I have no idea who this man was driving a car that advertised Heinz Rice Flakes.
Pictures available online of Rice Flakes suggest they could have been a forerunner of Rice Krispies. "Snap, Crackle, and Pop!" probably was a more effective slogan than "Cereal with a vegetable effect." No plastic prizes in that box, that's for sure.

What an interesting post about a cereal...or perhaps about a car? I did grow up on Rice Crispies, and am sadly vulnerable enough to have listened to hear if they popped.
ReplyDeleteWe've been watching a series on the History Channel about food and how it was "created". We have seen episodes about cereal, chocolate, and hamburgers - fascinating!
