I remember in the mid 70s in Scotland when I was about 7 or 8 loving this stuff. I loved Sooty on the box too, so it was a double smash. I think my mum thought it was too sugary or something. Used to look for it when older and never saw it. Bring it back!

It didn't disappear around 1975 because I was born in 1970 and I was still eating this well past the age of 5, until my teens I think. I don't recognize any of the box fronts here... it always used to have a blue hippo on the box, in the UK anyway.

To northern soul: This was my all time favorite cereal. Re: your reference to top of the milk... I always made sure that I got up before my brothers, so that I could pour the top of the gold top, milk on it.

I stopped having breakfast when this was discontinued. My mum could never find a replacement so I never ate cereal for breakfast again.

I was born in 1976 in the UK and I was eating this in the mid 80's so the wikipedia entry saying it was discontinued in 1975 is incorrect. In response to an earlier post... it's true that there was a blue hippo on the packet at the time, I'm just surprised that I can't find any evidence backing this up on line.

Puffa Puffa Rice has not been available (manufactured) in over thirty years maybe closer to 40. That response was ridiculous.

I recently wrote to Kellogg's asking if they would ever bring it back as I loved it as a child and this is what they said: "Thank you for your inquiry about where to buy Kellogg's Puffa Puffa Rice. We're sorry to disappoint you but it looks like that this product is no longer stocked in the major supermarkets and is more than likely set to be discontinued. Further supplies may become available for a limited time in independent shops or discounter stores but at present we don’t have any further information as to where it might be available to buy. Thanks again for contacting Kellogg's." I'm Gutted! :(

'Ono' cereal! Hawaiian for good! Wonderful, light taste of 'caramel' from the cane brown sugar. Not too sweet, just right. I'm a Senior Citizen and still remember this cereal! Heck, I remember commercials for 'Sugar Jets' more than 60 years ago! Sad so many awful cereal out there. Ned to bring back some of the 'golden goodies'! - Lynea, West Linn, Oregon

Face it folks, Kellogg's is not bringing back this cereal. It's nice that it brings back happy memories for many all those years ago. In a bowl - put half plain puffed rice and half Kellogg's smacks or Post Golden Crisp, pour milk and enjoy. That's the closest you'll get to the flavor of this nowadays.

A blast from the past! I just loved Puffa Puffa Rice as a child. My brothers were NOT allowed any. Mum didn't buy it often, but when she did it was all mine. I loved it best with the top (cream) of the milk - you don't get that any more either!

In the UK, I think that they were finally discontinued in about 1985. I know I ate them in the early 1980s although by then they were a rare find in a supermarket. Such is my nostalgia that I have almost perfected a method of making them since Kellogg's refuses to. As you might suspect, they do indeed have an enormous sugar content. The ingredients in order of weight are: rice, granulated sugar, vegetable oil, demerara sugar, salt. In today's health conscious world, I doubt they will make a commercial comeback, so I'll make do with mine homemade ones once a month!

A cornerstone of my childhood menu! In 1982, I found a small box of it in one of those multi-packs as I was passing through London on a trip. It was as delicious as I remembered, and I vowed to buy out all the grocery stores I could find in London on my way back through a week later. However, when I returned there was not a single box to be found. I still think that whatever forces out there that are determined to take away foods that I love spent the 7 days between my two visits clearing all the stores of this cereal, just to spite me. :-)

Isn't the internet wonderful? I've mourned the passing of Puffa Puffa Rice for most of my life and thought I was the only one who felt betrayed by Kellogg's when they discontinued it. Nice to know I'm not the only one. Here's the good news - I also mourned the discontinuance of McCormick's mayonnaise, and now it's BACK. My family can't get enough. Maybe there's hope for Puffa Puffa Rice. Of course, it's been so elevated in my mind over the years that it may not live up to my memory of it. And there's probably all sorts of terrible ingredients in it that my 50-year-old self would never want to eat.

My favorite as a little boy. If it didn't sell well, I would be surprised because it was sublime. I swear there was an animated commercial with the two kids in the Hawaiian canoe but alas, like everything about Puffa Puffa Rice, it seems to have disappeared. Or maybe I just imagined it.

