Chex Green Onion Flavor is a limited edition released after an incident in 2004 when there was an online vote between Chex Chocolate Flavor and Green Onion Flavor, which has been frequently mentioned online.


At that time, Nongshim Kellogg's promoted Chex with a presidential election concept, featuring the existing chocolate flavor 'Cheki' and green onion flavor 'Chaka' in an event.


Some online community users, for fun, gave all their votes to Chaka, electing 'Chaka.' In response, Kellogg's declared the vote abnormal and selected 'Cheki' as president.


However, netizens later raised suspicions of election fraud and demanded the release of the green onion flavor Chex.



Although green onion flavor seemed completely unsuitable for cereal, its actual release sparked a buzz among netizens, who are also curious about the tasting impressions.
