This is a clip from Unwrapped on the Food Network detailing how Fruity Pebbles are made at a Post Foods factory. They’re made by cooking and dying regular white rice, then flattening it (seen in the photo above after this stage), toasting it to puff it back up and create its texture, then tossing it with its flavoring, vitamins, and liquid sugar. It’s then dried again, bagged, and boxed. Honestly, after watching the video I can’t help but feel that, just like with hotdogs, I liked it better not knowing how Fruity Pebbles are made.
