I'm disinclined to tell the world when I've done something wrong. I'd rather
keep that to myself.

Perhaps Julie was trying to warn us about Blue Ribbon Rice. At any rate,
rice is so inexpensive I don't worry about buying the rock-bottom cheapest
stuff. Riceland or Mahatma for me.

I've never looked at the price of rice... rice is so cheap who cares
if a brand is 2¢ less a pound. I've been buying Goya rice in 20 pound
bags for years and years and have never noticed the price...
especially since a 20 pound bag lasts us nearly 20 years.

It's not as cheap as it used to be. I've bought a 20 pound bag of rice
twice. They were not worth the savings. I had to repackage to store it and
despite being careful, there was some spillage.

WOW! I use 5lbs up in 6-7 weeks here. Used to be more but we don't
eat as much of it as we used to.

Disagree. Confession, it is said, is good for the soul. We members of
RFC should fess up our wrongs and fee ourselves from the torture of shame.

OK, I'll start. I had a '71 Ford with whitewall tires. I was parking
it and scrapped the whitewall on the curb, marking it.

I feel better already. Relieved of the shame, my day is brighter.

LOL, when I first gassed up my car, I hit the pump, then twice more
trying to get away from it. Really tiny dings though. I was 15....

When have you ever read a post from Julie that she hasn't screwed up a dish, it
doesn't taste right, it didn't cook up correctly, I don't like that, I can't eat that, that
is not available here, we had to wait in line for a year for a table, I can't get my mail?

Riceland and Mahatma works for me, too. Even the stuff from Dollar Tree cooks up
perfect every time.

It's always a whiny, sucky, stupid post.

Actually we have. But you tend to reply as you did to this thread 'why
you can't do whatever' or 'dislike whatever' etc. Pretty frustrating
after a few years to even try.

I merely asked why the difference in cooking the various rices. I never
asked about rice cookers or bread.

If you think the Dollar Tree rice is perfect, you have low standards.

I made Mexican rice last night. It was perfect.

And where did I ever say that I had to wait for a table? I haven't dined out
in almost a year!

My mother-in-law liked the higher class rice. I could never tell the difference between her high class rice and my off-the-rack rice. My wife could.

Some have no difference, some do. One of my little guilty pleasures
was the Justco rice dispensors. They lined the wall near the checkouts
and there was a section that was all local grown. There was some sort
of tax writeoff if you also grew rice so it was common to see little
rice patches in the more rural sections. It might be only a 3m x 3m
plot but often it was more like double that.

It had a name that was translated to me as something like 'wild home
rice' because there was no attempt to keep cross fertilization down
among neighbors. There were often a few chickens running about as well.
For the rice, it would vary in sizes within the same batch with most
being a medium grain. Price was about 1$ a cup for raw but it was fun.

What's "better stuff"? We favor plain, long-grain rice. My husband typically
cooks it with salt and a dab of butter, then eats it with reduced chicken or
turkey stock in lieu of gravy. Jasmine, basmati, or other fragrant rice
would be intrusive to the flavor profile he's looking for.

We use basmati for Indian cooking, though.

You'd be much better off eating Texmati.. real Basmati is grown in
paddys filled with human waste.

You have a point. Avoid Asian produce. They have no standards.

That's hardly true. The Japanese and the Koreans give out fruits as presents. The fruits are the most beautiful and most awesome produce ever. My guess is that the Chinese and other Asians will have something similar.

Texmati is my favorite for Mexican rice, but nobody sells it here any more.
If I buy it online, I usually have to get four jugs. I once got free rice
from Jet when they were in business. I had ordered 4 jugs of white. They
sent 4 jugs of light brown. They let me keep those and sent the white as
well.

Jet is no longer in business. I'm sure I could find it somewhere online.
Just haven't checked. That is one rice I will pay more for.

No it isn't Sheldon, any more than your comments about all Asian rice
being grown that way.

Would it be fun to have a contest on rfc where every time that Sheldon,
a person of Jewish lineage, used a racist slur or wrote anything
demeaning or dehumanizing toward other cultures?
