Tips to Avoid Fake Rice
-
Buy from trusted sources – Choose reputable brands and avoid suspiciously cheap, unbranded rice.
-
Check packaging – Look for proper labeling, expiration dates, and quality certifications.
-
Examine the grains – Real rice has a natural texture and uniform appearance. Unusual shine, odd shapes, or inconsistent coloring could be red flags.
The Bottom Line
While plastic rice is not a widespread issue, staying vigilant helps ensure food safety. If your rice behaves strangely in these tests or has an unnatural smell or texture, it’s best to avoid consuming it. Always purchase rice from reliable suppliers and trust your instincts—when in doubt, choose safety over risk.
