Topic: The low down on Fake as Fuck Rice manufactured with Plastic and other nasty chemicals
Syntax started this discussion 9 years ago #63,248
A reply in one of the many topix's on Rice says this:"There was a scandal where a small percentage of rice producers were mixing plastic to stretch their profits. This was discovered and they were shut down and punished. It is not like literally all rice in China is plastic. That is a very illogical way of interpreting things."
The Press in the country of China says Otherwise September 20, 2015
China has been producing fake rice for at least four years, and it is still on the market. Singapore media reported that this “rice” is produced with potatoes, sweet potatoes and – believe it or not – poisonous plastic. It is shaped like regular rice grains but remains hard after cooking and can cause serious health issues.
The rice in question China’s Wuchang rice. The rice is very popular because the real Wuchang rice is famous for its smell, and it costs more for its quality (almost double the price), according to Blue Ocean Network (BON) TV report, a popular English Channel in China.
But many consumers still don’t know what they’re getting.
An undercover journalist has found out that in order to make the fake rice, a small amount of real Wuchang rice is mixed with plastic rice, sprayed with a fragrance to replicate the original rice smell, packaged and shipped to stores across China.
It was reported that annually 800,000 tons of real Wuchang rice is produced,
yet 10 million tons of “Wuchang” rice is sold more than 9 million tons of it is fake.
Eating three bowls of this rice is equal to consuming about one plastic bag; it can be dangerous and can cause serious digestive issues, and even be fatal if consumed daily.
Most people in China eat more than a half a pound of rice a day. The distributors have said that selling this rice in large qualities is very profitable, according to Korean Times.

Anyone is free to look at the huge fucking long list of fake food in China. This is because for a large part the Chinese are easy to fool cause especially in areas where mass of Chili Peppers are used to burn out taste buds and cover up rancid meat; Crappy food is what Chinese are used too.
Found this on quick search

moved to Beijing in 2004, I saw a bag of oatmeal at our local grocery store prominently labeled: “NOT POLLUTED!” How funny that this would be a selling point, we thought.
Mass of horrid examples of Fake Crappy Food in China which is tl;dr
2B Fair when the Country of India read about this they have started producing Fake Rice as well. 3rd world Countries looking for that easy buck - Oh India people not so dumb cause their fake rice is Exported to Nigeria.

Still, I wouldn't want to eat plastic in my rice. Amazing that Matt criticizes US fast food so much, but at least it's not fucking plastic? China sounds nasty.

Reminds me of a new favorite Wiki page to add to MC Wiki topic. Next time someone bumps it up with a contribution I will add this new quality Wiki.

They are always looking for the easy buck - Beijing should consider marketing a weight loss program. They have this new invention called Tuberculosis. Reported to work more better than any other way to lose fat.

So, regular rice is fine then. It's just this expensive smelly rice that it is worth adding plastic and potatoes and chemical spray to. Got it, thanks

Ideally it complements foods cooked in sewage remnants.

Time for you to try Jasmine Rice.
Also cook up any white rice (Best if you buy it in USA so you get the real deal) Walk out of the kitchen for about 15 minutes and return. A very distinct aroma. Jasmine Rice has a floral aroma.

wondering if somehow Bojangles 'dirty rice' was somehow inspired by rice from China.
Almost certainly not at all but the name of their dish now brings to mind...for me...the things I have heard recently about Chinese cuisine.
