ON THE PURPORTED PLASTIC RICE*. DR ABDULLAHI BALA ISA (PhD Analytical Chemistry) wrote.: The net is awash with 'alarm on Plastic Rice' including providing 'hoax websites' for verification..... I'm not against 'alarms', but let's be more thoughtful. 'Personal checks' are the work of 'efficient regulatory agencies' in the said sector..... Rice is a polysaccharide(a type of Carbohydrate), while Plastic are polymers. They will act differently when subject to either 'direct heat' or 'boiling in liquid (Cooking). While rice will absorbs liquid while cooking and soften and become edible, the other will not and will not be edible. They also act differently when subjected to 'direct heat' with 'plastics' simply 'melting' at a very low temperature and turn to a 'viscous like liquid'; The rice on the other hand(on direct heat) will absorbs the heat for a while before darkening and crumbles which we generally call 'burnt rice'. In whatever proportion you mix them as the essay suggest, will reveal different characteristics. Why will a manufacturer( whose primary interest is profit) mix the two distinct items when it is dis advantageous to him; will the plastic added increase or decreases the overall weight of the product for export(plastics are generally of much lighter weights when compared to 'Carbohydrate' food products like rice)? What about the stringent GMP law that exist in the Country which will send the manufacturer easily to jail? Isn't it cheaper to cultivate rice in a natural swampy plains than manufacture 'synthetic polymer fibres', if so, why will an entrepreneur add a costlier item to a cheaper commodity; to enhance what? Will the 'mix product' provide higher profit than unadulterated one (No, please confirm)? They are completely different items that mixing them is not comprehensible.... What you see in the markets are the main ingredients for producing various range and types of plastics, PP(Polypropylene), PE (Polyethylene), PVC(Polyvinylchloride), PET (Polyethyleneterapythalate) etc. The ingredients 'monomers' are in granules (rice like shape of various sizes) for easier application. Plastic industries are Small and Medium Scale Cottage industries in India, China, Korea etc, we look forward to Federal Government keying in and training quite a number of young entrepreneurs to source a living in this direction and also generate additional National Income. Nigeria is blessed with 'all year round moist' and 'flood plains' for bumper rice cultivation and also have great potential for 'Plastic Industries' due to high population... Sorry, I'm just concern about the rigour of 'carrying out test' on an unnecessary imported cash crop which we can produce in abundance here. It is excusable to import 'polymer granules' for manufacturing of Nigerian made plastics, slippers, containers, bottles than the 'Asian climate rice' the essayist is alarming us on... the weblinks are mostly 'hoax' stuff #copied. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

You people should just stop all these your propaganda , can you cook plastic and it get softer , please I don't think any reasonable person in these country will see plastic rice and buy it . For example how did you recognise ofada rice, small and big rice. Moreso, the weight of plastic rice will differ from that of a normal rice , kindly put broken plastic in a bowl filled with water it will usually float. Then, you were advice to go to school but you insisted I belong to ipob , militant 3 Likes |

2busy: Thank you for this, It is a shame that people with education have refused to ask questions before coming to a conclusion on a subject matter. The material in the video is known as plastic pellets, they are recycled plastic which serves as raw materials for the production of everyday plastics. I was sent the video early lastweek and I had to educate the person who sent it to me thinking only a few will be that gullible but I never realised that our larger soceity is filled with pathetically gullible people.... 3 Likes 1 Share |

Why is China developing their food technology in negative ways? Sometime ago we heard they were manufacturing capsules by using human beings and again we saw through internet that they were also using human flesh as cornbeaf. Why are they always in the news for negative reasons. They are now using plastics as rice. Are they human beings at all. if they are too many and will like to reduce their population, they should limit these negative and poisonous technology to their country. I regard all these as evil minded which should only be within their territory. |

Re: Tips On How To Identify Plastic Rice by Nobody: 5:13pm On Nov 25, 2016 |
Nigerians ehh,, there's nothing like plastic rice What you see there is the raw materials for producing polymer and plastics imported by plastic companies What we have is artificial rice not plastic rice Artificial rice is a grain product made to resemble rice. It is usually made from broken rice, sometimes with the addition of other cereals, and often fortified with micronutrients, including minerals such as iron and zinc and vitamins, such as vitamin A and vitamin B. Please educate yourselves And by the way, which of the above commenters have seen one in the market before? 3 Likes |

When we kept on patronising substandard chinese products, its only a matter of time and substandard foods would be manufactured and shipped down to naija. We have told them we loved them substandard, sk why all the crying blue murder. Cheap substandard product is not the way. We neeed to prove as a country that we have standard. Agencies responsible needs to wake up and man our borders properly. Someone is turning his eyes the other way while his pockets is greased to allow such onto the country He who sows evil shall reap evil no doubt |
