I bought a 20 lb bag of rice because the picture looked smaller lol..
Would recommend tossing after a week tops. General guidelines suggest 3-4 days for leftover rice. You might not die eating 2 week old rice but it is a perfect home for bacteria to thrive.
Of course, to each their own.
I've managed to preserve cooked rice for weeks; i immediately deep freeze some of it (after it has cooled down a bit from boiling ofc) in a sealed container and it's perfectly fresh & good even after a month in the freezer.
Part of the trick is to make sure that the rice is still plenty moist when you freeze it but also that you use plenty of olive oil in the water when boiling it. Works for me!

Totally acceptable! 🔥 I haven't tried freezing it yet myself but those tips will help 💯
