Unsalted rice cakes are a simple, versatile snack made primarily from puffed rice grains. With roots in various cuisines, particularly East Asian traditions, these light, airy discs are produced by compressing whole-grain rice under high pressure and heat, retaining some of the nutritional value of rice while offering a convenient and portable option. They are naturally low in calories and fat, making them a popular choice for those seeking a health-conscious snack or a base for spreads and toppings. However, unsalted rice cakes tend to be relatively low in fiber and protein, which may leave you feeling hungry sooner compared to more nutrient-dense snacks. Their lack of added sodium makes them suitable for low-sodium diets, but their high glycemic index could impact blood sugar levels. When paired with nutrient-rich accompaniments like nut butter or avocado, rice cakes can be turned into a more balanced snack.
