Maybe the easy cook doesn't need that rinsing through before cooking.
Other than that. . Wtf!

Yeah, it looks part cooked or something, it's darker than the other one.

So why does the 'Easy cook' one take longer?

People often believe that easy cook means that it takes less time to cook when in fact it takes longer than non-easy cook rice.

Parboiled rice (otherwise known as easy cook rice) is as it suggests parboiled at source with the husk on, resulting in the grain appearing slightly off white in colour that is until it is cooked when it turns white. This process guarantees separate grains of rice that are fluffy and remains so when holding which is ideal for the foodservice industry.

The question is, why is the one easier to cook than the other one? Just because something is easier to cook, it doesn't mean it takes less time to cook.

I don't microwave anything, but why isn't it good for you?

Pat Rice and Tony Currie appeared on the same pitch together several times, albeit in opposition.

Do you mean one player in one half of the pitch and one in the other, hence the phrase half n half.

Only if one of them 'chip'ed the keeper.

What about if one or both of them had a fight with referee Dominic McDonald or, if you will, had a "pop-at-dom".
