Overall Rating: 2/5
Summary: no, nah, nope...I wouldn't buy this again. It is missing the full aroma of fresh jasmine rice. It's also missing the full flavour. It tastes stale and it's totally worth it to just cook your own jasmine rice from scratch. The only thing that salvaged this was my decision to add raisins, slivered almonds, and a bit of butter. I heated this on the stove and needed more water than suggested in the instructions. All in all, I definitely wouldn't recommend this product.
Where to buy: most grocery stores

The ingredients are very nice and simple, but it just doesn't cut it in terms of flavour and aroma. The nutritional profile is good, with a solid 5g of protein and low-fat.
