4 WAYS TO CONFIRM IF THAT RICE IS PLASTIC

4 WAYS TO CONFIRM IF THAT RICE IS PLASTIC

Here are few ways to confirm if your rice is fake or real.

The Water Test:
Pour a tablespoon of uncooked rice into a glass with cold water and stir it vigorously. If the rice all sinks to the bottom of the glass, it’s fine. If the grains float up to the surface, be careful! There could be danger there.

Fire Test:
Try setting a little bit of your rice on fire with a match or lighter. If it starts burning right away and smells like burning plastic, then you know what to do! (Do not eat it!)

The Mortar and Pestle Test:
When you crush a few grains of rice with a mortar and pestle they should be reduced to a fine, white, starchy powder. But with artificial rice, you will see a light yellow discoloration instead.

The Mold Test:
If you want to know for sure whether your cooked rice is quite safe, put a small quantity into an airtight container and leave it in a warm place. Within a couple of days it will have gotten moldy. Only fake rice stays mold-free
