Here is the response I got back today from Rice-a-roni:
Ann Marie:
We're sorry you feel Rice A Roni is not a San Franciscan treat.
Rice A Roni was first created in San Francisco as a family treat with the DeDomenico family. While Quaker Oats Company (headquartered in Chicago), bought the DeDomenico family's Golden Grain Company in 1986, Rice A Roni is still a treat that originated in San Francisco. However, we're sorry you were disappointed and we will share your comments with management.

Thank you for your business, Ann Marie, and for sharing your comments with us. We hope you will continue to be a valued loyal consumer. We have mailed a full value coupon, good on any Quaker family product, and it should arrive in about a week.
