No one likes the pretzels in Chex Mix. No one. Some people might eat the pretzels just because they are in the bag with other tasty treats, but they don't actually enjoy the experience. The rest of us pick out the good stuff and slide the pretzels back in the bag for the next unsuspecting snacker.
This is true no matter what shape you twist your favorite little crunchy bread products into. You think you can include more pretzels if you make them into different shapes. You are wrong. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHETHER THEY ARE "O" SHAPED OR MADE INTO FUNKY WINDOW SQUARE THINGOS, THEY STILL TASTE LIKE UNDERSEASONED CARDBOARD.
Please reconsider your excessive and unnecessary use of pretzels in an otherwise tasty treat. If not, your mailbox might soon be overflowing with circles and window square thingos. And probably ants. And maybe someone's finger, but you didn't hear that from me.
Sincerely,
Brenna

Make your own! And put decent pretzels in it. Isn't there a recipe on the box of Chex cereal?
ReplyDeleteBack in the recesses of my mind I remember making Chex Mix, most likely before you could buy it in a bag. But, you know, that would require effort. It's easier to eat around crappy pretzels. :)
ReplyDeleteActually, this is a great idea. Maybe The Girl and I will make some over Christmas vacation. Thanks for the idea, and for reading and commenting!
Hey! I *only* eat the pretzels out of chex mix. I hate those crunchy bready things. Maybe you can just send me the bag of pretzels when you're done? ;)
ReplyDeleteHey! Maybe I can arrange that! Does it bother you that several fingers have been on the pretzels before repacking? :)
ReplyDeleteFunny--I never liked chex mix except for the pretzels. Apparently I'm not alone!
ReplyDeleteI'll start packaging up the extras for ya, ELF. LOL!
ReplyDeleteBrenna, the bigger concern here is that some of your readers don't seem to realize that pretzels come in their very own bags. ;)
ReplyDeleteThat's true! You can always buy your own pretzels and enjoy them all you want. :)
ReplyDeletebut if you buy pretzels in pretzel bags you don't get the tasty chex mix seasoning on them!
ReplyDeleteEh, OK, that's true. And it's all about the seasoning for sure!
ReplyDeleteI'm fine with the pretzels but eat around those dark melba toasts! Of course, I rarely eat Chex mix unfortunately... I love the other flavors though like turtle and any flavor involving chocolate and/or peanut butter!!
ReplyDeleteI like the toasts! We should share a bag :)
