Mahatma Extra-Long-Grain White Rice, 5-Pound Bag

This 5-pound bag of Mahatma Extra-Long-Grain Rice is a permanent staple in our pantry. The overall quality of this rice is top-tier; the grains are consistently clean, and the product is completely bug-free, which is exactly what you want when buying a larger bag. When it comes to texture, this extra-long grain cooks up absolutely beautifully. It separates perfectly and has zero unwanted stickiness, making it fluffy and light every single time. The flavor is fantastic too—it has a clean, natural taste that absorbs other flavors wonderfully. Its versatility is really where it shines. Whether I'm using it as a simple side dish, making a hearty pilaf, frying it up for a weekend meal, or incorporating it into a favorite casserole, it turns out perfect. If you are looking for high-quality, reliable rice that works for almost any recipe, Mahatma is a good choice.

I taught English in Thailand and Vietnam years ago, before they became "Spring Break" vacations for Americans and Europeans. I'd almost kill for some good Laotian Sticky Rice, but this is still a good rice product. I didn't really investigate it's health benefits in comparison to other brands, but it cooks well and tastes good.

This is one of those pantry staples I always like to have at home. I cook rice pretty often, and this Mahatma extra-long-grain rice has been really reliable. It cooks up nice and fluffy, and the grains stay separate instead of getting sticky or mushy. I’ve used it for everything—plain rice, fried rice, and even with soups—and it turns out well every time. The 5-pound bag is a good size for regular use. It lasts a while but is still easy to store in the kitchen. I also appreciate that it’s gluten-free and non-GMO, which is a nice bonus. There’s no strong smell, and the rice looks clean with very few broken pieces. Just rinse, cook, and it comes out great. Nothing fancy, just good, dependable rice that does exactly what you need. I’ll definitely keep buying it. 🍚💛

I bought a new rice cooker and have been eating rice regularly. This is very good and the price is great. I buy the 2 pound size as it is the same cost per ounce as buying the 10 pound size. This keeps it fresher and for me it's easier to store five of the 2 pound bags than one 10 pound bag. I've never found those nasty bugs in them, but I place my grains in the freezer for four hours after they arrive here to kill any possible eggs that may be in them. I haven't had any bugs in any of this type of dry goods since I started doing that. And yes, this rice is delicious!

Best rice ever! Shipped promptly! Great price.

This is one my go to brands when looking for good quality.

I love this rice. Best flavor. Its like sticky rice when I cook in my rice cooker. No bugs or dirt. Cooked up so good with some butter and salt. Texture is perfect.

Looks like rice, tastes like rice, must be rice. My favorite brand.
