    Nice shifting of the goal post! At first it’s too expensive, now it doesn’t have the right density and takes too much time to prepare?

    the goalposts never moved. the volume it would take to equal the same caloric intake would be more expensive and impossible to consume.

    ever tried to eat a whole cup of rice in one sitting? you’ll throw up. if you’re fortunate enough to eat three meals a day you’ll be eating 3 cups of rice daily, and that’s per person.

    in a six person family that’s 3 pounds of rice per meal! at $1.77 per 2 pound bag of rice. in a month the 6 person family would consume 90 pounds at $159 in rice alone. include all the other ingredients and it’s costly.
