I purchased these after reading the reviews and was very intrigued as to what I was going to receive. What you need to understand is that it is a low calorie alternative to rice therefore it is not going to taste exactly the same as your usual microwavable rice. I have to say, I was shocked by the texture as it is slightly rubbery and I would say that it doesn't taste of much however at only 7 calories a bag it is absolutely perfect to add to a meal instead of your normal stodgy rice. Would definitely suggest ordering one box and trying for yourself. Goes Well With: Salmon, Chicken anything that you would usually have with rice for an evening meal.

I was a bit sceptical about the pouch sizes when they arrived but once I began to add it to my meal I realised it was a good portion as part of a meal. I stir fried the rice in coconut oil with carrots and broccoli served with chicken and it was delicious. It doesn't have a normal texture of rice, slightly more rubbery but absolutely fine. Especially at 7 calories it bulks up meals really well. Give it a try, don't believe horror stories about taste/smell. Goes Well With: Stir fry or sauces

Bought this product and was skeptical, but was pleasantly surprised. Yes, the initial smell is fishy. Yes, the texture is a little rubbery and not so... ricey. However! This product is virtually calorie FREE, compared to the usually high calorie content of rice this product is a good substitute. Of course it isnt going to be just like rice, but once its covered in some sauce and mixed with something (e.g. chilli) there isnt that much of a difference! Not sure i could eat it plain, but this product doesnt deserve to be criticised because its not rice - its still good for so little calories. Goes Well With: Chilli, curry...

Great addition to any meal that's looking to cut the carbs. Goes Well With: I've used mine for stir frys, currys and even added it to soups to be more filling.

Was unsure about this but I preferre these so much over rice now, easy to eat and moist as they come in bags with a little water. Been mixing them with my chicken as a filler and works exactly how I would like it to. Goes Well With: chicken/peri peri sauces etc
