Traditional Chex Mix is celebrating the return of bagel chips with the help of Sir Mix-A-Lot to get consumers excited about the updated snack product. The brand's original snack mix will now be rejoined by crispy bagel chips covered in a distinct seasoning to give the product a savory flavor profile to enjoy. The update is being celebrated with a remix of the classic Sir Mix-A-Lot track Baby Got Back with a new version entitled Bagel Is Back, which is accompanied by a promotion video that mimics the original music video.
Sir Mix-A-Lot himself spoke on the newly updated product and campaign saying, "You can’t name a better duo than Chex Mix and Sir Mix-A-Lot. But something was missing, we needed another hit in the membership, and knew we had to bring back the bagel chip—with a remix."
