Rice cakes?

Hey everyone! Just wondering whether you knew if rice cakes were ok to eat or not? The reason i ask is that my doctor said that popcorn is a big no-no and rice cakes seem similar to popcorn to me!  So lemme know what you all think! Thanks in advance for any advice as i love rice cakes and it would be great to eat them again

I eat them often.  I love the butter toffee flavored ones!  Like a healthy version of Cracker Jack to me!

I am addicted to Quaker Quakes - mini cheddar cheese rice cakes.  Sooooo good!  But popcorn has never been a problem for me and my nutritionist/doctor have no prob with me eating it.

OH CAELI!   I love these too!  And the peanut butter chocolate chip ones!  And the sour cream and onion ones!  LOL...guess I just LOVE them all!  

so, how many of these little rice cakes would you allow yourself to eat at one time? and i guess this would be considered a snack, right?  

I get the regular-sized ones and eat almost a whole one at a time.  I usually can't fini**** but my furkids love them!

OOO Great! I can eat them! Woopie! I cant believe they are only 8 calories per cake! yeay! Thanks you two for replying! Im going to go and buy some tomorrow! Whoop!

Rice cakes are fine! Can't thnik of any reason they would not be, as long as you chew! The Quaker caramel ones are great - only 50 cal each, and great "crunch."  I think the doc he might have meant popcorn with all the goopy oils and stuff. Dry, Air-popped popcorn is an excellent treat -good fiber, and less than 100 cal for 3 whole cups.  Sandy R at goal

Thanks sandy! Thats great news!  I'm a weirdo.. i like the plain rice cakes! hehe!  YAY i'm so excited that i can eat them!  woooooooooooooooooo

The 94% FF Air Popped with a little "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" spray is as good as the artery clogging stuff in the movie.  To spice it up, add a light sprinkle of gratted romano cheese.  They also sell in in individual small single serving bags now.  Just the perfect size.
