LOL! Good come-back, Steve. :-D

Actually, I've never bought the stuff but my Mom(tm) always used it. I also
read that it was the most popular rice in the US for almost 50 years. They
must be doing something right.

Speaking of my Mom(tm). My only experience with "Chinese food" in my
childhood was those La Chow double cans of chow mein that you mentioned
previously. I ate them. Didn't hate the food but didn't love it either.
Wasn't until I got out on my own that I finally tried some real chinese food
from a restaurant.

I wonder if they even still sell those double-cans? I would be tempted to
buy one just for old times sake.
