"RiceDream" news and stories

I was pretty excited yesterday when I saw a carton of Rice Dream Horchata among all the other non-dairy products at my supermarket. Apparently the stuff was released last spring. It's no surprise that it's finally filtered down into the markets here in Florida. Now, I normally don't get excited over dairy substitutes, but I like horchata, and since the real stuff is often made with rice, I figured Rice Dream had a fair shot at making a good version. Really though, it just tastes like Rice Dream with cinnamon. Not that that's a bad thing. If you don't have a Hispanic market in your area and you're dyin' for some horchata, this will definitely suffice.
