Unless you are purposely going for that bloated look I would recommend not eating an entire bag of cheddar Chex Mix.

All by yourself.

In one sitting.

In related news, I may need to get my engagement ring re-sized, but hopefully this is just a temporary situation due to extraordinary salt intake.

I seriously feel like I am going to explode.

Don’t try this at home.

   I’m a chex mix traditionalist myself, and yes, I could eat an entire bag of it in one sitting with no help from anyone. Well, maybe I wouldn’t finish off all the pretzels. There are usually way too many pretzels, which are my least favorite part of the mix.

   Drink two beers and call me in the morning.

   Well, in your defense, the bags are kind of small! When I eat Chex Mix, I purposely have to put it into a little bowl just for that reason.

   ps – When I get reincarnated, I may come back as a horse just to get the salt licks!

   It’s the cheese powder.

   I share your pain. I couldn’t button my jacket today, and I blamed PMS bloating and those cookies I ate yesterday. Pure, melt-in-your-mouth sugar cookies. Mmmmm.

   LOL! Um. Been there, done that, I know the pain of which you speak. Hope your digestive acid gets crankin’ soon!

   My kids LOVE this stuff, but only the chex pieces. They don’t like the pretzels and crackers in there.

   You may have issued a challenge if I could actually get that stuff here…

   You crack me up. I suggest avoiding the same with Snyders of Hanover honey-mustard and onion pretzel bits. It’s the delectable powder coating that gets me.

    Wow. I can TOTALLY relate. I ate TWO Fiber One bars yesterday. Which was a seriously foolish, foolish mistake. OMG.

    I presume you were just trying to replace all the calories you burned off by doing the running man with Top Chef illuminati.

    I do the same thing (with the orginal varity) and feel SICK after. But I just can’t stop myself. It’s so good. It’s so salty. It wants me to eat it. Then I have to follow up with a candy bar. And I don’t even like chocolate!

    Oh thanks for the tip, I love that stuff and Lord knows I don’t need to be more bloated than I am.
