Rice Krispies-lovers have long complained that the taste of this much-loved cereal has changed, but are now rejoicing after it was announced that the original recipe will be back on a shelf near you. Produced by Kelloggs, the company replaced the original recipe with Vanilla Rice Krispies that contained double the amount of sugar approximately two years ago.

Locals are happy to have them back. Here is what they have to say:
