A Twitter user is sparking a massive regional debate all with a seemingly simple question: “What is this snack called?”. Claire Downs, a TV writer and researcher based in Los Angeles, posed the question in a May 22 tweet... that has since received nearly 7,000 replies. In her post, she shared a close-up photo of a bowl of Chex cereal covered in a powdery, sugary substance. Downs originally wrote that her brother-in-law, who is from Oklahoma, calls the mixture “white trash,”. adding that to him, it’s considered a Christmastime treat. Commenters replied to Downs’ tweet with a wide-ranging array of suggestions —. from “puppy chow” to “muddy buddies” to “reindeer poo”. “In the Florida swampland we call that Satan’s teeth, or Christmas Crunchers during the holiday,” one user claimed. Others were completely perplexed by the argument, writing that they’d never heard of the snack food.
