Fast and easy to make stovetop

We really enjoy the Minute Rice. We use it for many dishes in our house and it's quick and easy to make on the stove top. The size and pricing is attractive, and we can get buy on a box for quite a bit. The only improvement that I'd like to see is a more "resealable" packaging option, as once it's open, you need to probably find another container to store the rest of it in, which is a bit disappointing. I'd love to have a small screw-top or similar on the packaging so it was more convenient to store in the original box.

Great item! Best prices (:

I was first introduced to minute rice from a friend literally a few years ago and I’m almost 30. I had no idea such a thing existed and in typical grocery stores these boxes are quite expensive. Sam’s has the best price if you enjoy eating lots of rice, love this purchase. Definitely makes quick dinners a lot easier or if I’m trying to make a quicker lunch etc.

Crockpot Magic!

This was a staple when living alone but fell to the wayside when I got a rice cooker. I recently found a greater way of preparing Minute Rice other than stove top cooking. Minute Rice cooks perfectly in crockpot casseroles - chicken divan, broccoli and cheese, burrito bowls and paella. It cooks in 30-40 minutes and absorbs all the flavors without constant attention or baking all day. We had enough rice for 6 crockpots! This is by far the best brand of instant rice.

Tasty rice in just a couple minutes!

Who doesn't like easy rice? Whether it's for stir fry, a receptacle for a gravy-filled meal or just alone with your entree, Minute rice is tasty! It doesn't stick to itself like most steamed rice and is ready in just 5 minutes once added to boiling water! My kids love plain rice with milk and sugar like oatmeal! Minute rice was what my family first learned to make on the stove! Add a bullion cube for rice to add to Boeuf Borguignone or Stir fry or even Fajitas or more! Minute rice is great for working families who need something quick and tasty in under 10 minutes! Minute rice is the best brand for quick cooking rice in a minute (or so!)!

I can't believe it had rice hulls in it.

I was very disappointed in this product. I bought two boxes and both had inedible pieces of rice hulls in it, making the product dangerous to consume considering pieces of rice hull can cause stomach and intestinal perforations. I'm sorry, but I don't want to have to spread my rice out on a flat surface and meticulously have to sift through hundreds of grains of rice to remove pieces of rice hull just to make it safe to consume.

Rice is rice, but only 80% arrived undamaged.

The rice is fine, nothing spectacular, good or bad. Packaging was very sub-par. 720 oz (10 72oz boxes) put all into one flimsy box. Packing box broke open on FedEx driver, and two of the boxes of rice split down the side. 80% of our order arrived ok, but that's not a great percentage to strive for.

BAD PACKAGING

THEIR WAS AN EMPTY SPACE OF 2-TO 2 1/2 IN THE TOP OF THE BOX. IT WAS NOT FILLED UP. THE BEST USE DATE WAS UNREADABLE OCT 2022 OR 2023. THE BOX WAS TAPED SHUT AT THE TOP, MAYBE IT OPENED? OR WAS PACKAGED FOR TRANSIT THAT WAY. I BOUGHT TWO BOXES, HAD NO COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE FIRST, JUST THE SECOND BOX.

Quick and Easy

My kids love this stuff. While I am more of a traditionalist when it comes to cooking rice, sometimes you just don't have the time to wait. Minute rice is perfect for these situations. My kids love it for breakfast or as a side dish with a meal. And since it just takes a few minutes to cook, it's always a perfect option.

Rice + heavy items don’t ship well together

Rice is fine. Shipping the rice with anything heavy is not fine. It makes the rice come out of the crevices of the box and pour into the shipping box. Not edible rice after that. So if buying peanut butter or spaghetti sauce, for instance, not a good time to buy the rice.

Overpriced & overrated instant rice

It’s good but nothing way too special than the underrated instant rice out there. Seems we pay for brands and no longer for amounts nor quantity. Brand isn’t equal to quality nor brands mean full satisfaction if there’s tiny to no difference in quality compared to other underrated and unknown/unpopular brands. Simply overpriced for the amount of product you get.
