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.<\/p>\n

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:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you can see, it comes with a teriyaki sauce, which comes in powder form mixed in with the rice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is what it looks like before it’s cooked, mixed with some oil and water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next step is to boil the mixture and let it simmer for seven minutes. After that, the instructions say you’re finished, but you’re left with this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you can see, it only looks like a flavorful serving of rice. We can do better. Wysz can do better.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teriyaki sauce, ketchup<\/a>, Worcestershire Sauce, garlic powder, and BBQ sauce? This all looks good to me. Let’s add it to the rice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now it’s looking much better. I think there’s just one more thing to add.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, bacon. Put it on:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stir it up:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
