This Chex mix will start a party — even if it's a party of one! Made with Barnacle's Food's Kelp Furikake spice mix. Made with a blend of dried kelp, toasted sesame seeds, bonito flakes, and a dash of sugar this spice mix gives instant richness to any dish. We think it adds a pinch of fun to this umami packed party mix recipe.
