— In-Game Description

Cheesy Poofs are a Utility Item in Fortnite: Battle Royale that was added in Chapter 7: Season 1.

Functionality

Functionality[]

Cheesy Poofs are a hold-to-use item. It takes 2 seconds to start healing, then restores Health - Icon - Fortnite 10 Health per tick. Each tick takes 0.5 seconds, resulting in a total of 15 seconds to fully empty the item. Cheesy Poofs will stop healing once the item is depleted.

Pressing the secondary fire button will allow the player to throw them one charge at a time. These have a small area of effect and can either deal 10 damage an enemy is hit or heal a teammate for Health - Icon - Fortnite 10 Health if a teammate is hit.
