After reading the first two reviews for Miami Rice, I have to admit, I was intrigued. I am a huge rice pudding fan, but I'm used to the kind you get for dessert at Greek restaurants and then of course the KozyShack brand that you can buy at the grocery store (it's not bad for store bought pudding)!\n\nBefore today, I only knew of 2 flavors of rice pudding: plain and with raisins. Not anymore... now I know of approximately 20 flavors thanks to Miami Rice. I was in the area (it's located at the FLW Promenade where Marble Slab used to be) - so I stopped by and was greeted by Susan, the owner of this store and a few others that will be opening soon in the Valley. She was sweet as can be and told me about the history of the store and offered me samples. She sold me on the coconut flavor when she told me she has it for breakfast daily. \n\nInstead of tasting the flavors at the store, I trusted my gut (and the reviews from Dana and Hotchy) and took 2 large servings to go. One coconut and one cinnabon - we picked up dinner to take to a friend's house tonight so this made the perfect dessert! 2 larges were perfect for 4 of us to share.\n\nI wowed our friends as they hadn't heard of flavored rice pudding before and we all licked our bowls clean... I think we ended up unanimously thinking that the cinnabon flavor was better, but they were both delicious; and it was a bonus to see the nutrition info and realize it's not so bad for you either!\n\nI cannot wait to go back and try some of the other flavors and maybe even go a little crazy and mix it with the active culture fro yo. I smiled as I was leaving and Susan said what I knew might be coming... 'Have a Rice Day!' I love it!
