One of the widely spread news is the selling of fake rice within the vicinity of Asia. Usually in the East and Southeast. But the allegedly fake rice from China has already reached the Philippines. As a family from Davao was shocked when the rice that they bought from a supplier was not what they expected.
When the family cooked the rice, it was like the texture of a styrofoam. The rice is so white as a fleece but when it was cooked they knew that something was not right. Carmencita Grinio, the housewife who discovered the fake rice, did not bother to serve the rice because she knew that it was not safe.
The Grinio family had alerted the National Food Authority about the incident, they asked for a sample of the rice and will further investigate. The Department of Health will also check this matter.
According to Food and Drug Administration, if you found out something suspicious or strange about the rice that you are cooking doesn't put yourself to the test. It is better to be safe than sorry.
Especially now that there is a rumor about the fake rice that is being distributed in parts of Asia that contains a synthetic resin that is fatal to mankind.
They say that prevention is better that cure. So let's always be mindful of the foods that we're going to eat. Always make sure that it is approved by the departments that handles those concern.
