What's wrong with S.A rice?

Tastic and Spekko is the same rice!

Spekko was bought by Sasko/Pioneer Foods in the 2000s.

They decided to buy the best quality rice on the market. South Africa does not grow rice, so they have to buy from overseas. And depending on farming conditions, the best available quality changes.

Tastic/Spekko buy from the same sources. If I recall it was Thai rice, but I maybe wrong. I had a conversation with the Rice buyer at least 15 years ago, if not longer.
OP says that is not real rice or something is wrong with it.

It is the only rice I know.

The last time I bought and made rice at home was when I came back from being 3 months in the Philippines. Tried a couple of brands and variations and then gave up. OP is correct in saying whatever we have here just taste like plastic.
Did a ladyboy cook you rice back in the Philippines, is that why you liked it so much?
