A healthy, plant-based product. Convenient, quick and cheaper than the same product sold in Sainsbury's. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Very Small portions of tasty rice *by A***B on 3 November 2025* A typical portion of cooked rice is 150g so for two that's 300g hence at 220g this is a shrinkflation individual portion size of 110g. It tastes good and cooks quickly but let's not pretend there is enough for two people in the packet !! Hence I give it 3 stars. ## Frequently Bought Together - BEN'S ORIGINAL Wholegrain Brown Spicy Mexican Microwave Rice, Bulk Multipack 6 x 220g pouches - BEN'S ORIGINAL Wholegrain Brown Golden Vegetables Microwave Rice, Bulk Multipack 6 x 220g pouches - BEN'S ORIGINAL Savoury Chicken Microwave Rice, Bulk Multipack 6 x 220g pouches --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/538549236-wholegrain-brown-spicy-mexican-microwave-rice-bulk-multipack-6-x](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/538549236-wholegrain-brown-spicy-mexican-microwave-rice-bulk-multipack-6-x) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-08-20*
