Cheesy Poofs: Heal on the Run
Forget standing still to bandage up. **Cheesy Poofs** are the aggressive player's best friend, allowing you to restore health without ever slowing down.
Item Overview
Cheesy Poofs are a signature consumable item introduced in the South Park collaboration event. While they might look like a simple snack, they offer a tactical advantage that no other healing item in the current loot pool possesses: full mobility while consuming.
This item is particularly favored by players using the Cartman Awesom-O skin (purely for thematic reasons, as there is no gameplay buff for specific skins), but it is universally useful in high-mobility modes like the Quints LTM.
Sprint Healing
The defining feature of Cheesy Poofs is that they do not interrupt your movement. You can consume them while walking, running, or even Tactical Sprinting. This allows you to retreat from a fight while simultaneously recovering HP.
Rapid Consumption
Each box takes only 1.5 seconds to eat. Compared to a Med Kit (10s) or Bandages (3s), this is lightning fast. You can easily pop one between shotgun pumps or while repositioning behind cover.
Where to Find Cheesy Poofs
Cheesy Poofs are classified as Rare (Blue) rarity, but they are relatively abundant if you know where to look.
- Cartmanland (Guaranteed)
The highest concentration is in the Cartmanland POI. Look for the concession stands in the "Chili Con Carnival" area. Nearly every food crate here drops Cheesy Poofs.
- Floor Loot & Chests
They can be found in standard chests and as floor loot across the entire island, though the drop rate is higher in named locations.
- Chaos Zones
Areas affected by the Stick of Truth storm shift have an increased spawn rate for Cheesy Poofs.
