Review: Tasty, convenient, and perfect for quick meals - This 6-pack of Uncle Ben’s Mexican Style Rice is a pantry staple for me. The flavour is great — mildly spicy with a nice blend of tomato, peppers, and herbs. It’s not overpowering, so it works well with a variety of meals, especially fajitas, burritos, or even just on the side of some grilled chicken or veggies. Super convenient too — just 2 minutes in the microwave and it’s ready to go. Perfect for quick lunches or lazy dinners when I don’t feel like cooking from scratch. The rice is fluffy and never comes out mushy, which I’ve had issues with in other brands. Great value in the 6-pack, and the long shelf life means I can always keep a few in the cupboard for busy days. ## Features - Convenient: Microwave rice in just 2 minutes - No artificial colours, flavours or preservatives - Ben´s Original Mexican Style microwave rice is suitable for vegetarians - Ben´s Original Rice is sustainably sourced - Gently steamed for 2 servings of perfect rice every time ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0C5NBH1D9 | | Age Range Description | 12+ | | Best Sellers Rank | 1,792 in Grocery ( See Top 100 in Grocery ) 18 in Instant Meals & Sides | | Brand | Ben's Original | | Brand Name | Ben's Original | | Coin Variety 1 | Mexican | | Container Type | Pouch | | Country of Origin | United Kingdom | | Cuisine | Mexican | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 207 Reviews | | Diet Type | Vegetarian | | Flavour | Mexican Style | | Item Form | Grain | | Item Package Weight | 1.44 Kilograms | | Item Weight | 1320 Grams | | Item weight | 1320 Grams | | Manufacturer | Mars Food | | Manufacturer Contact Information | Mars Food UK, National Office, Freeby Ln, Melton Mowbray LE14 4RS, United Kingdom | | Number of Items | 6 | | Number of Pieces | 6 | | Number of items | 6 | | Package weight | 1.44 Kilograms | | Set Name | 1 | | Size | 220 g (Pack of 6) | | Specialty | Vegetarian | | Unit Count | 1320.0 gram | | Unit count | 1320.0 gram | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Ben's Original - **Cuisine:** Mexican - **Flavour:** Mexican Style - **Item weight:** 1320 Grams - **Number of items:** 6 - **Package weight:** 1.44 Kilograms - **Speciality:** Vegetarian - **Unit count:** 1320.0 gram - **Variety:** Mexican ## Images ![Ben's Original Mexican Style Microwave Rice - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/811bP69CX0L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Flavor** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice rice nice price. *by J***T on 25 August 2026* Nice tasting rice and got them from Amazon on the buy 4 pay for 3 offer so very good value indeed. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tasty, convenient, and perfect for quick meals *by L***S on 7 April 2025* This 6-pack of Uncle Ben’s Mexican Style Rice is a pantry staple for me.
