Overview

Ben's Original packs Thai jasmine rice with a touch of sweet coconut into family size pouches that heat in the microwave or a skillet. The pouch is BPA-free and doubles as the cooking vessel, so there is little cleanup.

Two-minute prep and family size pouches make weeknight sides fast. The sweet coconut note pairs most naturally with Thai and grilled dishes rather than every meal.

Who it's for

Households short on time get a ready side that pairs with stir fries and grilled proteins. Those wanting neutral rice should choose an unflavored pouch.
