What's available online will be dependant on what your registered local store has in stock. You may need to try larger stores for this offer.
(See same issue on thread from 6 weeks ago linded to in post#2)

mysupermarket.co.uk shows this product at the stated price.
the £15.96 bag is twice the size @ 10kg

This is the best quality rice you can get at this price. I have been using LAILA make from the last 3 - 4 years, their rice as well as Flour.

I used to buy 5kg of this rice from ASDA for £9.50 on offer last year. Tesco & ASDA did a promotion on this last month due to Ramadan for £5 and I bought 6 bags.

Rice has been coming more from Pakistan than India recently due to rice shortage in India and inflation.

Pakistan rice uses the river water for vegetation hence high quality. It's the same as with MANGOES coming all over in UK from Pakistan from the last 15 years or so due to it's taste and quality.

And that's true that there is no difference between Indian or Pakistani food as both countries use the same land, culture etc etc before and after separation since 1947

ALSO, Neiliboy - You shouldn't make comments like that

MOD should give you some sort of strike or warning
