When I was in 10th grade in Hawaii at Radford High School back in the olden days of the 1970s all the lower classmen had to work on the cafeteria serving line at school. I did that duty two times. Both times I was serving the rice. Every single meal, always had a glob of super sticky white rice. Even when dropped right next to mashed potatoes! I was handed an ice cream scoop (really) and would drop it on the plate for every kid. It would fall a few inches and bounce. Most kids that ate it just poked it with a fork, and bit into it like a ice cream cone.
When I moved out on my own I was dead broke, and survived on rice. Most meals were rice with soy sauce, and on Friday payday I could splurge and put a can of Hungry man soup on top of the rice. I was eating for 4 or 5 cents per day except that Friday evening fancy meal with the soup.
I used an old Panasonic rice cooker, and made that same gummy rice. The rice came in a cloth bag and was some Japanese brand that I don't remember. I ended up keeping the cloth bag as a rag.
