What You Should Know
You'd find this 365 by Whole Foods Chicken Fried Rice in the refrigerated or frozen prepared-meals section — an easy grab for a busy weeknight, quick lunch, or convenience-focused grocery run. It gives a nostalgic takeout vibe and feels comforting, but the long list of industrial ingredients and additives (maltodextrin, soy sauce powder, caramel color, stabilizers, seasoned/processed chicken and added oils) and the reconstituted textures point to a highly processed ready meal.
