JoLe: This is ok basmati rice for prepackaged prepared rice, better than several other brands that I’ve tried. The problem is, none of the prepared versions hold a candle to making basmati rice fresh from dry. Just doesn’t have that subtle, delicious flavor and aroma that this variety of rice provides. The big advantage, of course, is that you can prep the packaged rice in 90 seconds, so you’re not SOL when you finish making dinner and then realize you forgot the rice!

Robin Alwine: This is the best of the "ready rice" bunch, in my opinion. Nice quantity, great scent and flavor, in just 2 minutes from the microwave. The rice comes out nicely separated into individual grains, too, and it's a nice size for two healthy servings or 4 smaller side helpings. we're just two of us and almost always have some left over.
My only reduction comes from the package sometimes being just too hard to open - like the factory put on too much glue on the bowl or something. Then, I have to slip a knife through it and drag it through enough the get a grip on the hot bowl. Still, these are so good, I get them every month via Subscribe and Save.
This is NOT the sticky rice - it's a regular, long-grain rice that smells amazing and tastes just that good.

P2 Avid Reader: I bought this when I was down with a tummy bug and just did not feel like getting out my rice cooker to make up a batch of rice. These are GREAT!! I would just poke holes in the top, zap them for 2 minutes in the microwave, and ta da all ready to go.
If you do not fluff it with a fork after cooking, I think it is firm enough to use with chop sticks. It is NOT sticky rice. Very nice pleasant flavor. I eat with a touch of Italian White Wine Vinegar that I purchase here on Amazon.
Mine came in a cardboard box with I believe 6 in it. It has punch-out edge and can just put it on cabinet shelf for easy storage to grab and use.
*** Cost -- most expensive than using "regular dry rice" but great for lunches or even backpacking meals
*** Flavor -- great!! Loved it -- very consistent quality.
*** Storage -- surprisingly can just have it on your shelf, ready to heat in 2 minutes!!
I will purchase this again. Recommended. Great for kids for after school, or fast microwave side dish (serves 2 as side or one large bowl.)

arkansan: Love, love, love this. I am on my second box already. I don't even use my microwave. I have my stir-fry pan hot, add chopped onion, seasoned with some salt, pepper, and garlic powder, cook till more translucent then next add my rice. I can smash it apart and break it down easily with my hands or back of a deep-fry spatula strainer utensil, pressing down. I add more of same seasonings and keep stirring. I then add a little chicken broth, low-sodium soy sauce, and a bit of oyster sauce with a few drops of this yellow liquid Chinese coloring and mix well, cooking a bit longer. After that I remove to a serving bowl. I add a tab of butter into my hot pan, not wiped out, and pour my well-beaten eggs seasoned with same seasonings of salt, pepper, and garlic powder. My soy sauce has less salt so it balances out well. Spread eggs out thin in the pan until almost done then using spatula, cut into small pieces and add to your rice. Stir together. You can add chicken or other meats diced or veggies like broccoli, frozen peas, carrots, green beans, water chestnuts etc. Enjoy!! I will be buying more of this rice. Is fast, convenient, tastes great, and is decently priced.
