The pack details above come from the manufacturer. Ingredient research below does not establish the effects of this exact product or independently verify its contents.
A seasoned rice mix with corn and tomato
The complete current manufacturer formula combines enriched parboiled rice with chicken flavour, whole-kernel corn, tomato flakes, bell pepper, tomato powder, cumin, jalapeño, garlic, parsley, Yellow 5, chili pepper and annatto. The chicken-flavour component includes chicken fat.
Keep the dry portion attached
The current pack artwork gives 160 kcal, 35 g carbohydrate, 3 g protein and 540 mg sodium per quarter-cup dry mix (45 g). Water and separately added cooking fat change the cooked portion; do not treat a cooked quarter-cup as the same reference.
Why this photograph was selected
The unchanged contributor front photograph and accompanying full side panel show the matching 7 oz box and current 160 kcal formula. A different contributor panel in the same record shows a 160 kcal label but less complete ingredients; the complete matching side panel is the comparison evidence. Manufacturer sources were checked 2026-10-29; use the supplied pack if it differs.

What deserves your attention?

Suitability comes before strength
Cooking adds water and changes portion weight. Broth, oils and toppings alter the finished meal. Check gluten and other allergens on the exact pack.
Dietary details for this product
Animal-derived Chicken fat appears explicitly in the full chicken-flavour ingredient list. This is animal-derived, even though the pictured dish prominently shows rice and vegetables.
A dietary label and an allergy assessment answer different questions. Check every ingredient, the capsule or softgel materials and the allergen statement on the pack you receive.
