About this product
Ben's Original Bistro Express Jasmine Rice Soy & Ginger Flavour is a 240 g pouch of ready-to-heat jasmine rice cooked with soy sauce and a seasoning of dried garlic and onion, yeast extract and spices, sold in Canada with an English and French label.[1][2] Mars Canada, named as manufacturer on the Amazon.ca listing of this barcode, described it as ready in 90 seconds in a BPA-free pouch, with no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives, and made in Canada from imported and domestic ingredients.[2][3] One pouch declares 410 Calories and 490 mg of sodium.[1]
The flavour was sold as Uncle Ben's Bistro Express Jasmine Soy & Ginger Flavour before Mars renamed the brand Ben's Original in 2020; the Uncle Ben's recipe of 2018 also listed ground ginger, safflower oil and sunflower oil.[4][5] Ben's Original Canada listed the pouch from 2021 and still in January 2024, but its product URL now returns an error page, and the Amazon.ca listing is shown as currently unavailable.[6][3][7][2]
