Glad to see that there are others here who like rice cakes, though I'm only one in my family who does so.
When I was a kid my grandmother lived with us. One day her sister was visiting and saw my grandmother drinking grapefruit juice. She said, "I've never known you to like grapefruit juice. When did this start?" My grandmother replied that she'd bought some a few years ago when it was on special and none of the family liked it.
Her sister said, "I don't understand. If nobody likes it, why are you buying it?"
Grandma said slowly - as if talking to a rather slow-witted human (which, in all fairness, her sister often was), "I buy it because nobody else will drink it."
Like Grandma and her grapefruit juice, I first developed an affection for rice cakes less because of their taste and more because nobody else in my family liked them. Even when my kids were ravenous teens I could count on rice cakes being in the pantry when I wanted them. They might not have been my first choice, but they sure beat licking peanut butter off my hand. (My dogs might disagree, but let's leave them out of this.)

I just bought three lbs at a farmer’s market.
I'll trade this 10 lb watermelon, and throw in a half lb of roasted pecan halves for one of those lbs.
(got sick on both)

I love chocolate.
The best chocolate snack is a spoonful of Aldi's brand of chocolate hazelnut spread.
It's made in Germany and the label says not to refrigerate [not spreadable when cold.]
But I prefer it cold when I eat a spoonful right out of the jar. Locally, it costs $2 a jar,
cheaper than Nutella and I like it better.

I had forgotten about rice cakes. I used to spread them with peanut butter and honey for a snack. Need to buy some again!
