Rice cakes are a versatile, lightweight snack made primarily from puffed rice compressed into a disc-like shape. Originating from East Asian cuisine but popular worldwide, they are a modern twist on traditional steamed or baked rice offerings. Typically crafted from whole-grain brown rice, rice cakes can be plain or flavored, offering a range of taste profiles while remaining gluten-free and low in calories. They are rich in carbohydrates, making them a quick energy source, but generally lack significant protein, fiber, or fats unless paired with toppings like nut butter or avocado. Their low-fat content and minimal ingredients make them a healthy choice for those seeking simple, low-calorie snacks, though they may not provide long-lasting satiety due to their low nutritional density. Rice cakes can be enjoyed as part of a balanced diet, especially when combined with nutrient-rich additions.
