rice-like food

Stacie's mom put this on some food, and Stacie sent the picture to Kevin who is my colleague (this is a long chain of quotation mark sending).  I guess it wasn't really rice.

It seems to imply that it's not rice, which generally doesn't need to be handled carefully... Maybe it's nitroglycerine.

There is a rice shortage around the world. She's worried about rioting.

For the life of me I can't figure out what she was really trying to indicate with these quotes! Any legit ideas?

Huh??

Handle carefully? Rice? Not rice?

What the heck? I'm intrigued.

Yeh, I think with the worldwide rice shortage, desperate people will grab anything. I do think she should beware of riots. HeHe

No clue as to why some people do this. Maybe for emphasis? Or, just to be cute, or decorative?

Perhaps she was making an understated comment about the fact that white rice is nutritionally void and therefore can't really be calle rice anymore.
