Yes, you are the only instant rice wieny in the house.

David Addleton (he who hath no trail name) taught me about rice. There is 
no need to wash the stuff, and it often comes in good ziplock pouches. 1 
part rice to 2 parts boiling water. Add anything you like to it after the 
reboil, cover it on simmer (a cozy might work without the simmer), wait 
20-30 minutes (finish setting up the tent and air out those boots), and 
chow down. It takes much less room than Ramen or Lipton meals. I like to 
add whatever jerky I have (Ingles carries beef, tuna and salmon), dried or 
fried vegies from Harry's Farmers Market, onion or peppers or cheese, and 
lie back and live large. The only thing that competes is instant whipped 
potatoes.
