Why are some people so afraid of beans? Why are 4,700 people agreeing that just eating rice is a good tip? Thousands of years of civilization and we have circled all the way back to poor people surviving on meager rice rations.

Because heating up water is otherwuse too complicated?
someone in college may not have access to a stove but they can find 1 square foot of table space for a rice cooker
They’re like 20 dollars and it will quickly become your most used kitchen appliance.
I get where you’re coming from. I used to be on the same page. Until I got a rice cooker. There is a reason that every single Asian household has one (or an instant pot). Trust that others have figured something out that you haven’t, and take the win.
