Personally I never heard of anyone who didn’t like or want a rice cooker until I left my part of Asia, but now when I talk about it I don’t care to change anyone’s mind.
It’s not a single use gadget, it’s my depression food machine.
Put in rice (without washing even) in a single person small rice cooker, add soy sauce, a leafy veg, a protein. Press a button. Leave. Eat.
Or do the Indonesian college student dorm room special: put leftover KFC in it.
