What's the harm of eating old rice?

There is no harm in eating old rice. Old rice is what we call rice that has been stored for a long time. The general term is about 5 years. There is a difference between old rice and bad rice, so make sure that the rice we eat is old rice, not bad rice.

It's hard to see old rice in the market. If it is really old rice, you can wash the rice several times when cooking, and put some dates and peanuts in it when cooking, which can make the taste sweeter. But if it is spoiled rice with insects, don't eat it any more.

Rice is an important staple food for China people, especially southerners. Whether eating at home or eating out, rice is almost indispensable. China ranks first in the world in rice production, with an annual per capita rice consumption of 97.5 kg. However, due to the large and profitable market, rice chaos emerges one after another.
