2. In large mixing bowl mix together cereal, pecans, nuts, pretzels and cheese crackers. Set aside.
3. In a medium size saucepan melt the butter over medium low heat, stir in corn syrup and brown sugar. Cook mixture for 5 minutes, stirring continuously. Take off heat after 5 minutes and stir in baking soda and cream of tartar.
