Not Kosher for Passover
**Not kosher for Passover.**
Rice Krispies contains kitniyot (rice and corn-derived malt flavoring from barley), which Ashkenazi Jews avoid during Passover per longstanding custom to prevent chametz confusion. Even plain versions aren't certified kosher for Passover, and the brand's cereals often include non-Passover oats or other issues. Always check for specific Passover certification (e.g., OU-P).
