Uncle Ben's Bistro Express - Vegetable Medley
Mark MacLeod

"The rice that's always ready to enjoy. Now you can have deliciously seasoned long grain rice cooked with peas, carrots and corn in just 90 seconds. This new microwaveable pouch also eliminates prep and clean up."

That pic isn't exactly right, but its basically the same. It's Uncle Ben's and its in the microwavable pack anyway. The real one says Bistro Express though.

I was surprised with this stuff. For some reason, I didn't think microwavable rice would taste very good, but I tried it one day when Lisa had some. i've been buying it ever since.

Final Ruling: Thumbs Up -- Extremely easy and quick to prepare, and it tastes fantastic. Yes, fantastic.
