Does all rice have maggots?
No, rice does not turn into maggots. Because rice and maggots are similar in size and color, a lot of people incorrectly assume this when they see maggots in their rice. Really, those maggots are insect larvae which hatched in the rice. Do all rice have larvae? All rice, no matter if it is cooked or uncooked, does contain larvae in it. Room temperature is the most likely temperature that the larvae will start to hatch.
