Ingredients:
1 box Corn Chex
1 box Rice Chex
1 box Cheerios
16 ounces pretzel sticks
4 cups pecans
1 1/2 cup margarine
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 tablespoons garlic salt
1 teaspoon celery salt
1 1/4 teaspoon red cayenne pepper
4 cups Spanish peanuts

Directions:

Preheat oven to 200 F. In a large roast pan, mix the cereals, pretzels, and pecans together. In a saucepan, melt the margarine on low heat. Add the Worcestershire sauce and the seasonings. Pour this mixture over the cereal mixture in the roast pan. Mix thoroughly until all is coated. Bake for 1 1/2 hours, stirring the mixture every 15 minutes. Add the peanuts and bake for 30 more minutes, again stirring after 15 minutes. Remove the mixture from the oven. Spread it out on brown paper and allow to cool. Store in covered jars.

I've heard that you can use cooking spray instead of the butter or margarine. Mix your cereals and nuts in a shallow roasting pan. Spray with cooking spray. Sprinkle on your spice and Worchestershire sauce. Bake at 300, stirring often.
