    I hear these are good for growing mushrooms.

  • These are for 1.75 each at woolies this week, so grab whatever you could get

    • ….but these are only 66 cents each

      • What I meant was a single pack is on half price special this week for 1.75$

  • Most of it is now OOS. Light coconut flavour OOS too.

  • Not great but good for camping meals

      Good for stashing in the office as well if you don't have any leftover rice to go with lunch.

      Definitely not good for camping!
      Much better to just bring some rice and cook it in a pot and eat it with soy sauce.

        Depends on the situation. Water is limited when camping remotely, so I try to avoid pasta and rice as they’re too water intensive compared to alternatives

      • Boiling rice in a breeze is frustrating and now you have a pot to wash up. I'll just have a beer and some Uncle Ben's rice

      It is great. They are a little oily, I'm guessing it's required for the preservation and cooking, but they taste good imo. Might want to fry and chop up an egg to mix in tho.

      Rice + black people = racism

        What about jungle rice.

        Bit precious if they can't leave a traditional picture up, everything is too PC these days.

        Dan Murphy and Bob Jane are monochrome logos but no doubt they are white.

      In the aftermath of the murder of George Floyd, Mars, Inc. announced on June 17, 2020, that it would be "evolving" the brand's identity, including the logo. (…) As advertised on September 23, 2020, Mars Inc. replaced the "Uncle Ben's" name with "Ben's Original", with the new packaging becoming widely available in the United States from about June 2021.
