Rice Krispie Squares are a popular no-bake treat originating from American cuisine, first introduced by Kellogg's in the 1930s. This dessert is made using puffed rice cereal, melted marshmallows, and butter, creating a chewy, crispy texture. While they are a favorite snack for their simplicity and nostalgic appeal, Rice Krispie Squares are primarily a source of quick energy due to their high carbohydrate content. They are low in fat and contain minimal protein or fiber, offering little in terms of sustained satiety or essential nutrients. The high sugar content from marshmallows makes them more of a dessert than a health-conscious choice. However, variations like adding nut butter or seeds can modestly improve their nutritional profile. Enjoy Rice Krispie Squares in moderation as a sweet treat rather than a staple food.
