𩺠HEART Exam: Drizzilicious Mini Rice Cakes (Sāmores, Cinnamon Swirl, & Very Berry)
Todayās exam is a little unusualāno stethoscopes, no blood pressuresājust a snack lineup that feels like triplets: Drizzilicious Mini Rice Cakes in Sāmores Bites, Cinnamon Swirl Bites, and Very Berry Bites.
š H = Health
All three flavors are:
⨠Non-GMO
⨠Certified Gluten-Free
⨠Vegan
⨠Allergen-friendly (peanut & tree nut plant free)
⨠Pareve
Letās break down the nutrition per serving:
Sāmores & Cinnamon Swirl: ~120 calories for 28 bites, 4g fat, 21g carbs, 1g protein.
Very Berry: 90 calories for 21 bites, 3g fat, 15g carbs, 1g protein.
Iāll be honestāI didnāt buy these because theyāre health food heroes. I bought them because theyāre my little dopamine treats š§ āØ. Still, I like that theyāre free from the big allergens and made with decent ingredients.

š“ E = Eating
Sāmores & Cinnamon Swirl = Just as dreamy as I remembered. Sweet, crunchy, and melt-in-your-mouth good. These are the snack equivalent of āIāll just have oneā ⦠and then half the bag is gone.
Very Berry = New to me! Itās tasty, fruity, and light. But if weāre ranking, Sāmores and Cinnamon still win my snack heart.
š A = Accessibility
I picked these up at Jewel for $4.49 per 4oz bag (on sale!). I used to score the variety packs at Costco (mini bags were perfect for portion control), but sadly havenāt seen them there lately š¢. Iām guessing Costco was cheaper per ounce, but I donāt have my receipt for proof. Find where they are available near you at https://drizzilicious.com/
𩺠R = Rating
Sāmores ā Tachycardia ā¤ļøš„
Cinnamon Swirl ā Tachycardia ā¤ļøš„
Very Berry ā Sinus Rhythm ā¤ļø
Why not Bradycardia for Very Berry? Because Iād still buy it againāitās just not my first choice.
š£ļø T = Tell Others
My mom already knows about these (sheās a Costco snacker too šš»āāļø). Since the Berry flavor wasnāt in the Costco pack, Iāll definitely tell her to try it.
Final Thoughts
Drizzilicious Mini Rice Cakes are fun, crunchy, sweet snacks that I keep in rotation occasionallyābut not too often (because Iāve been known to eat way too many in one sitting š ).
