They have almost no nutritional value. Are they even good? I don't think so.

For me - NO!!!
I am allergic to rice and they would make me incredibly sick :P0 -
How do you term healthy? I buy organic honey ones that I love! For a crunchy snack they are much better then some processed junk. Don't you malign my rice cakes!0

Care to explain why. Seriously, I am very interested. I am sceptic about many health claims online though so care to explain via some linked peer-reviewed studies why rice is not good for your health?0 -
Healthy is a matter of perspective. Low calorie and lacking in nutritional value is an improvement to people on a high calorie no nutritional value diet. And perhaps a downgrade for people snacking on fruits and veggies, who are in that small percentage. A lot of folks would do well to eat more rice cakes. The calories are minimal, if you like them, eat them.0

@OP: If you don't like the taste, then don't eat it. If you don't find it nutritious and worth the calories, then don't eat it or if you do eat it because of nothing else available and/or you find it yummy, then budget the calories in.
To me personally, everyfood is a nutrition vs. taste thing. I eat veggies, lean meats etc for nutrition. I eat ice cream daily because of taste. To me spending 200 calories daily for something I can easily budget in my calories AND something that keeps me sane and away from binging is worth 200 calories a day. Figure out where rice cakes fit for you!0 -

With a name like Abhishek I am assuming he's Indian so he already knows about rice eating culture. Unfortunately, the internets brocscience got to him too0 -
For me...........it is healthier and safer than a bar of chocolate, as I can stop at one :laugh:
Chocolate chip ones taste awesome when broken up and added to greek yoghurt.0 -
Love my rice cakes ! The caramel minis from Aldi's (70 calories in 8) and topped with 1 Tbs of Nutuella (100 calories) is a super fix for my Chocolate Candy fix. Love the other flavored as well. cheese and ranch.0

WHAT?! I PUT PEANUT BUTTER ALL OVER THAT STUFF IT'S GOOD WHY WOULD YOU EVEN SAY THAT OMG0

Actually melt some dark chocolate & add some sriracha sauce into it, then dip the rick cakes into it & let it go hard. Chilli-chocolate rice cakes....... yummmmmmm0 -
I get wholegrain cheese flavoured ones, top with cream cheese and smoked ham. A little slow release carbs, fat and protein to keep me going so I think they are a good snack!

If it was coming from an American/English/australian I'd be calling 'ignorance'. I'm from Aus and living in Japan and can say YES they eat their rice but they don't eat anywhere near the junk that we do in the West. It's awesome.
Bread is the evil stuff, right?0
