About SWEETENED RICE CEREAL
Fruity Pebbles is puffed rice coated in sugar and hydrogenated coconut and palm kernel oils, colored with five synthetic dyes and flavored artificially. There are no whole grains, no fiber, and almost no protein. The hydrogenated oils provide the crispy-to-milk-soaked texture transition the cereal is known for. BHA preserves flavor. Vitamin fortification adds nutrients back after the fact. This is one of the most stripped-down cereals on the market in terms of nutritional substance, essentially flavored and colored sugared rice. The appeal is entirely about taste and nostalgia, which is honest enough.
