I don't know why people buy the cheap local rice and then complain of stones, the local rice I have been eating is far costlier than most foreign rice and I haven't noticed any stone. 3 Likes 1 Share |

When you put your teeth on grain of stone, you shout O God. That is why I call it O God rice. The local rice is not hygienically prepared and lacks standard of the foreign. |

Local rice are more Nutritional and Medicinal, people eat Local rice,and if you are not eating it,then you are missing.try and eat Ofada,Igbemo and Abakaliki rice then you will forget foreign rice. Agricultural Engineers have worked a lot on it and there is no more stones in them 1 Like |

delishpot: There are now more than 5 modern rice mills in the country that are producing polished and stone free rice. Infact the biggest stone free rice mill in africa is in nasarawa state, it was comissioned last yr, there are other modern mills in ebonyi and enugu state. Gej administration has updated agriculture in nigeria more than any other govt in our recent history, though most nigerian are not interested in agriculture, but the few that are into modern rice farming are smiling to the bank and u cannot see them talk bad about this govt. The minister of agric . Adesina, is a young man who knows what he is doing. 1 Like |

ohzee:Thank you so much. It seems not so many people are aware of the availability of good quality destoned Abakaliki rice. It tastes way better than the foreign rice and is healthier too. I even think it is becoming more expensive now than the imported rice. 1 Like |

vanunu: Good news. At all at all naim bad pass. Like I said, I like our rice. I was talking about how this imported rice gained ground in naija in the past. I believe goodluck was not the president in the era I was talking about in my former post. That GEJ has improved it, doesnt mean the past did not exist. Relax my guy, I wasnt attacking your GEJ addmin. |

iamord:Have you cooked brown rice before? It is still exported. If you do not appreciate yourself, no one will. Funny enough some of the producers of those foreign ones do not like them, they prefer basmati from India or wherever. 2 Likes |

agabaI23:yeah I have tasted brow rice! Its okay for me, got a bag of mama gold rice ,and its got me wondering if its really imported cos its low quality, and if it is its a shame, they need to research and create better variants of rice here |
Re: Why Do Nigerians Hate Local Rice? by ThaProphet(m): 10:05pm On Jan 03, 2015 |
These same people are the ones who'd be the first to complain about the economy of the country. How would your local rice improve in quality if it is not getting the necessary funds through your patronage? Complain about quality yet you refuse to give the local product the opportunity to improve only to then complain about it later. This applies to those "at the top" as well. I am sure Aso Rock stocks imported rice as well. Stupidity! |
Re: Why Do Nigerians Hate Local Rice? by agabaI23(m): 10:09pm On Jan 03, 2015 |
iamord:I mentioned brown rice because it takes ages to cook not because of taste and yet it is exported. It is choice! The local variants are cool. The Ebony gold from Abakaliki is long grain and you won't know the difference between it and the so called imported by just looking except in taste. 1 Like |

This is a very good point. Brown rice takes forever to cook, pretty much looks and tastes like crap, yet it is popular worldwide. Nigerians need to get over our neocolonial imperial mentality and realize that often times there is nothing wrong with locally made products. agabaI23: 1 Like 1 Share |

The stones, sand and rock you find in some of the local rice over time can be collected and used to construct a solid german floor. 1 Like |

;DTHE LOCAL RICE OF OLD USED TO BE RUBBISH. BUT TRY A NIGERIAN RICE TODAY AND YOU WILL NEVER WANT TO EAT FOREIGN RICE AGAIN. YOU CAN'T EVEN COMPARE. Especially in terms of taste. There are good and well polished Nigerian rice out there. My the ones u use to judge are home made rice with stones. For the past two years in my house we've never bought a bag of foreign rice, just Nigerian rice. |
