"Mana from heaven" is an old name for a wonder-food. It's not an MtG reference.

Any specific wonder food? Also, what is mtg? (feeling super out of the loop now. Lol)

Mtg is Magic the Gathering, a turn-based card game

Ah. I know what it is - it was popular with certain groups in elementary/high school - just never played it. Edit: I also forgot about the "MtG" abbreviation.

No, the line just means "cheetos are so good, man".

Sounds like a stoner phrase to me then - that's all I can think to explain it.

Just to clarify a little bit: in biblical terms, mana was what god rained down upon the Israelites during their wandering of the desert after the exodus from Egypt.

From what I recall, there was a lot of stoning in the Bible.

Haha too true.
