About this product
Uncle Ben's Bistro Express Jambalaya Style is a 240 g pouch of ready-to-heat long grain parboiled rice with red and green peppers, dehydrated onion, tomato and garlic and spices, sold in Canada with an English and French label.[2][3] Mars Canada listed it on its 2019 unclebens.ca site as creamy and flavourful with no artificial flavours, colours or preservatives, low in fat and a source of fibre, heated in the pouch in a microwave for 90 seconds or in a pan with two tablespoons of water.[3][4] A 125 mL (90 g) serving declares 120 Calories and 460 mg of sodium.[2]
The brand was renamed Ben's Original in 2020, and Ben's Original Canada now sells a Bistro Express Jambalaya Style 240 g pouch under a different UPC.[5][6][7]
