brown rice
i usually buy my brown rice in this big plastic tub. it is organic and it costs a bit more than the usual suspects but i've always enjoyed the taste, texture and flavor.
well... the other day i was at the grocery and, since i'm trying SO hard to stick to a budget (as well as my diet!), i bought the uncle ben's brown rice. rice is rice, right?
NOPE!
i have to say that i was shocked and amazed (and not in a good way!) at the difference a couple of bucks can make. who knew that two products called the exact thing could be so different?
well, i just wanted to share that with my fellow fat smashers, especially those who aren't a fan of the brown rice.
and, for what its worth, i cook mine with chicken bouillon and basil and sprinkle it with some lemon juice before serving. mmmm mmmm good!!!
