    I’ve never had a rice that smells spicy but doesn’t taste spicy. It’s literally just bland tomato flavored rice.

    I just tried it. While there was nothing wrong with it, I could have more flavor. It has quite a bit of salt which is not so good for you. Perhaps it might be good camping food if you rehydrate it in a skillet with water over a low flame.

    Perfect for quick, late night dinner for our super busy family! Just wish it had better labeling for food allergies. There appears to be some sneaky gluten in here 🥺

    It’s decent but not great. It smells pretty good, though the smell of the spices doesn’t really translate into the same intensity of taste. It somehow tastes bland despite the spices. Maybe just because it’s so mild and it needs something that has at least a little bit of kick? The texture is also a bit soft. The convenience of it means I’m willing to forgive a lot, though. This won’t be my first choice moving forward, but it’s certainly not the worst thing I could pick. It’s on the edible list but not the favorites list.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] To begin with, making this is really simple. It only requires a small slit on one side and two minutes in the microwave to be prepared. It would be incredibly challenging to mess this up. Although it isn't even close to being as cost-effective as purchasing a bag of rice, cooking it, and adding flavor yourself, you'll probably get your money's worth in terms of convenience and reliability. Would purchase again for the convienence .

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The way to my heart is lasagna or Spanish rice and o my goodness this is my number one choice when it comes to store bought Spanish rice. The closest you will get to authentic Spanish rice, unless you stay at a friends house or go to a restaurant
