Cereal and Stuff

Mix and set aside:
9-12 cups of "anything" - popcorn, cereal (Chex, cheerios, sugar pops,or other), nuts, pretzels, or cheetos.

Bring the following to a boil, in a heavy saucepan:
1/2 cup butter or margarine
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup corn syrup

Add:
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. cream of tartar
Continue stirring until it turns caramel color. Remove from heat.

Add:
1/2 tsp. vanilla
Cover for 30 seconds. it may spit at you! Very Hot! Stir. Pour over mix in large pan (I use a roaster). Put it in the oven at 300.Stir every 10-15 minutes for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Remove from oven,empty on counter covered with waxed paper or foil. Store in sealedcontainer when cooled.

Notes:
You can use any combination of cereal, pretzels, popcorn, nuts, orwhatever else you have on hand. No matter what you use, it's going to turn out great and everyone is going to ask for the recipe.
