Wow. I just read that the Philippine Islands, which used to export most of the world's rice, now has to import it because of rising fuel costs, declining rice farms, world economy, etc. Rice is the Philippinos' staple food; its lack can lead to widescale social-political riots in the Islands. I too could eat rice on a daily basis. I bought Mahatma and Uncle Ben's brands for years; then I heard about, but can't find, this new Condoleeza Rice. The little woman pours milk onto her rice in a bowl, and eats it that way. Ughh, what a cold, bland way to treat a bowl of the good stuff. Jonka is a yankee.
