    One cup of uncooked rice does not make enough for me for dinner, I don’t know how you think two can dine on that.

      Yet 1/2c is the serving size. I can never decide if that’s a useless fiction or a good reminder that rice is a lot of carbs. Anyhow, I’m down to 1.5c (uncooked) for two people

      Well, the typical serving size for uncooked rice is 1/2 cup. Or 1/4 cup if it’s a side dish. That’s typically what I make for my wife and I when we have rice. Perhaps you just like more than the average person does?
