Or this stuff..........better to eat styrofoam balls......
Unfortunately, because of Algore's using styrofoam to fake crumbling glaciers in his movie there is also a styrofoam shortage.
That's what we buy, Mahatma. To me it's the best.
LOL!
Dang. I’ve got a large bag of Food Lion store brand long grain rice in my pantry ... am I hopelessly outré? And here I’ve been thinking it was pretty good, boiled up with some red curry or chicken broth, lol.
Yes.
Now, go directly to Piggly Wiggly for quality rice.
We no longer have Piggly Wiggly in this part of NC, or I would. I miss seeing their store circulars, advertising ten pound buckets of chitlins on sale, lol.
We don't have them here anymore either, at least in my part of La.
Who is Styrofoam and why would you rather eat his balls? ... hey its Friday
And the next financial bubble to burst will be the commodities bubble.
The rice shortage is self-correcting. Poor people are eating more rice because they cant afford meat and process foods like noodles. As they shift to a basic diet heavy in rice, the supply of the more expensive foods will go up due to lack of demand. As people start eating more meat and less rice, the price of rice will come down.
The problem is oil, not rice and artificial shortages of food grains created by the Greenies. The oil shortage itself is artificial and is also the Greenies fault.

Market went south in California so she got in the Wedding Planning business?
I think both are crops that are not seasonal, nor needs rotation.
At least in Japan you will see very square inch of ground that isn't being used for housing used as a rice paddy. I did see, however, more soybean fields recently in Japan.
Its an election year. Just like last election year, the meme is that the economy is in the tank. There are food riots. In Bangla Desh, or somewhere, not here, but there are food riots somewhere, so in journo-propaganda-world, that counts.
Oh, and even in the United States, there is food rationing. Food rationing? I hadn’t noticed, I somehow manage to be at the grocery store half a dozen times a week and didn’t notice we were rationing food. Rice? I’m limited to no more than a hundred pounds? You’re kidding, right? I don’t think I’ve ever bought anything more than a 5 pound bag at one time, so a hundred pound limit doesn’t really strike me as catastrophic.
But, as I say, its election season. So, in bizarro-propaganda world, it counts. Food riots and rationing.
Wow, I can’t decide between the miscellaneous germs or the pig livings bowel or the cowboy meat.
I can’t believe I am still the only one who picked up on and commented on the fact that this lady did a 400 mile round trip to buy rice!
