How Wysz makes rice

I’m a picky eater. Until a less than a year ago, I didn’t even eat rice, which as a coworker pointed out is “what they give kids when they don’t like anything else.” Now, I do eat rice. I randomly decided to go for it one time at Shabuway, and I liked it. After that, I started eating bacon fried rice at Google.

Since I had successfully eaten rice that had been prepared by others, it was time to see if I could incorporate it into meals that I make myself. I went to the store and found this in the rice section:

As you can see, it only looks like a flavorful serving of rice. We can do better. Wysz can do better.

What I do at this point is open up my cabinet and refrigerator, and pull out anything that looks good. I think of this as “Joey logic,” based on the “It tastes like feet” segment on Friends.

Teriyaki sauce, ketchup, Worcestershire Sauce, garlic powder, and BBQ sauce? This all looks good to me. Let’s add it to the rice.

Yes, bacon. Put it on:

That’s how I make rice. Add egg to taste.
