Prema,

If sense of smell were all there was to selecting the "right" foods, then people who crave chocolate, and other addictive foods, would be the healthiest people around. How about the smell of coffee in the morning?

If you burn rice in a pressure cooker, try using an Ohsawa pot in the pressure cooker. I have never burned anything cooked in an Ohsawa pot, even when it was cooked for twice as long as it should have been.
