White rice is basically the hard tack (clack clack) of the east.

Calm down Max.

I've made hard tack because of Max Miller. Hellfire stew, too, and it was surprisingly good. I did season it a bit more than just hard tack and bacon, of course, but it's a pretty damn good dish.

Oh oh - he alluded to Weenie Royale in his video about food in the Japanese internment camps, so I looked up a recipe for that and made it a couple of times. Also surprisingly good, albeit a bit of a historically accurate reminder of the cruelty of human beings while eating it.

There are a few of his recipes I've wanted to try, but I cook for a bunch of pretty picky eaters.

Make them enough for everyone, and also some dry white toast for anyone who doesn't want to eat the food that someone else cooked for them.
