Rice Krispies Cereal from Japan
Rice Krispies Cereal is a puffed rice product obtained by swelling rice grains through heat and pressure, creating the signature snap, crackle, and pop texture. The rice is prepared by swelling and roasting, going beyond the processing of Chapter 10, and is not excluded by the chapter notes. This product falls under tariff item 1904.90.29 only if it contains 25% or more wheat; otherwise, it belongs under a different 'other' prepared cereal item.
