The art of eating chex mix
So lets see... Chex, pretzels, peanuts, raisins, and mini m&ms eh
First of all, the key is to try to avoid the chex-mix in the first place. The reason being that once you start munching on those darn bits, you can never stop. But, as hard as you try, it is inevitable, I say. Inevitable!!! The bowl will just stand there looking at you like a siren singing you to shipwreck. This whole waiting and staring game is actually quite good for you in some sense. It builds up the appetite. So, what I would do is... I would finally give in and decide to take a lil bit. If I am taking only a little bit, might as well go for the gold.... mini m&ms.
As I gobble more and more of those orgasmic m&ms, I realize that they are almost over. I save 5 of them! Now my mouth is extremely sugary. I need a break. I dive in for some peanuts and Chex. Note that it is not my intention to eat peanuts and chex at this moment, but I need to since I need to relieve my mouth of the sugar overdose. After munching on a whole lot of chex and peanuts, I introduce some raisins here and there. This leads to munching of some peanut-raisin sandwiches. (you split the peanut and put a raisin in between... it goes better with cashews, but peanuts would do as well)
Soon... all peanuts and chex and raisin fade away. I feel content and I feel sick to a certain degree. I take my break. I take a sip of whatever I am drinking. I finish it off by the 5 mini m&ms that i had saved for the perfect ending. Content !
So that is how a chex-mix is eaten in my world.
Note that I have complete ignored the pretzels... and ignored they shall stay
