Wow! This looks fantastic because I love wild rice. It's gonna taste even better with some good seasoning. I think many people don't eat wild rice because it can be kind of hard sometimes and even tasteless.

That looks more than good, it looks down right delicious. I really wish I could get my husband to eat more rice but he really can't stand it. I love it myself, give me rice any day of the week.
