Yeah, but with sticky rice, it's not about the rice. The rice is just a
convenient way of consuming the leftovers and juices from the night
before and taking in tasty low calorie energy during the day instead of
say, a bag of chips or a big mac sandwich If you were going to have
rice as your meal or as a part of the meal, you would also cook up some
"regular" rice in the steamer for that.
