Not to be TOO politically correct, but isn't the term "rice burner" a bit
xenophobic? Do we call Italian cars or motorbikes "garlic burners" or
bultaco spanish made bikes "grease cycles"?
Just seems a bit arcane and insulting to call something made by another
culture by the supposed that food they eat.
