"Charlotte! Eat your rice, it's good for you!"
"But Mommmmmm....it doesn't taste....you know....good."
"But it's good for you, that's all that matters."

Many of my first exposures to rice as a kid, similar to many unfortunate kids I know, didn't kindle my affection for its abilities and tasty wonderfulness until I was older and learned how wonderful it could be. Like many families with working moms trying to provide the best for their kids we were exposed to the box flavored rice concepts that many could name, but they fell well short of tantalizing my taste buds. Since those unfortunate experiences, my appreciation for rice has grown, as I’ve tasted wonderful new options. It’s something I hope kids far and wide could enjoy, instead of some of the most popular but least enticing options in my opinion.
