A Brief History of Muddy Buddies
Muddy Buddies have a rich history rooted in homemade snack traditions. Originally, they were a homemade treat where Chex cereal pieces were coated in a mixture of melted chocolate and peanut butter, then tossed in powdered sugar. This combination created a snack that was both easy to make and incredibly delicious. Recognizing the popularity of this homemade delight, Chex Mix introduced a commercial version, bringing Muddy Buddies to a wider audience and solidifying their place in the snack world.

Chex Mix has expanded the Muddy Buddies lineup to include a variety of flavours, catering to diverse palates. Some of the standout options include:
