1. Burn test:
- Take a few grains of rice and set them on fire with a lighter or match. Real rice will char and turn black, while plastic rice will smell like burnt plastic and can even catch fire easily.
Mortar and Pestle Test
1. Crush test:
- Crush a few grains of rice with a mortar and pestle. Real rice will turn into a fine, powdery texture. Plastic rice, on the other hand, will break into small pieces or clump together.
Taste and smell
1. Taste:
- Cook a small amount of rice and taste it. Real rice will have a natural taste, while plastic rice may have a strange, synthetic taste.
2. Odor:
- Cooked plastic rice may give off a chemical or plastic-like odor, which is a clear indicator of its fake nature.
