WARNING! 6 tests to help you spot fake rice

Reports indicate that China produces fake rice which is mixed with plastic for exportation to African countries including Nigeria.

China has a history of making fake food items and the fake rice phenomenon has been there for a while.

A reputable English-language newspaper in Korea, The Korea Times, reported that “China famous for having all, making all, has now been reported to have made rice out of plastic and has distributed it.”


The ‘plastic rice’ is reportedly made by forming potatoes and sweet potatoes into regular rice grains shape, then adding industrial synthetic resins. It remains hard after cooking and can cause serious health issues.

Experts have raised the alarm of possible flooding of the Nigerian market with the ‘plastic rice’.


As Christmas draws close, a lot of people will be getting bags of rice from their employers, friends and well-wishers.

You can determine if your rice is fake by carrying out any of the simple tests below.

1. The mortar and pestle test

When molding a few grains of rice with a mortar and pestle, if the powder gives a quite white colour, you are good to go but it has a yellow discoloration, your rice must be fake.

2. The fire test


You know what plastic smells like right. So, get a lighter and burn a handful of rice. If it catches fire and smells like burnt plastic, you have fake rice.


3. The water test


Get a glass of cold water. Pour a tablespoon of raw rice in the glass and stir. If the rice goes to the bottom, it is all good. If it floats at the top, be careful because it means it contains ‘plastic rice’. Do not eat.

4. The mold test

Boil the rice. Leave it in a warm place for like 2-3 days. If mold does not appear in a few days, your rice is fake and should not be consumed. It will not get mold because plastic is not affected by the weather or temperature.


5. The boiling test

Observe the rice while boiling. If it starts forming a thick layer at the top of the pot, it is ‘plastic rice’.

6. The hot oil test

Just take some of the rice drop into some real hot oil. If it is plastic, it will melt or stick together or stick at the bottom of the pan.

Share these tips with your friends and family so they do not end up eating ‘plastic rice’. These tests are very simple. Do not eat plastic rice, be careful.

I had an ugly experience yesterday at UBA, Ikot Ekpene in Akwa Ibom state.

Having waited for so long on ATM queue which ran out of cash, I decided to use the counter. Upon drawing a slip and present to the teller, he took the slip from me look at it and asked me to use the ATM as he cannot pay me. I was furious and refused to leave. About 3 others left having same story.

He later told me unless his superior signed the slip he can't do anything. So i approached the man and he yet referred me to another which I also approached. He signed the slip for me and I went back to the second fellow for payment.

He only looked at my face and gently asked 'are you a policeman?'

It is now difficult to get your own money. This is how Nigeria's cashless policy is operating.

This is cute!
The power of diligence.

Chei!
We don die for NL. Now Suen go dey ban all opposing post may be ten years.

No rice for the poor and high cost of all Christmas consumables.

When he and his cohorts sponsored people to stone the President of the Federal republic of Nigeria, they thought it is all gone.

This is just the beginning.

That's Christmas snake on a Christmas tree.

A man is like a shoe lace, he passes through many holes before he finally ties the nut.

If you must pass through many holes, please remember not all holes are smooth, some are rough and leaves permanent marks on the lace.

It takes humility to undergo tutorial.
APC is damned because of pride.

They said he is a lawyer.
May be he graduated the same year with Buhari.

Even your misspellings and syntax are a testament to this lie.

It would have been more civilized if you check the news on another platform.

Forget all these una oyingbo grammar.

What's aberration about that? Okorocha merely replicates Buhari's feat. This time it is his wife that's made the Super Commissioner to rival the man at the Federal level.

Change is working.

its your type that is drawing our country backward

How abusive and aggressive some people can be.

What in that post warrants this level of response from you?

Ill-fated Supporters Club.

I am not sure Magu is the only qualified personnel for this job.

They are other tens of thousands out there. Buhari should not tell us only those he appoints are the Angels.

This Igbo people sometimes are their enemies.

How can they invite the two major conspirators and sworn grand enemies of the Igbo race to a major gathering as this?

They still reap but blame no foe.

So Dalung is a lawyer?
No wonder the law profession is losing its steam and dignity!
Dalung should be 'de-bar' immediately.

Which are they learning - Shari'a or Western education?
I am sure for such attention, it must be a Koranic education.

Thank God this time saints are fighting.
I wonder how we came into this mess.
Wonder the inscription: When he sees the broom, he will pass over you.

It is now evident that Buhari anticorruption fight is a ruse.

Would he have waited so long had it been any member of the opposition party was named?

The IGP will set up another committee to probe this.

Why is this land flowing with human blood? Sadly those who are paid to protect it are the ones wasting it.

Truly it was a war.
But those blood will certainly haunt those who murdered them Wike or whoever.
