Children who eat crisps with packets bearing the faces of vampires and skeletons have been told they are being "nourished by demons".
The Cheetos crisps brand has been attacked by a Catholic website for glamorising the occult.
Writing for the right-wing religious website Fronda.pl, an anonymous author wrote post a warning against the snack, saying: "Parents be aware of Demonic crisps.
"Demons, skeletons and vampires - these are the new variants of Cheetos snacks. All under the guise of innocent family fun.
"Is this not dabbling in the dangerous world of demons?"
A spokesman for the publication said: "We view these crisps as dangerous as by eating them children will be nourished by demons."
But the crisp band has hit back, suggesting a fuss has been made of nothing.
A spokesman for Cheetos said: "The new range of Demonic crisps are simply intended to cater to the growing popularity among young consumers of horror films."
Polish priest Father Slawomir Kostrzewa last year caused controversy by saying the toy Lego represented a 'world of death' and that their Zombie and Monster Fighter mini-figures could lead children 'to the dark side’.
In 2013, another Polish priest, Father Pawel Popielnicki, slammed Hello Kitty and My Little Pony for being creations of the devil.
