I always bake my Chex Mix in the oven instead of microwave. I added a lot more buffalo sauce to the top of it as it was baking after trying it and not tasting the sauce. And make sure you use Buffalo hot sauce and not regular hot sauce. I didn't have celery seed and used celery salt. It is good as Chex Mix is awesome but it doesn't really taste buffalo-ey? We'll see how it tastes tomorrow after its cooled.

I like this recipe a lot. Over the past couple of years I have changed it to meet my family's taste preferences. They don't care for the celery seed in it. You also want to make sure to use buffalo sauce, and not just hot sauce. I almost double the sauce or you can't really taste it at all.
