    Rated 5 out of 5 by from I love this rice! I've been using the original Long Grain and Wild Rice for years and it's basically our family favorite. However, recently our local Kroger and Wal-Mart have taken the boxed variety off the shelf and are only selling the microwaveable Ready Rice. I tried this and it's horrible! The flavor and texture are completely different. I'm now looking for a store where I can get my favorite again. I can't make my favorite chicken dish without it!

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love the Boxed Rice; Hate the "Ready" Rice Please get rid of the "Ready" Rice--the texture & flavor are both terrible. I've thrown away entire meals made with it; it's that bad! Bring back the boxed version because, as your comments here show, THAT'S the one all of us love & miss!

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Makes great "Dirty Rice"! I use this rice flavor to make my favorite dirty rice. Two boxes of original recipe rice and a tube of either regular or spicy Bob Evans sausage is all you need. Cook the two boxes of rice, and while it cooks, brown up the sausage in a fry pan, chopping it into a fine state, about 1/8th to 1/4 inch bits. While the rice is still a little "wet", dump in the cooked sausage and stir to mix. You can drain the fat, but I don't bother because it gives added flavor to the rice. Mix well and cook till Trish but still a little moist. You can buy "Dirty rice" at Popeyes Chicken, but this is much better. Give it a try!

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Absolutely Delicious! I've been using this rice mix for years! I'm not a big rice fan like my husband, but LOVE this mix. However, I no longer can find it in my local food markets, just the quick cook stuff. Now I'm searching online where I can buy it.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from great for recipes I have several great recipes using this product. They don't work with the ready rice which is not as good. People love the stuff I make with the boxed product and I often take it to shut ins.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Don’t Ever Stop Making the Original This is the best rice ever! Whether standalone or in a casserole, nothing else compares. The quicker versions do NOT measure up to the Original, so please, please, please continue it.

    Rated 3 out of 5 by from Used to be Better I am huge fan of Uncle Ben's rice products but I think you have changed the recipe/formula too many times. This rice now cooks too fast and doesn't hold its crispness but being more mushy. I noticed that you can get a better dish if you cut back on the water by 1/4. Also, it lacks the great flavor as before so I had to add additional seasoning to flavor the rice.

    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Absolutely the best Hope that the recipe for this Original Recipe never changes. It is pure perfection. The blend of herbs and spices is spot on, as is the proportion of wild rice to long grain rice. I've been eating this since I was a kid, although my mom made it much less often than I do. The "Fast Cook" version? Not so much. Since I'm not crude, I'll say that fast cook version has a weird chemical taste. Do not like. I will happily continue purchasing the Original Recipe and accept no substitutions.
