This is so good! I make two flavors by adding the horseradish in the second half of the batch... You can switch the Snack Items for what ever kinds of snacks you like. This is great for parties and movie nights or Oscar Parties! This is not my own photo, it is a free stock photo from the internet, it is an example of what a version of the snack mix looks like.

    This is time consuming, and worth the effort! *** I sometimes do this with Ruffled Potato Chips... just the chip... and so good!
