[Artemisia] Camping Rice

[Gene Mealey]

I looked a bit more into the freezing idea.  It should work well with real rice, but if you do the fake "compressed rice" it might disintegrate when re-heated.  It might be a good idea to try it ahead of time with the rice you intend to use to see if the quality is still there.
