What to check before you buy
Check the bag is sealed and the brand logo and batch date are printed clearly; refilled 5kg bags are common in markets.
Work out the price per kilo: a 5kg bag usually costs more per kilo than a 50kg bag of the same brand.
Look for stones, broken grains and weevils before paying, especially for unbranded rice.
Online stores add delivery fees; confirm the total price and stock before you pay.
