This Royal basmati is valued for its low effective price and, when fresh, its taste and texture for everyday rice dishes like biryani. The deal can drop further with coupons or Subscribe and Save, and the rice has been described as fresh, dry, and easy to cook in a rice cooker. The main concern is contamination, with repeated reports of bugs, worms, pantry moths, and web-like debris in some bags. A few also prefer Costco, Sam's, or a local South Asian grocery for better quality and packaging.

Some bags have arrived with small bugs, white wiggly worms, pantry moths, ants, or web-like material inside. Other purchases were reported as fresh and bug-free, so checking the bag immediately and storing it sealed or freezing it first can help reduce risk.
The listed deal can work out to under $1 per pound, and with Subscribe & Save plus a $5 off $25 grocery coupon it was reported at $20.49 total. Nearby Costco, Sam's, and BJ's prices were cited around $19-$20 for 20 lb bags, so the value depends on whether you want the Amazon convenience or a warehouse-store alternative.
Some buyers describe it as good quality with a nice taste and texture when cooked well, while others call it dry, flavorless, or not like true Indian basmati. It may work better for everyday rice than for people expecting a premium aromatic basmati profile.
Washing the rice at least three times is recommended, and freezing a bag for a couple of days can kill any weevils or meal moths if they are present. That extra step is especially useful for large bags stored for a while.

Also, if you regularly cook rice for just two or three people, 30 pounds can actually go surprisingly fast.
Regardless, I am not buying it because I am not supporting them what they are doing to other countrymen in their own country.
