Tilda Fragrant Jasmine Rice is half price this week in woolies, link
I think it's the first time they have the 5kg pack on sale?
has anyone tried this jasmine rice before and how about comparing with other brands like Sunrice?
Any Idea on Tilda Jasmine Rice?

Can you name a couple of tasty lower cost brands I can look for in local asian grocery shops. I just mainly buy sunrice calrose, but I would like to try others.
Jasmine rice in Asian shops are more expensive (compared to half-price supermarket sale) but will give it a try
Isn't it from Vietnam? I read that's not great. Thailand is better. I prefer Aussie grown for safer product but I am only guessing with that.
oh I didn't notice but yes it's the product of Vietnam and Jasmine is not the predominant rice variety in there. Thanks for pointing out
I bought a 5kg bag of Jasmine last year, can't remember the Brand or which Store, but after a week it was full of Rice Weevils! They must have hatched out during the week in my Pantry.
I only buy Australian rice now.
oh no that's horrible…yes country of origin matters
Someone mentioned on Ozbargain before, they always put rice in the freezer for a while to kill off the wigglies. I don't need to at over 50, as I can barely see the rice grains.
I suggest buying rice from an Asian market. It's usually cheaper, comes in bulk and tastes much better.
yeah if you like rice it's really not that good.
I had been eating rice from woolies and coles for years. until i had a chinese partner, we buy rice from the asian grocery shops no.
i didnt think i'd be able to the difference but yeah you can.
