Nevermind the mediocre taste, the smell is so intensely horrible I had to throw out the remaining rice that I had meant to store. I suppose it was the garlic? This was not expired- actually a year until then, but I did microwave it so maybe a skillet would work better? Anyways, I would strongly recommend not buying this pre-cooked rice product thing.

We loved the quinoa brown rice and garlic. It was delicious. I prepared it with peas and bone broth in a skillet. I will definitely enjoy this quinoa and try other Seeds of Change product. I read Seeds of Change has a great mission to feed the less fortunate .. what a great company.

I’ve been eating this product for years and it’s been very good. Unfortunately, something has changed. It just doesn’t have the same taste or flavor. I would also wish they would cut the sunflower oil out completely.
Garlic flavor is too strong

This flavor tastes very strange, tbh. I tried to use it as a base for Chinese style stir fry and the fake garlic flavor was extremely overpowering. I couldn't stand eating other flavors like teriyaki or cilantro in combination with it. It should probably taste okay when served alongside Western type dishes or dishes without sweet flavors. I think personally that the heavy garlic flavor is unnecessary. As for how to prepare it, I know you can cook it in the microwave (I don't like cooking with the microwave myself) but I just put it in my regular rice cooker with a bit more water than the package recommends and it cooked well that way.
Tasty product, but leverages people's ignorance

I have no problem with the quality of the product; it's actually quite good. I do however take issue with the "NON GMO Project VERIFIED" graphic on the package. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS GMO RICE. Or quinoa for that matter. But Seeds of Change (i.e., YOU) are paying a fee to use that graphic. Of course, Seeds of Change isn't alone; the non-gmo label can be found on lots of things where a GMO option doesn't exist; tomatoes, popcorn, and even salt (?!!) BTW - "Organic" likely doesn't mean what most people think it does, either. Organic foods are NOT pesticide-free, or healthier. Organic farming is a marketing ploy that exploits the appeal to nature fallacy.
Yummy! But is it healthy?

Brown rice and quinoa both contain levels of arsenic, which is obviously very bad for health. Alas, this is true for organic rice, too. After doing research, I have learned that the lowest arsenic levels can be found in both white and brown rice from California, India, Pakistan, and sushi rice from US. Avoid rice from Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas. Seeds of Change is based in Chicago, but the consumer doesn't know where they are sourcing their grains from. It is yummy, and convenient. I take it out of the packet, and it heats up in the microwave quickly. White rice, of course, spikes blood sugar, yet has less arsenic. So what to do? Apparently cooking from scratch and rinsing a lot helps lower the arsenic level; the arsenic is in the hull of the brown rice. But what if we want both convenience combined with healthy nutrition? I don't want to give up the convenience, so I will likely eat very small amounts at any one time: about 1/4 cup, no more than once a week.
Delicious 😋

But it tastes very good though!

I won't give the product 5⭐️ because you have to cook it for 6-8 minutes - not for the 90 seconds they say. But it tastes very good though!
Organic rice and quinoa mix: healthy and tasty

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently tried this organic rice and quinoa mix and I'm really happy with it. It's a great size for two people and has a nice garlic flavor. The mix is not too high in calories, which I appreciate. I found that it pairs well with a lot of different meals, making it a versatile choice for my kitchen. Each pack is just right for one meal, so there's no waste. I like that it's a healthier side dish option. It's full of natural proteins, which is great for my diet. The best part is that it's organic, so I feel good about eating it. It's nice to have a quick and easy option that is also good for me.

We just bought 2 packets and tried one out. It smelt like fermented food and was hardly palatable. I had to throw it away. Maybe just a bad packet but it was disappointing.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Seeds Of Change has come out with a great product. Organic Quinoa and Brown Rice with Garlic. All you need is to heat in the microwave 90 seconds then done. Add this to any meal that you prepare. Absolutely delicious.
Delicious!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was such a delicious side dish! It was so quick and convenient to make. You would never guess that it is a microwaveable meal! I really love that it is organic and made with high quality ingredients. That is also not very typical for microwaved meals. I highly recommend the garlic quinoa and brown rice—does not disappoint!
surprisingly good and healthy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This exceeded my expectations! I had low expectations since it's rice in a bag. I did the microwave instructions and it worked! Soft and fluffy rice! The ingredients are also legit - no weird stuff. Definitely recommend for a quick meal!
