    Yea, I married one of those white chex too and thankfully my daughter turned out the same but variety is important in a marriage.:hihi:

    OK, I feel very strongly about this.

    1. It should be mostly Chex cereal -- 50% corn, 25% rice, and 25% wheat

    2. It should never have bagel chips, which are too big and too brittle. I also never put breadsticks or other white bread.

    3. No bow pretzels (too big), but pretzel sticks broken in half

    4. Sometimes I add some cheese nips, but not often.

    5. No mixed nuts-- cashews and peanuts only.

    6. French's worcestershire sauce is better than Lea & Perrins, . . . really.

    7. Add a couple of shots of Tabasco to the melted butter, or a shake of Tony's, . . . but not too much.

    Serious question......why don't you people just buy what you like and mix your own? :confused:

    Dead on. EVERY time me and my wife are at the mall she has to get one of these. No salt, because a pretzel would make too much since with salt.

    Girl. :hihi: I'm with you on the Dippin' Dots though.

    It's called lazy. Not to mention secret ingredients.

    Seriously, it was your post that made me question some of the other posts in the thread.

    That is his recipe to make Red's own chex mix. He doesnt buy it already put together in the store. My daughter does this with her Grandma.:)

    never even tasted a mall pretzel or a dippin dot. the principle of the matter.


    also, i refuse to go in a starbucks. well i accidentally walk through one occasionally after someone gets a 9 dollar "coffee" thats got freakin ice in it and sometimes whipped cream. 20 dollar pretzels make more sense.

    You dont know what you are missing. Dippin Dots are awesome. They even have a few Dippen Dot stores around but not in LA, you can only get them in the mall and at the movies.
