If you've ever been caught in the chaotic whirlwind of daily life, staring at the clock and wondering how you’re going to whip up a satisfying meal in under 20 minutes, let me introduce you to your new kitchen savior.This pack of six 8.5 oz pouches of ready-to-serve Jasmine rice has single-handedly transformed my weeknight dinners from “meh, maybe takeout” to “wow, I just made that!” And the best part? It requires no effort. Like, zero. Nada. Just pop the pouch in the microwave for a couple of minutes, and boom—fluffy, fragrant rice that smells like it was simmering in a luxurious pot for hours. Let me break down why this little pouch of magic deserves a permanent spot in your pantry.First Encounter:When I opened my first pouch, I was already impressed by the design. This isn’t your typical rice—it's BEN'S ORIGINAL. The packaging is sleek, sturdy, and perfectly portioned. With its vibrant branding and the promise of high-quality Jasmine rice, I was curious but skeptical. Could microwaveable rice really be that good? Spoiler alert: It is.The Experience:I hit start on the microwave, and within seconds, my kitchen was filled with the delicate, floral aroma of perfectly cooked Jasmine rice. No rice cooker. No boiling water. Just the gentle hum of the microwave working its magic. After 90 seconds, I opened the pouch, and what emerged was nothing short of kitchen sorcery—soft, fluffy grains of Jasmine rice, each piece separate and perfectly cooked. This isn’t the gummy, clumpy stuff of my worst rice-cooking nightmares. This is the type of rice that would make a chef proud.Taste and Texture:Let’s talk about flavor. Jasmine rice is known for its slightly nutty, floral taste, and BEN'S ORIGINAL absolutely nails it. The texture? Absolutely on point. Every grain is distinct, with just the right amount of chew, and none of that mushiness you might expect from something that comes out of the microwave. I took a bite and immediately thought, “There’s no way this came from a pouch.”Pair it with stir-fry, curry, grilled chicken, or even just a dash of soy sauce for a minimalist meal—this rice plays well with everything. I've even used it as the base for a quick fried rice dish, tossing in some veggies and an egg, and within minutes I had a meal that tasted like I ordered it from a high-end Asian restaurant.Convenience:This is where BEN'S ORIGINAL Ready Rice truly shines. It takes longer to set the table than it does to prepare this rice. I’m talking about a 90-second transformation from “What am I going to eat?” to “Wow, dinner is ready!” Imagine coming home after a long day, and instead of waiting 20-30 minutes for rice to cook, you’re diving into a plate of perfectly cooked Jasmine rice in under 2 minutes. It’s not just convenient—it’s a miracle.And with a Pack of 6, you’ve got yourself covered for the week. These pouches are a lifesaver for busy nights, quick lunches, or when you need an instant side dish that doesn't taste like a shortcut. It’s the closest thing to having a professional chef cook your rice, minus the hefty price tag.Portion Size:At 8.5 oz per pouch, the portion is generous and surprisingly versatile. One pouch is enough to serve two people as a side dish, or if you’re like me and need a carb-heavy meal to power through your day, it’s the perfect solo indulgence. I’ve even used it for meal prepping, portioning out my lunches in advance, and the rice stays fresh and fluffy throughout the week.Final Thoughts:If you haven’t tried BEN'S ORIGINAL Ready Rice Jasmine Rice, you’re seriously missing out on a kitchen revolution.

Trust me, once you’ve tried it, there’s no going back. You’ll wonder how you ever survived without it!

I love this, so easy and quick and great taste

Heats quickly. The taste is not my favorite. The jasmine is better. Good value and size.

Uncle Roger may hate packet rice, but for me it’s a time and work saver. The 8 oz packages are just right for the two of us. It has a good flavor and texture, the grains keep their shape beautifully. The convenience is the real selling point. Rice ready in 90 seconds!!

I am never disappointed with BEN'S Jasmine rice packets. It takes all the guess work out of getting PERFECT RICE and I really like the serving size of the packets. NO MORE WASTE. It is EASY PEASY to prepare by just following the directions. I like to add frozen veggies and/or substitute broth for water to have a tasty nutritious side dish. I used all of BEN'S flavors. It's now OFFICIAL! I AM A LAZY COOK!! Thanks BEN, my new SIDE DISH!

I was skeptical about the quality until I tried it. It was surprisingly good, if you like sticky rice this is great. Easy and fast to make, no real cleanup needed.

I buy this product, as well as the jasmine, all the time. Affordable and super easy to make. I have tried a lot of microwaveable brands and this is at the top (the brand with the purple bags are good too). I like it as a side, without, without gravy (I use golden mushroom soup) and just by itself with a sprinkle of salt.
