Best rice EVER, March 5, 2006 - 01:29 PM
Reviewer: Josie from Sacramento, CA
This is the best rice I have ever eaten at home or out on the town. It is so simple to make and it tastes like something you would get in an upscale Mexican restaraunt. I highly recommned this rice to all of my fellow cilantro lovers.
