About Cereals ready-to-eat, rice, puffed, fortified
Puffed rice is about as light as cereal gets — whole grains of rice heated until they expand into crisp, airy puffs. It barely weighs anything in the bowl, which makes the per-100-gram figures a little misleading: a normal serving is only a small handful by weight.
Made from refined rice, it is low in fiber and protein on its own, so this version is fortified to add back iron and B vitamins. The per-100-gram energy reads high at roughly 402 calories, but because the cereal is so feather-light, an actual portion delivers far fewer. It digests quickly and tastes very mild, a near-blank canvas.
Plain puffed rice is a gentle, low-fuss breakfast, though it pays to add fiber and substance — fruit, nuts or a higher-fiber cereal alongside — to keep it from feeling insubstantial.
