The article discusses the bizarre trend of fans bidding excessively on a Charizard-shaped Flamin' Hot Cheeto, with a current bid of $4,250. While the author reflects on their disillusionment with the Pokemon franchise, they acknowledge the impressive resemblance of the Cheeto to the beloved Pokemon character. Framed like a card and humorously dubbed 'Cheetozard,' the Cheeto's age only adds to its surreal appeal. The piece illustrates the extremes of collector culture within the world of Pokemon memorabilia.
"This might sound like a story from The Onion, but no, this is a very real thing that you yourself can currently bid on over at Goldin."
"The seller has even put it in a little custom frame that looks like a Pokemon card, dubbing it Cheetozard, perhaps predictably."
