They're also incredibly bad for you. They're like drinking oil with a little bit of crushed flour and salt mixed in.

Which is also what makes them super delicious. Fat, crunch, Umami, salt. Most snacks also have sugar added even if they're not "sweet".

I truly find them disgusting. This is really starting to seem like astroturfing. I'm borderline about pulling it.

I don't think it's astroturfing to talk about what food engineers have figured out about human taste preferences.

A lot of people spent a lot of time and money figuring out what drives people to mindlessly eat. Then the ignored the health ramifications and started selling a lot of products that are just different textures of salted sugar fat with glutamate.

Same reason you'll absentmindedly eat a basket of bread if you have cinnamon butter, or cinnamon rolls.
We can use the food science to predict that there's probably a mild aged cheese that would be great on a cinnamon roll.
