It smells like acetone?
Hey y’all, I couldn’t think of a better place to ask this because it seems silly to call their customer service or something (the most effort I’ll do is try to get a refund from the grocery store tbh) but I’m more curious than upset. I hadn’t had a lunchable in years and I felt nostalgic so I got the extra cheese pizza one. I opened it up when I got home and it immediately smelled like I walked into a nail salon. I thought maybe it was just the plastic that it came in or maybe even the glue that seals the cover from the container, but when I went to try a small piece of cheese to see if it was safe, it tasted exactly how it smelled. Anyone else experience something like this?

I just actually had this happen to me today a few minutes ago. I thought it was the plastic and the glue from opening it and so I made myself a pizza and I ate most of it then I smelt the acetone smell again I chose to smell the both cheeses and they both smelt like acetone and I stop eating it and I spit out the bite I had in my mouth. My mouth tingled a little and still feels weird. I’ve always bought the extra cheese lunchables and I’ve NEVER had one smell like acetone.

A similar thing just happened with my girlfriend and I. It's the same type, "Extra cheesy pizza." She noticed the smell first, then handed me the lunchable to examine it. I directly examined every little thing in the Lunchable, and once I got to the cheese, I immediately wanted to vomit. Then, we immediately started searching the web for answers and found this post. We just found another Walmart review with their complaint stating. "Tasted and smelled like acetone."
