rice krispy treats?
Favorite Answer
…………….History
Rice Krispie treats were invented in the 1930s by ISU alumna Mildred Day (1904–1996) as a way for a girls’ camp to raise funds. Iowa State University of Science and Technology officially credits the development of Rice Krispies treats to Mildred Day, who died in June 1996 at the age of 92. She worked for the Kellogg Company, the maker of Rice Krispies, and used the cereal to develop the snack as a fundraiser for a Camp Fire Girls group.
[edit] Cereal
Kellogg’s company came out with a cereal based on this treat, perhaps making the first cereal based on a dessert that was based on a cereal. Kellog’s Rice Krispies Treats cereal briefly surged in popularity, and received a 6 out of 7 rating on popular breakfast critic website Mr. Breakfast.[1] Recently this cereal has become harder to find, though a page on the Kellogg’s website can help make finding their rarer cereals easy.[2]
