# Trying Famous Snacks vs Their Cheap Versions: Is the Original Worth It?

In the world of popular snacks and products, the eternal question always arises: is it worth spending more buying the original brands, or is it better to opt for the cheaper versions? In the video “TRYING FAMOUS SNACKS vs THEIR CHEAP VERSION!” precisely this experiment is carried out, where a group of friends tries an interesting selection of famous snacks along with their more affordable imitations.

## A Flavored Farewell

The video begins with a personal note: the creator explains that he won’t be able to return to Mexico until the end of the year, so this episode also serves as a farewell video for his followers, showing closeness and expressing how much he misses his community.

## The Flavor Challenge

The video’s dynamic revolves around tasting original products and their copies, comparing flavor, texture, packaging, and above all, the overall experience. Among the main products are classics like Takis, Oreo, Doritos, Nutella, Coca-Cola, and their cheap equivalents which in some cases even carry very similar names, such as “Atomics” for Takis or “Neo” for Oreos.

The experiment becomes especially fun when they decide to blindfold themselves to try and guess which is the original brand and which is the cheaper version based only on taste and aroma. The participants’ reactions are spontaneous and lively, highlighting the differences and similarities.

### Takis vs Atomics

The first showdown is between the famous Takis and their “Atomics” version. Here, the opinions are quite revealing: the cheap version has a smell that one participant described as “playdough-like” and a flavor that didn’t excite the palate at all, earning low scores. In contrast, the original Takis clearly won the battle.

### Oreo vs Neo

In the case of Oreo-type cookies, the copycat (“Neo”) is surprisingly good. The packaging is almost identical, and in flavor, although there are slight differences in texture and softness, “Neo” stands as a close and quite acceptable option compared to the original.

### Cheetos vs Bocachitos

With the famous Cheetos and their replica “Bocachitos,” the experience was not very fortunate, as both brands showed unappealing flavors and an unpleasant texture, making this snack the least recommended in the test.

### Fruit Loops vs Magic Looks

A very curious segment is the comparison between Fruit Loops cereal and their “Magic Looks” version, finding that the imitation even copied the logo and design with many similarities. When tasted blindfolded, identifying the original was easy for the participants, possibly due to differences in color and flavor.

### Nutella vs Dulza

Finally, the iconic Nutella faces “Dulza,” a copy with very similar packaging and container. Surprisingly, the cheap version was well received and recommended, showing that in this case, the most expensive isn’t always synonymous with better taste or quality.

### Coca-Cola vs Red Cola

Although the video ends somewhat inconclusively in this part, it also shows the attempt to compare the famous Coca-Cola with a version called Red Cola, questioning how it’s possible for imitations to use almost identical designs without legal consequences.

## Conclusion: Original or Copy?

The video is an entertaining and transparent experience, showing that although in some cases cheap copies can be quite acceptable (like with the cookies and Nutella), in others the difference is vast and it’s definitely worth paying a little more for the original (like with Takis and Cheetos).

Moreover, the friendly tone, jokes, and camaraderie among the participants make this type of content more than just a simple tasting, but a shared experience that connects with many snack lovers. If you enjoy flavor challenges and market differences between originals and imitations, this video is a must-watch.
