I just purchased several packages of "Uncle Ben's" and "Rice a Roni" rice.  They come in microwaveable packages. You tear them open, heat up in 60 seconds.  They tasted almost the same as  regular rice.  Very tastey,firm.  I found them 10/$10.00.  These would make geat items for long term storage with limited space,i.e. car and bug out bags,plastic containers.  They come in numerous flavors..or white to make that "spam" a little better!LOL

I bought a few packages of Zatarain's rice that has sausage included.  My hubby loves rice so I thought that would be a nice treat for him.  He is mad that I won't let him eat it now.  Ha Ha

When they first came out the rice packs were $1 and I stocked up. Now they're at least 25 cents more and never seem to go on sale here. They're so convenient that my supply has almost disappeared. BTW I tried a pack of Comet brand plain rice and didn't think it was as good as the other brands. It had a hard consistency like it wasn't fully cooked.

The dollar tree has a ready rice in four flavors for $1.  A week or so they were .25.  They do taste great and I purchased several dollars worth.

Whats the shelf life like...It seems to me the rice is already cooked.  Is'nt it.  How can it have a long life shelf?
 
Thanks

Gretchen,
 
Would it be possible to post the name of the Zatarain.  I tried to find it with the sausage, but was not able to.  I would appreciate it.
 
Thanks.
