Hey there, Rice-a-Roni - there are 8 billion other people in the world, so it’s pretty bold and exceedingly stupid to speak for all of them. In fact, I’ll bet there are literally a billion people in the world that buy their rice 25kg at a time. I know it is very common in Hawaiian households, I’d guess that there are more Hawaiians buying 25kg bags of rice than there are Hawaiians buying 1 kg bags.
Right - and my point was that the whole rest of the world doesn’t see or experience life in precisely the same way that you do. It is only stupid to make broad generalizations about the whole rest of the world from your tiny little corner of it.
The same also applies in your way, though. Realise that not everybody buys 25 kg bags. Sure, I learnt something new today. But I think it’s good to keep in mind that the world is a nice varied place where not everyone does the same.
I’ll say… 25kg in two days is over 42k calories per day. Either south east Asians are literal human machines that do the hardest physical work imaginable or they’re all fatter than OP’s mom.
The average south east Asian eats that much? I find that hard to believe. Maybe you mean 2.5 kg? Then I could see that being plausible for a household of four, spread over a week.
I am looking for places to buy 50 lb sacks of people grain, especially barley. Feed stores sell them but idk what chemicals they use. 20 bucks at feed stores for ag.
What I hate is stores that give the price per unit in ounces. Especially when it is in pounds elsewhere, like the more expensive one the price will be in ounces so then you have to multiply times 16 in the store in your head it is super annoying.
Where I am they also use different units. Could be could be 100g, could be 1kg. But since, well, you know, the metric system, all you have to do is move the decimal point to multiply or divide by 10.
Is that ounces as in mass or ounces as in volume? Or is it both.
Haha, either liquid or dry ounces, fun to do the dividing into 128 for gallons too but 16 is a pint and 32 a quart and 4 to a gallon so it is easier unless the chiseling companies downsized their products to 12 oz from 16.
Which customer buys 25 kg of rice at once? Literally nobody.
Skill issue, regardless.

Dunno why you needed to say ‘Rice-a-Roni’, but I think it’s not stupid to be baffled at buying 25 kg of rice.
Most I see is 1 kg bags.

You’re the one that literally said “Which customer buys 25 kg of rice at once? Literally nobody.”
Your attempts at backtracking don’t work when the only thing someone needs to do to refute what you’re saying is looking up.
Extremely common in Asia.
That’s what the average SEA eats in like 2 days. Its the big bags at any grocery store
Correct. I have not been riding motorbikes since before I could walk, so I cannot do what the locals do. Yet.
No the fuck we don’t. A 5kg bag lasts an entire week for a family of four adults
Slight exaggeration for comedic effect.

Big sack cheap. And motorcycle lifestyle is a sea thing.
That’s roughly two bags at Costco. Way more than my wife and I would buy for just us, but I could see larger families reasonably buying that much.

You and your funny units

I buy 5 or 10kg bags of rice at once and i live alone.
