Ugh. Minute Rice - which i grew up on - ah, the friendly smiling face
of Uncle Ben - tastes like paper pulp.

I cooked for about 15 when i made the feast for the King and Queen of
the West at Pennsic in 2007. I used a Coleman stove and didn't burn
the Jasmine rice.
But i will concede that at the average camping event, if cooking for
a large group of diners less discerning than those assembled here,
Minute Rice could sure save time and energy. I haven't cooked the
stuff myself since the late 1960s, so maybe there has been some
improvement in quality...
