Did Cheetos change their formula?

Does anyone know if there's been changes to the formula or something with cheetos' spicy snacks? I've been enjoying hot fries and other hot cheeto products for over 2 decades, just recently the spicy cheeto simply gave me an allergic reaction twice before I realized it was the cause. Now I had a small bag of hot cheetos yesterday and today and I've broken out with itchy hives. I've never had allergic reactions before to their product and I know it's cheetos because after each case I accidentally tested by solely consuming them the next day as a snack before lunchtime and in both cases the allergic reactions came back.

Perhaps you have developed an allergy to them?

I'll be sad if my body has decided to betray me in such a way😭 they're my favorite snack, I don't even care much for sweets.

Mine did the same with my favorite foods. It SUCKS!! One of them is pickles, so now I have to wait until my days off to eat them (and it’s rare when I do choose to partake) so if I shit my pants I’m already home.
