How bad are those rice pouches?

We get Seeds of Change - it's great.

I love them. They are really good and so quick. Great for teens to make themselves.

People are so lazy now, when it comes to food and cooking. It’s as if any effort at all is just too much. How hard it is it put rice and water in a pot and boil?

Seems like most rice cookers are coated with non-stick something or another, which seems as bad as plastic. Does anyone have a link to a non-toxic rice cooker?

Yes. It’s called a stainless steel pot, with a lid.

If you are worried, you can make a big pot of rice and freeze it in smaller portions to reheat as needed.

I am all about convenience and will take it just about anywhere that I can get it.

But I just don't like the taste of the rice out of those things. I don't know if I'm tasting the plastic of the bag or what.

I avoid those because of the sodium. Dd has low kidney function so I try to use recipes for which I can control the sodium as much as possible. I’ve started using the same cooking method for rice as for pasta. It’s super easy.

East Asian. I just can’t. It’s like when Asian people put mayonnaise on bread and call it pizza.

I’ve done this with brown rice and it actually works way better. White rice turns out well too?

I have a simple, smallish rice cooker. It’s at least 25 years old. I throw in rice and water, eyeball the amounts, and flip the switch. The rice is ready in 10-15 minutes. I highly recommend it.

I have a rice cooker but love microwable rice when I only want a small portion. My favorite is Veetee brand.
