Please bring back my favorite cereal of all time. Want non-sugared breakfast - puffed rice. Need a midnight snack - butter browned puffed rice. Candy for grandkids - puffed rice bars. It's the cereal that gets me off the hook with the diabetic and heart doctors. In 70 years, I still can find no substitute. PLEASE BRING PUFFED RICE BACK!

Please bring back Puffed Rice Cereal. At Christmas, I am the fourth generation to make Puffed Rice Candy. Holidays just aren't the same without Puffed Rice Candy.

Puffed rice cereal is the only cereal I can eat as a snack. I am allergic to the wheat cereals and I'm diabetic so the sugar cereals are out as well. BRING BACK THE PUFFED RICE.

I just chatted with Quaker today too and expressed my dismay at the loss of Puffed Rice. I was told that my comments could be forwarded to Marketing but that they could give no indication that the cereal will be reinstated. Sad.

Bring back the PUFFED RICE! It's my favorite cold cereal and dry snack! I've been eating it for over 60 years. Who made this dumb decision and why? It's also comfort food when you are feeling sick. Quaker is the only brand that I liked. Donna.

So hard to find. What's going on? It was always in our house through the 70's and and the 80's. It was good as cereal with milk and sugar. Also good as a snack with melted butter drizzled over it.

I always liked Puffed Rice and I still have an Adirondack chair my long gone Dad made from plans they offered in the 60's. Loved the 1812 Overture theme used as "The Cereal That is Shot From Guns". I see a Puffed Brown Rice in Bags, but not to my liking. Bring back something simple. Not all foods now days have to be Gilded Lilies.

Where in Largo or Clearwater Florida can I buy Puffed Rice? My favorite grocery said the warehouse isn't stocking it so it is not being delivered. They have plenty of that 'tiny pieces-of wheat-hulls-come-off-and-choke-you' as you try to eat the Puffed Wheat, but none of the good stuff-Puffed Rice!

My mother has eaten this every day for 50 or 60 years. And now she can't find it anywhere! This was a great cereal! Small and soft... made it great for people with dental issues. Children didn't choke on it and many picky eaters could be swayed by its mild flavor. Not coated with sugar a bonus! Come on Quaker... it is worth your while! There are enough of us here complaining?!

PLEASE! Bring back the original Puffed Rice! Not all of us are into the sugary excesses offered on the store shelves. I was happy to find the large biscuit version of Shredded Wheat that I grew up on and stock up on it for my 87 year old mother, and would like to be able to get her the Puffed Rice also.

No, I can't find this wonderful, easy-to-eat cereal anywhere. Now that I'm older and could eat and enjoy Puffed Rice daily, it's not anywhere to be found. More the pity, I guess it's pablum. What a poor alternative. I will really miss it. If you change your mind and put it back on the selves, let a poor old gal know. Who knows it might help me live longer.

What did they do to the puffed rice recipe? I purchased 3 boxes yesterday and was horrified at the texture and flavor. I have been eating puffed rice since I was a kid and am 66 years old. The 3 boxes I recently purchased do not taste at all like the puffed rice I know and love... and the box was filled with powder. Now, I am used to some powder being on the bottom of the box as it is on all cereals, but this was awful. I threw the box away. I did notice the box changed. It is all red now instead of red and blue but the contents was just awful. What did they do to the recipe?!

Got to tour the Akron, Ohio Quaker Oats plant when I was very young. The 'shot from guns' process involved a large tank, under pressure, and steam. It did make one hell of a noise. Then they gave us a sample right out of the tank. It was an elementary school tour.
