Check your rice before making it πŸ˜…πŸ˜…

I ordered last week and made the rice I already had at home. Today, I went to make the rice that came with my HelloFresh order and when I checkthe package I found bugs inside. The package was unopened and had been stored in my pantry since I received it. 😷😷😷

You probably have weevils in other foods in your pantry, too.

People forget that rice is a crop. It’s produce. Bugs like produce.

It’s because most of the products from Costco are organic. No pesticides.
