    I cut the normail cereal mix (chex, pretzels, Cheerios) with air popped popcorn and whole wheat squares (for the life of me I can't think of the brand name, but its the plain 100% whole wheat gross tasting ones) I also add nuts. Not much will fix the butter issue but I use real butter not margarine as I feel real food is better. When I count it I consider it the same as eating nuts so I only have 1/2cup or so.

    Using butter, brown sugar and cinnamon instead of spices is super yummy too although I wouldn't call it healthy
