INigerian authorities have seized 2.5 metric tons of reportedly fake rice during the holiday season.
On Tuesday, the Nigerian Custom Service said it intercepted 102 bags of a brand called Best Tomato Rice after the recipient of a gift of rice alerted authorities. The health ministry released a statement on Friday urging Nigerians to remain calm after preliminary findings found no evidence that the rice was plastic or consisted of toxic chemical substances.

The health minister’s statementcontradicts earlier reports from customs officials.
Mamudu Haruna, comptroller of the Federal Operations Unit, called it “plastic” rice at a press briefing in Lagos Thursday. “We have done the preliminary analysis on the plastic rice. After boiling, it was sticky and only God knows what would have happened if people consumed it.”

So, there is nothing like fake rice? Phew!
I wonder what this is then:
Tafasary stick to politics. There is artificial rice edible safe yada yada and the plastic rice hoax.
Mod-mthuthist,
Mbona unacatch kama @Deorro na mchele si wako?
Sija catch, the whole hoax was picked by reputable news outlets and most guys like you assume it’s the truth. How heartless can Chinese people be to make rice from plastic, how sustainable is the business in the long run? Simple logic can tell you it doesn’t add up. We know they are not saints but anyways choose what you wanna believe.
You forget the Chinese are the same guys who made melamine-tainted powder milk. For infants!!
