“China imports rice”
I believe it. My late wife favored Indian rice from her home country (Basmati and Jasmine), and Costco carries those. My new girlfriend — I don’t know much about her eating habits yet besides mostly Asian — is from the Philippines and may have to make do with American rice some day.
just ask her if she likes sticky rice (glutenous rice):
