Best Mexican Rice Mix
Nueva Cocina Mexican Rice Mix
Although there were 14 entries in the Spanish- and Mexican-rice category, surprisingly few were deemed worth bringing home.
Nueva Cocina’s was the best by far. On the plus side: “You can really taste the tomatoes―and it’s not that weird orangey color
like you find at so many Mexican restaurants,” said one fan. “The flecks of pepper and corn make it a rainbow explosion,”
added another. “Very festive.” But a few complaints about “the not very spicy, too subtle flavor” kept panelists from endorsing
the product unanimously. A good pick for those who like their food on the mild side .
To buy: $3 for 8 ounces.
