What Is in Chex Mix?<\/h2>\r\nThe first recipe for Chex Mix appeared on the back of the cereal boxes in the early 1950s. A simple recipe back then, the oven-baked mixture called for Rice and Wheat Chex (the only flavors available at the time), nuts, Worcestershire sauce<\/a>, butter and garlic salt. Today, the official Chex Mix recipe is a zesty and salty blend that includes Corn Chex, pretzels and bagel chips. The retail bagged versions also include rye chips and mini breadsticks.\r\n
