Rice Krinkles
From: Post


Rice Krinkles (full name: Sugar Coated Rice Krinkles) disappeared in 1969, making room for Post's new puffed rice cereal, a fruit-flavored cereal meant to resemble little rocks. Today, you know this descendant of Rice Krinkles as Fruity Pebbles.

The cereal was also sold under the name Sugar Sparkled Rice Krinkles. During that time, the box listed the ingredients as rice, sugar, salt, corn syrup and honey, along with an infusion of iron, niacin and vitamin B1.

Company Description: Founded by C.W. Post, the company began in 1895 in Battle Creek, Michigan under the name Postum Cereals. Their first product was a coffee substitute called Postum. The first breakfast cereal to come from the company was Grape-Nuts in 1897... Read on and see all cereals from Post

So-Hi
So-Hi

While this rice-loving Asian may be politically-incorrect today, So-Hi the Chinese boy was all the rage in the less-judgmental early 1960's when he became the mascot for Rice Krinkles cereal.

Memorable characteristics of this mascot were his high-pitched Chinese accent and a hat which was actually a cute, little bowl of Rice Krinkles.

My childhood favorite cereal. It did have a unique taste. Fruity Pebbles as a replacement? Bleccch.

I wrote to Post recently... same thing... no intentions of bringing it back. Rice Krinkles had a unique flavor they were great. But I wonder if they used something that is not allowed to be used today to sweeten it? They could bring it back as Krinkle Pebbles.

Box was too small (10 oz.). Had to eat as soon as mom brought it home from the store or brothers and sisters would eat it first.

I've been trying to relocate this cereal from my pre teens and teen years. No wonder I can't find it! Please bring back this classic from a simpler time, instead of all this 'trendy' character stuff, like for the Flintstones etc.

My favorite cereal. They are NOT the same as the frosted rice cereal today. PLEASE BRING THEM BACK!

My grandfather says he used to eat this cereal. He said it tasted like Rice Krispies, except frosted. So it was basically Post's clone of Frosted Krispies.

I loved Rice Krinkles. They had a unique taste that no other cereal has ever quite matched. I wish Post would bring them back, even if only on a temporary basis.
