We thought this dip was delicious! Made it for the super bowl and it satisfies my cheesy nacho dip craving. I didn't think it was a weird color, though it's not orangy cheesy like you'd expect nacho cheese dip to be. But it tastes just as good. I will definitely make this again, really easy for entertaining.
