REVIEWS:

This was a very good snack mix. The seasoning is mild, but tasty. As other reviewers suggested I omitted the celery salt and used garlic powder rather than garlic salt. I baked mine in a Pyrex roasting pan and didn't have any issues with burning. My toasted oat cereal did shrivle up and look like something that had been stuck to my daughter's chair for a couple of days. Next time I will just replace them with something else. Because I have an 18 month old I replaced the nuts with Goldfish crackers.

I made it with Wheat Chex, Cheerios, pretzels & peanuts. I poured the melted butter & worcestershire mixture over & then shook seasoned salt, celery salt, garlic powder & onion powder over all, each time I stirred. It had just the right amount of flavor.

WOW!! All that I can say is delicious!! My dad loved this recipe as well as our New Year's guests. Warning: It is addictive!

Not sure what I did wrong, but these burned. Obviously I cooked them on the wrong pan....I used baking sheets. Can someone please advise?? I did take the advice of previous ratings and cut back on the salt, eliminating the garlic salt and using powder instead. They would have tasted great if they hadn't have burned after 10 mins. I even had the heat lower and the rack raised! Help!!

Recipe is a too salty for me. I will probably substitute the garlic salt for powder the next time I make it and maybe eliminate the celery salt altogether.

This recipe was good but there was a tad too much seasoning. Next time I make it I'll cut back.
