Kylie Kelce is addressing her 2025 Super Bowl snack habits going viral.
“It’s very possible that a lot of you saw a photo circulating from the game of me housing a bag of Cheetos,” Kelce, 32, said on the Friday, February 14, episode of her “Not Gonna Lie” podcast. “Couple things to take away from this photo: I do love Cheetos. They’re delicious, crunchy snacks [and] salty. There’s no notes.”
Kylie’s husband, retired Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, chimed in to question whether anyone doesn’t enjoy eating Cheetos.
“I don’t know who doesn’t like Cheetos. I think [my brother] Travis even likes Cheetos,” Jason, 37, quipped, which surprised Kylie since her brother-in-law, 35, is a “picky” eater.
Jason and Kylie Kelce Spotted at Super Bowl
Jason and Kylie traveled to New Orleans earlier this month to watch Travis, a tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, play in Super Bowl LIX against the Eagles. They sat in a private suite alongside Jason’s parents, Donna and Ed Kelce, and Travis’ girlfriend, Taylor Swift.
While the Chiefs ultimately lost 40-22, a photo circulated online of Kylie — dressed in a black T-shirt to avoid pledging allegiance to either team — pouring Cheetos into her mouth directly from a small snack bag.
“If you catch me eating any type of bagged item in public … I will be dumping it into my mouth from the bag,” Kylie stated. “First of all, cut out the middleman [and] second, I didn’t have the opportunity to wash my hands. My germaphobia said, ‘Dump it right in.’”
She added, “Sometimes, I will crunch up, like, if I have Doritos … so that they slide out of the bag and into my mouth in a nicer fashion.”

Jason, however, took an opposing standpoint.
“You de-triangle ’em? That’s probably [the best part] … I mean, you have some very weird eating habits,” Jason, a guest on Kylie’s podcast in honor of Valentine’s Day, replied. “Between that and cereal, I think you are very misguided in a lot of your junk food eating habits.”
Kylie jokingly replied, “But you married me, sucker!”
Jason and Kylie tied the knot in April 2018 several years after matching on dating app Tinder. They later welcomed daughters Wyatt, 5, Ellie, 3, and Bennett, 23 months, and are currently expecting baby No. 4.
Despite Jason’s hesitation to her dietary habits, Kylie asserted that she still “stands by” her methodology.
“I really think it’s an efficient way [to] cut out the middleman,” she said. “I couldn’t rush my way to the bathroom to wash my hands. And even if I had when I came back into the suite, who knows if I needed to grab the door, then I gotta figure out what hand to touch [and] I’m out on highly touched surfaces.”
She concluded, “I’m gonna keep washing my hands and dumping the Cheetos into my mouth, whatever.”
