    Really only if you eat a lot of rice. For once a year or so, a pot on the stove works just fine. The actual benefit I’ve see for ricecookers is how well they can hold the rice for hours ready to go, but that’s more of a commercial benefit I think.

      For me, this is the primary benefit of a rice cooker. Having warm, cheap, filling food on demand at any time is fantastic. I am so lazy and my little rice buddies are always ready to go when I can’t be bothered.

      I eat a lot of ice and I still just make it in a pot.

        I like to imagine you huddled over an ice field, stirring water in a pot until it turns to the perfect slushy consistency for your fresh homemade ice.

            Get a box of brownie mix

            Mix according to the instructions

            Put in rice cooker

            Start cooker

            Brownies are done when cooker cycle finishes. Test with toothpick, run longer if not fully baked.
