Like the previous one, this ended up in the bin. A congealed mess - goodness knows what they put in the packet but it certainly renders it inedible. Would have returned to store and demanded a refund under normal circumstances.

Actually very nice, and like it says, fluffy if no

I don't know what I did wrong, but I'm sorry.

Instructions are contradictory.

A Tesco Customer27th January 2021

I can't find a question and answer option for this product so I am hoping that by posting a review, Tesco will get back to me to resolve the issue. I Haven't opened it yet as I want to use it in a salad. It says on the front of the packet: "Perfectly cooked so it's ready to eat hot or cold". In contradiction, it says on the back: "Important Check food is piping hot throughout before serving". Which of these statements is correct? Can I eat it straight out of the packet as the description implies?

This is great for egg fried rice

Avoid like coronavirus

A Tesco Customer25th January 2021

As a few people here have mentioned, do not buy this packet of rice. I bought in store, so hadn't seen the reviews - but it tastes awful. I don't leave many reviews, but I have gone out of my way during my evening meal to write this review as it tastes that bad.
