crispies

Puffed rice cereal

Crispies are small, crunchy pieces—typically of food.

The word often appears in product names for breakfast cereals made of puffed rice or corn: Rice Crispies, Cocoa Crispies.

In casual use, crispies can describe any crispy bits: the crispies at the bottom of the french fry bag, cheese crispies left in the pan.
