About this product
Uncle Ben's Bistro Express Long Grain & Wild – Roasted Chicken Flavour is a 250 g pouch of ready-to-heat long grain parboiled rice and wild rice with a roasted chicken seasoning, sold in Canada with an English and French label.[2][3] Mars Canada, which signed the brand's Canadian site, described it as creamy and flavourful, without artificial colours or preservatives, heated in the pouch in a microwave for 90 seconds or in a skillet.[4][5] Metro.ca still catalogues this UPC at CAD 3.79.[3]
The recipe changed after 2019: the maker's page listed yeast extract and a flavour containing milk, soy and wheat, while the list Metro now gives adds carrots, modified corn starch, chicken fat and dried chicken powder.[6][3] The brand was renamed Ben's Original in 2020, and the maker's Canadian site now sells the flavour under that name; the renamed pouch carries a different UPC.[7][8][9]
