What is the history of rice cakes?
The first rice cakes were developed in Southeast Asia where rice has been grown for nearly 5,000 years. Rice cakes took off just as the mid-80s health craze began sweeping the nation. Suddenly, there was a huge demand for sensible snacks. Since the first plain rice cakes hit the market, manufacturers have launched a whole new era in rice cakes and rice snacks with flavors like caramel corn, cheddar cheese, and apple cinnamon.
