Cheap and tasty! I love that you can get to pick what kind of ingredients you would want. What kind of rice you want like Jasmine, white, brown. Also I enjoy the taste of the flavor They even made me try out the curry sauces. I ended up mine no meat and veggies. You can also add on corn and other ones I can't remember for a buck fifty. The whole thing cost me only $12. Yumm
