Corn Chex cereal

Chex Corn Cereal is a type of crispy cereal made from corn, known for its characteristic shape of small squares or elongated squares that provide a light and crunchy texture. It is commonly used for breakfast with milk, as well as in baking recipes and snacks, especially in mixes known as "trail mix" or "muddy buddies".

This cereal originated in the United States, where it was developed by the General Mills company in the 1930s. Since then, it has become popular in various countries, standing out for its versatility in the kitchen.

Regarding its properties, Chex corn cereal is low in fat and is usually fortified with vitamins and minerals, such as iron and some B-complex vitamins. Additionally, it is low in sodium and does not contain gluten in its original version, making it suitable for people with gluten intolerance or celiac disease.

Depending on the country and region, this cereal may be known simply as “crispy corn cereal” or “little square corn crackers”. In some Hispanic American countries, although there is no exact synonym, it may be related to more general terms such as “corn cereal” or “square-shaped corn flakes”.
