Canned Rice? I've never see that here. Of course, I've never looked for it either.

I wonder how that minute rice cooks so thoroughly , being in that bag with holes in it .

You would think the outside rice would be soggy and the inside rice would be not done , but some how it cooks perfectly

You can't beat a home made rice pudding.

That's funny, I would have thought in your part of the world you would be blessed with rice pudding, last time i checked, it comes in the form of a tubular tin/can. Either way, if you haven't looked then that would explain the reason why you've never seen canned rice.

Rice pudding, or as it seems to be called locally pudding rice, can be found in plastic tubs with other puddings and yogurt in the dairy section of most supermarkets in California. If you have a Vallarta (hispanic supermarket chain) nearby with a taqueria inside, you can probably find it freshly made. If your supermarket has a Hispanic Foods section, you might be able to find canned rice pudding.

We primarily eat brown or wild rice in my house. White rice has had it most of its nutrients milled out of it. Wild rice isn't the same as standard rice but is a close relative and native to North America.

If you like rice than you should try Quinoa and Amaranth. Both are native to South and Central America and were staple foods in that region until the settlers came from Europe and changed local diets to wheat and rice. These will most likely be found in the health food aisles of stores but could be found with other dried grains and legumes.

dunno man, but I've tasted many and my GrandMa's for some reason drives me crazy!
