    Nishiki Premium Grade Rice

    I've recently had to restrict the number of visits I make to my local sushi bar, so I've resorted to the only option left...make my own. I use Nishiki exclusively for everything I make. I do use a rice cooker albeit a cheapie one (under $30) and then season it. It cooks consistently well every time.

    I've also used it for rice pudding because it's more starchy and soft than long grain rice - more like alborio but much cheaper. If you like sticky rice, this is an excellent choice. If you make sushi, you'll like working with it.

    I would caution you to follow the water to rice ratios that they specify, do not use the traditional 2 parts water to 1 part rice - it will be too mushy for sushi (but just right for rice pudding...just add raisins to your rice cooker, a little sugar and a
    ... pinch of salt and you'll hardly need the custard!)

    Kettle Spicy Thai Potato Chips

    Took these on a road trip last weekend, WOWZAH! Loved them so much I vowed never to be without them on another roadfoodfest.

    This flavor mix packs a real punch. When we got home, we made chicken sandwiches for lunch the next day and I put chips in the sandwich as a lettuce replacement. They added huge flavor to the mayo/chicken blandness as well as nice tooth to the mouth feel.

    Last benefit - no need to pack dip to go with these chips...a nice mango lassi smoothie would have cooled down the hot ginger-y burn though.