The real taste of early 1970's breakfast! I loved it. Wish they would bring it back. It can't have been any worse than many of today's cereals! The reason there are no E-numbers on today's cereals is that the 'ingredient' is spelt out in full... still the same but just not labeled with an 'E'. Come on Kellogg's! Bring it back!

I think they stopped it in the UK for 2 reasons. 1) It was expensive for a small box back then, so it didn't sell very well; and 2) I think it contained lots of E-numbers so they wouldn't bring it back now anyway. All this healthy eating has killed it and if they did bring it back... I don't think it would actually taste anything like the original. Shame... I loved it.

I am on a mission to Kellogg's every day I email them, so should everyone else for the bring-back of PPR. If enough of us do it, I bet they will too. It won't be quick but sooner or later I believe they will, so come on everyone lets all play a huge part in bringing it back!

I loved this cereal. Where can I buy it in the UK? Is it still being made?

This was my favorite breakfast cereal for both my brother and I. I was brought up in Arizona in the very early 70's, My paternal grandmother bought this cereal for the two of us and we loved it! When it was no longer available, we felt like a part of our childhood had gone away. I would pay any price to have a bowl or two... have searched countless stores in search for this over the years but then the internet gave me the answers I just didn't want to hear. I'd have recommended this to everyone and anyone. It was THAT GOOD! It is very unusual for a product so good to be discontinued... obviously the Kellogg's folks don't try their own products or they would still be selling it!

Still remember it, surprised when I couldn't buy it. Glad to see there's demand for it. Rice Krispies is definitely not the same and can never make up for its loss!

I have been searching for this cereal for years, my Canadian friends sent me some a few years back and it was just as I remembered it. My friends tell me they can't get now either. Bring back PUFFA PUFFA RICE!

This was the best cereal made ever, how could they possibly stop making such a winner beyond me - couldn't be through lack of sales.

I can remember my mum buying me this cereal and I would eat about 3 bowl fulls in a day. By the time the next day came, there would be nothing but dust in the bottom. PLEASE can we have it back.

I've never stopped thinking about Puffa Puffa Rice. Just loved it and used to eat it at any time of the day. I've even told my kids about it and can't imagine why they don't make it anymore. Bring it back!

This is my favorite still after all these years. Adding sugar to plain puff rice is horrible. Please consider bringing it back. Pretty please with Puffa Puffa on it.

This was one I tried to remember for years. As a kid we rarely got the "fancy" cereals - Rice Krispies and Shreddies were the staples as I recall - but every now and then I would taste something (like the Rice Cheerios) and the memory came flooding back. I could picture the cereal but not the name. Colleagues hadn't a clue what I was on about: "Like sugar puffs but made from rice!" They all thought I meant Rice Krispies but they are all TOO YOUNG to remember the true joy that was PPR!

I miss this cereal. Now days, I get some puffed rice - just whatever the store brand is - and sprinkle some brown sugar on top. It's not the same to be sure, but it brings back memories of Puffa Puffa Rice for me.

Yes! I totally remember this one. I think it's funny how they advertised this as like being Hawaiian. I mean... wasn't it just puffed rice. How hard would it have been to add coconut and pineapple flavor and really make it taste Hawaiian? If I had a time machine and knew people from Kellogg's, I'd make it right.

I only remember my last box of PUFFA PUFFA RICE in of all places Hawaii. I was in the Air Force and from there shipped all over the world. When I arrived back home to the mid-west, late '70, Puffa Puffa was gone! Bummer. Told my kids like everyone else. Even tried to make it myself once as a culinary chemistry project but no luck, mine tasted ok but it wasn't PPR.

I remember this cereal as my favorite as a child in the late 60's early 70's. Tried to describe it to my kids and the only thing I can loosely compare it with is 'Swizzel Matlows Rainbow Drops' without the colours and bumps! Really wish Kellogg's would bring back Puffa Puffa Rice just as it was then. PLEASE!
