I couldn’t find many reviews for this J Way Taiwanese Sticky Rice so I had to resort to getting some reviews from Amazon and Reddit . Therefore, below is a combination of reviews found on multiple sites.

GOOD REVIEWS

“The sticky rice we buy only takes 90 seconds in the microwave. It’s great and perfect for the two of us.”

“ My favorite! “

“Haven’t had Taiwanese sticky rice before. Out of curiosity, picked this up with no expectations. Tried it this morning and it was so delicious. Will definitely buy again 👍🏼

“It has to be steamed to truly taste right! 😋 Yum! Top it with a soy sauce braised egg and some green veggies! Perfect!”

“We love it too”

“I’m very happy with the quality of the sticky rice.”

“The rice is sticky, flavorful, and reminds me of what I have had growing up in Taiwan.

A lifesaver for a quick meal!”

“This product totally caught my eye because it has ZERO preservatives! I love convenient and instant foods and I’m willing to pay more if it means it doesn’t have harmful chemicals as preservatives. I thought the portion is a bit small at the first, but because it’s sticky rice, it made me feel pretty full when I finished the whole packet. Also, make sure when you boil it that the water is really boiling the entire 10 minutes.”

“The taste is really super amazing! Just like youfan (sticky rice) you get from restaurant. I will be buying and recommending this to my friends!”

“Quick prepared meal and of course taste delicious!

I added into my husband’s lunchbox and he loved it too!Another life saver!!”

“I really like this product. It was actually better than I expected!! 2 minutes of microwave is just enough to heat it up and it is ready to eat. It’s perfect for a quick lunch!!”

“A lots of ingredients are mixed in this package, not just sticky rice. Satisfied! Ordering more!!”

“Surprised to see the good quality of the rice after heating it up with microwave. The texture was perfect, nice and sticky. I have had other brands before and the rice tend to be not as sticky.”

“Yummy! Easy to prepare and tastes like one from restaurant:)”

“This rice is so convenient and tasty! Very authentic, tastes like it was straight from my moms kitchen. Will definitely buy it again!”

“It actually tastes really good! I’m impressed!”

“I am from Taiwan and love Taiwanese sticky rice. This product is very delicious and convenient. It doesn’t need to be refrigerated and easily to be reheat, so it is a good choice for camping or traveling.

Like it a lot!”

“Really stunning and delicious. Tasted fresh and flavoursome. Very easy and quick to prepare. Will definitely restock again!”

I just tried this and its very tasty! It seems authentic especially in terms of texture – gelatinous & sticky, so if thats not your thing avoid at all costs. The main flavor profile imo is mushroomy/umami and not very seafoody. Its also not very salty so no clue why someone said that…its subtle & needs a bit of soy sauce tbh. If you cook & add dices of the Kam Yen Jan chinese sausage (also at Costco), you are in for some dericious home eats!

BAD REVIEWS

“Picked this up in San Francisco today! to me it’s very fishy, maybe a little too much for me (not a big seafood person) but is texturally very delicious. I don’t find it that salty but I like salt haha. I’ve never had the authentic dish but I love lo mai gai and I was hoping it’d be similar, which it is but it lacks that flavor from the lotus leaf that I love.”

“I’ll probably eat the rest but try to balance out the fishyness with some vinegar or sriracha.”

““I wanted to like it so bad but I disliked it so much”

“Had it in my cart to purchase, tried the sample and promptly put the item back. Waaaaaay too salty.”🤢
