Applied Nutrition Cream of Rice - High Carbohydrate Cream of Rice Supplement, Source of Energy for Breakfast & Snacks, Easy to Digest, Low Sugar, Low Fat, Vegan, 1kg (Apple Crumble)

I’ve been on the hunt for a decent cream of rice for years. All the bodybuilding or fitness related ones are so so sweet. This one is the perfect level of sweet while still having flavour. It’s easy to mix and creates a nice smooth porridge. It easily digestible and keeps me sustained through the morning if I combine it with some fats (it is simple carbs at the end of the day). I’ve even recommended to my brother because he needs an easy and effective source of carbs in the morning and this does the trick! Very good value for money too.

Horrible texture , taste like flour mix with water

VFM great source of carbs without a fat content, easily mixable when directions are followed.

Mixed well and easily, lasts a while so good value

First time trying this item, liked the idea that it was low in sugar but sadly I have to say I am not a fan of this, it did mix well, I used 100mls hot water from the kettle and mixed it in, left it for a minute or so, I thought it has a weird smell, not use to the product so put it down to the flavouring, went in for the taste test, did not like the taste due to the grainy texture and overall flavour.Sadly I have to decide if I will bin it or struggle through and see if I can find something to pair it with, oh btw it looks like baby food on its own.Updated - 21.05.23, I have decided to post an update on this product, I decided to keep the product and thought I would try it again, this time I made it with 60g and around 350mls cold water, I placed this in the microwave for 2 minutes, I came out all thick at the bottom of the bowl and the water was on top, I thought here we go again, I decided I would just persevere so I started to stir it and mix the water in, after a minute or so it mixed a bit better and looked a bit more like semolina, I was still unsure about the taste (toffee biscuit) so I added in some pitted prunes with a bit of the juice, this made it taste better.I am going to play around with the mixing and water levels to find the consistency that I would like and I will add some fillings to help me get use to the taste, it’s still a bit grainy though but at least the second time was better.I have changed my star rating from 2 to 3 now.

Good value for money and good flavour. Cream of rice is not for everyone, but as someone who likes it, I enjoy this as a snack or meal. It digests well and mixes well compared to other brands I've tried.

I haven't tried cream of rice before so maybe I can't really have a balanced opinion. I purchased the toffee biscuit flavour. The powder mixes very well and easily in hot water. It has a very mild flavour - if you're expecting it to have a very strong taste this isn't it. I like it this way to be honest, just add a bit of cinnamon and it tastes great!

Awful....threw it out
