The Other Hand Font: A stroke of snack-stained genius
Cheetos has unveiled The Other Hand Font to celebrate National Handwriting Day, a quirky typeface inspired by the infamous orange fingertips left behind by their snacks.
Goodby Silverstein & Partners designed the font using non-dominant hands—a nod to the universal struggle of one-handed multitasking while snacking on Cheetos.
Chief Creative Officer of PepsiCo Foods US, Chris Bellinger, says, “The beauty of this campaign is that it reflects a very real truth: most people eat Cheetos with their dominant hand, leaving their ‘other hand’ to handle life’s messiness.”
The Other Hand campaign
Cheetos’ Other Hand campaign has celebrated the chaos and creativity that comes with snack dust for over a year.
From hilarious stunts to interactive fan activities, the campaign thrives on embracing life’s messy moments.
This new font lets fans embody the spirit of Cheetos in their daily digital lives. Whether creating work presentations or adding a messy flair to personal projects, The Other Hand Font is an amusing way to show off your love for the snack.

Rich Silverstein, founder of Goodby Silverstein & Partners, adds, “This font embodies Cheetos like nothing else. Crafting it with our non-dominant hands was an unforgettable experience.”
