Have you tried Cheerios Snack Mix yet? If not, pick up a bag the next time you are at the grocery store. Take it home, pour it into a bowl, and watch how fast it disappears. We got a bag of the Cheddar flavor, which was just okay, next time I’d like to try the Original. Cheerios Snack Mix is a General Mills product.
The mix consists of six different things-Multigrain Cheerios, small twist pretzels, Wheat Chex (also a General Mills brand), Corn Chex, triangle-shaped cheese crackers, and bread twists. The cheddar flavoring reminded me a LOT of the powder used in Kraft Macaroni and Cheese, to be honest. I would have preferred a sharper tasting cheese, but my boys thought it was just the right flavor. We all wished there were more of the “bread twists”, which are like a small breadstick. Interestingly, the bread twists had the least amount of cheese powder on them too. Some of the Chex pieces were so covered in the powder, they were almost too salty.
Nutritionally, Cheerios Snack Mix is not a bad choice. A 2/3 cup serving has 120 calories, 3 grams of fat (0 grams of trans fat), 1 gram of fiber, and 3 grams of protein. The sodium content is high though, 310 milligrams per serving, and that’s assuming you stop after just 2/3 cup. The amount that fits in one of those plastic snack-size storage bags is perfect for tossing in a lunch box or taking along in the car for when the munchies hit. I still prefer the original Chex Mix, but Cheerios Snack Mix is a yummy alternative.

I have a feeling my bf might pick this up from the store before I even get the chance to tell him about it. It sounds very yummy, and the first thing we do when we have a little disposable income is load up on snack foods. It’s great for the diet, really.
