Aldi has the Imperial Grain Brown Rice Microwave Pouch 250g for $1.49, that's 16 cents less than the $1.65 you'd pay at Coles or Woolies, and 31 cents under IGA's $1.80. It's the same two-minute nuke-in-the-bag format, so it's handy for quick weeknight dinners, school lunch sides, or bulking out a stir-fry when you can't be bothered cooking a full pot of rice. Brown rice over white means more fibre, which makes it a decent swap if you're trying to stretch meals a bit further without eating worse. Worth grabbing a few pouches while you're in Aldi's pantry aisle.
