Rice Meal Express | Plant-Based Arroz à la Cubana

In just a few short weeks 7-Eleven rolled their take on the Arroz à la Cubana, and it is part of the range of plant-based meals in collaboration with Un-Meat. It is no surprise to see that a convenience store like 7-Eleven would produce their interpretation of this rice meal that would be their latest product that started appearing over the weekend. Coincidence? Or it just so happens that Shopwise Supermarket just happened to have a similar product, and 7-Eleven happened to come up with their take on the same dish that is more affordable than the regular Arroz à la Cubana, but with a twist in making it plant-based along with their take on the Meatballs becomes a curious proposition.

Shopwise Meal | Arroz à la Cubana

With so many convenient stores offering their take on some famous rice meal dishes, you might rarely stumble upon bigger supermarkets that offer the same alternative at an affordable price that is just right if you know where to look. This past week was quite a discovery by accident and its popularity is taking off. Shopwise is best known for being a big grocery offering products and even ingredients to make your food. But offering rice meals was not one of them, and it was quite a surprise that something like this would find its way to their Deli area, which is a newly renovated image for Shopwise that’s been around.
