Snap! Crackle! Pop!


Rice Krispies!

Are you singing the jingle in your head, too? Every time I pour a bowl, I hear the Snap, Crackle and Pop elves of my childhood singing their tune.

Now, that's the power of advertising!

I had a bowl this morning and was curious to see where my favourite threesome are today. I found this site where you can learn about the history of Snap, Crackle and Pop and take a look at the Rice Kripies boxes of yesteryear. A Rice Krispies museum, if you will.

Wanna learn how others say "Snap! Crackle! Pop!"? Check it out:
  • French Canadian: "Cric! Crac! Croc!"
  • Spanish: "Pim! Pum! Pam!"
  • German: "Knisper! Knasper! Knusper!"
  • Danish: "Piff! Paff! Puff!"
  • Finnish: “Riks! Raks! Poks!”
  • Dutch: "Pif! Paf! Pof!"
  • Afrikaans: "Knap! Knaetter! Knak!"
Is your childhood calling?
