My new rice cooker

Welcome me to the 21st centry, I've finally gotten myself a "fuzzy-logic" rice cooker. It is a Sanyo ECJ-F50S.

Why is it a big deal... um... it's not. The inner pot of my old Tiger is scratched and rust is seeping out, and that was the second pot I had for that unit, so it was time to rid of it.



Everybody knows, when it comes to rice cookers, Japanese brands rule. And amoung them, it's between Tiger and Zojirushi (them like their zoo animals don't they). Well, I've tried a Tiger, its trash. And I wanted one with a thick non-stick pot, which is only available on the high end models for Zojirushi, so I picked a Sanyo.

This unit has a good enough look, unlike your traditional Japanese rice cookers - pinkish body with floral decorations, oh gee, what the, shame on them - but the real gem is the inner pot, which is extra thick and sports a round bottom for even heating and a titanium coating that promises never to wear out.




Oh, the rice? Disappointingly, no difference.
