Best yellow rice. Please stock again.

We love the Par Excellence Yellow Rice with Saffron. It is quick to cook while salmon is grilling. Please stock it again at Sam's Club. We bought six 3.5 pound jars and have used them all.

Delish!

This rice is so good! It's perfectly seasoned...no need to add anything to it but water and oil. My entire family loves it. I always have 1-2 jugs on hand at all times.

delicious rice

Very aromatic and love the texture. Does not give me sugar crashes surprisingly and keeps me fuller than other types of rice. Love to eat it with meat dishes and seafood. So good! Can’t wait to replenish my supplies.

Not a Fan

Only a fraction of the flavor on the Mahatma brand. Little, if any, saffron. Don't see it on the list of ingredients despite the label saying it's flavored with saffron.

really a GREAT side dish

Bought this while traveling near Tennessee...it was really good and easy to make. I have not been able to find it at any other Sams Club! I hope they will start carrying it in the western states!

Great Rice Yellow Rice with Saffron

Yellow rice with saffron has a delicious flavor, I made a batch big enough to fit in a large crockpot for a party and still didn't use the entire container of uncooked rice. One container makes a huge amount, so the price is a great deal.

Bland Par"Excellence" Yellow Rice

I recently tried ParExcellence Yellow Rice and was disappointed with the lack of flavor. As a huge fan of yellow rice, I was looking forward to trying this new brand, but unfortunately, it did not meet my expectations. The rice lacked the bold and aromatic spices that I'm used to in a good yellow rice. It was bland and unremarkable, leaving me feeling underwhelmed and unsatisfied. Even after adding my own seasonings, it was hard to salvage the dish. To make matters worse, I bought a large quantity of the rice, and now I have 3.5lbs of rice that I don't even like. It's frustrating to have spent money on a product that didn't live up to its promise. Overall, I would not recommend ParExcellence Yellow Rice. While it was easy to prepare, the lack of flavor made it a disappointment for me. If you're a fan of yellow rice and looking for a new brand to try, I suggest looking elsewhere.

I crave this rice

This is the best rice! The sad part it is not available in the Sacramento or Yuba City, CA stores.
