark with the little guy, sure, but you start threatening a multi-billion dollar conglomerate, you'll see how quickly the corporate machine revs up to crush your sorry ass into the ground. Something tells me that Pepsi-Co isn't above hiring a PMC to stomp out a cartel that's pissing them off.

Yes, because local delivery to bodegas in Mexico is just the sort of job that we have lost millions of.

So now Cheeto death squads will roam the streets of Mexico dispensing street justice to the cartels. Chop off their heads fill their mouths full of cheetos and cover the bodies in orange dust.
