  • One of the pretzels for sure....I can’t decide. I’m hoping that someone will make a compelling argument that will convince me! 
  • Loading the player...
  • @kpearse99 NOOOO! The rye chip is my #1, and the Wheat Chex is my #2.❤️

    The mini breadstick has to go! 😑
  • @bows22 If a pretzel was going I'd get rid of the square one, because I like how the circle ones fit on my pinky finger  :D

    @keikilove Ugh.... we are on the wrong page again  :s  I LOVE the mini breadstick  :D

    One of the pretzels. No need for two kinds! The Chex catch the seasoning so they can both stay. 

    ETA: Now I want Chex Mix. I haven't eaten since 11 last night (nothing after midnight because of retrieval this morning). I am so hungry. 😕 Poor DH is going to have to deal with me being hangry and caffeine sad for the ride home. Poor guy. 
  • i am with @kpearse99 here on both fronts. 
    BYE rye chip and dont touch my mini breadstick!!!
  • Going to go with a pretzel, as they're repetitive (no strong opinion, but the circle gives more variety in terms of shapes, so I'd go with nixing the square). The Chex pieces soak up all the seasoning, and I really like the rye chips (despite hating rye bread...go figure). 
  • FFMC: I have never had Chex mix. Maybe one of the Chex? Is there a difference between the two? 
  • @_orchid_ Chex is just the plain cereal, Chex Mix is a salty snack (originally, though now there are more flavors) that combine the cereal and other things like mini pretzels with spices and butter/oil.
  • @_orchid_ I think the wheat Chex must have a little more sugar in it because I think it’s kind of sweet and also I think it soaks up more of the seasoning. 

    So basically @k@kpearse99 is dead wrong and the wheat Chex is the best 
  • @bows22 and everyone else...

  • @kpearse99 can we agree that the cheddar Chex mix is actually what is the best??
  • @bows22 100% accurate!!!!!!!!!!!! I love chex mix - I'm just not a fan of the wheat ones haha Don't forget the amazing Turtle Chex Mix or the Peanut Butter ones!!! I also love making Muddy Buddies with Chex Mix!

  • @_orchid_ girl, get yourself to the store and pick up some Chex Mix! 

    Shout-out to @kpearse99 for bringing the sass today!  :D
  • See ya Mini Breadstick! Tastes like nothing. Although, let's be real. A bag of JUST the Chex is where it's at. <3

    @bows22 Yes - Cheddar is so good! I do like original, also. I also agree that, when it's homemade especially, the Wheat Chex have so much flavor. 

    @kpearse99 I love puppy chow...junk food is my weakness, I could eat SO MUCH of this!
  • Late to the party but I am team get rid of a pretzel all the way! They don’t soak up any seasoning and are generally just yuck 
  • I'm on the same page as @keikilove. #1 is rye chip and that breadstick has to go!

  • Well, I think I would be getting fired from General Mills as I couldn’t decided which one to get rid of 😆 I want to eat them all. I don’t care I’m not picky. If my job was on the line then perhaps I would get rid of the square pretzel as the circle pretzels are more fun lol and who needs 2 kinds of pretzels anyways.
