This slang phrase refers to the act of smoking a puffed Cheeto as if it were a cigar or lighting the crushed product in a pipe, usually made of aluminum foil. Smoking Cheetos for a prolonged amount of time will yield a mild high, due to the fumes released from the preservatives found in the "orange
dust". A consensus among those known commonly as "The
Chester Club" is that smoking exactly two hundred puffed Cheetos will yield a "high" for about five seconds. The high is said to include amnesia, unconsciousness, and total unresponsiveness to external stimuli. Common among those who blaze the
chester is the number "200". They say "too hunnit er'day" to indicate that they partake of "that good chedda". Despite the popularity of smoking two hundred pieces in order to achieve a high, smoking out of a large pipe known as a "peace pipe" made of aluminum foil is far more effective. This method involves placing and igniting a cheeto into the end of the pipe. The
smoke is inhaled only while the cheeto is ablaze. Participants of this activity usually wear hats that have ear flaps, and modify them to have the flaps
stick outwards from the head. These hats are called "
Chester Hats". Blazing the
Chester originated in northwestern Illinois from a group of teenagers by a fire with nothing but Cheeto puffs and imagination. To this day,
people still "Blaze the
Chester" and might refer to it as "Chasin' the cheetah", "Crankin' da oranj in da tin", and "Tokin' that good chedda".
