Description: Since Rice Krispies Treats are the only thing Rice Krispies has going for it, I'm surprised I've never seen a box of Rice Krispies with marshmallows (there is evidence that Rice Krispies Treats cereal existed at one time, but I missed it). So I decided to make my own! I pilfered some of the marshmallows from Oreo Puffs, and added them to a bowl of Rice Krispies. It's obviously an improvement, but even marshmallows can't mask the plainness of the Rice Krispies.
I thought it would be better with Frosted Krispies as the base, so I tried that, too. It was sweet enough, but I'm not sure it's wise to add marshmallows to a cereal that already has 15g of sugar per cup (by comparison, Lucky Charms has only 12). It doesn't taste quite like Rice Krispies Treats, but then, the Rice Krispies aren't actually coated with marshmallow. I don't like this cereal enough to warrant duplicating this experiment, but I think there's potential here for Kellogg's to tweak the formula. I'd try it if they gave it a shot.
