The Cost of Rice in Australia in August 2020.
Medium Grain white rice cost looks to be the most popular rice sold in Australian supermarkets, it certainly is the most stocked of all the rices in my local supermarkets.
The cost varies, sometimes by the Brand, but also by the packet size, and the supermarket selling it.
