Just because it’s rice doesn’t mean it lasts longer than other food. Over time, cooked rice may grow bacteria that produces toxins, which can make you sick. So, make sure you cover, refrigerate and only keep for a day or two.

Don’t risk making your whānau sick. Eat any leftover food within two days. If in doubt, chuck it out.

Anna Chesterfield, 37, suffered fractures to her face, legs and sternum in the incident, in the suburb of Taita, on Saturday. Police have confirmed the incident happened at a pedestrian crossing.
Chesterfield’s children, aged 10 and 8, are being cared for by family while she is in hospital.
Police are still hunting for a grey Mitsubishi Diamante, which they believe hit Chesterfield.
In a statement, police urged the driver to turn themselves into their nearest police station.
They believed the car may be missing a left, front fog light cover and have a broken windscreen.
Any members of the public that recognise the vehicle or have any information regarding the crash are urged to contact police on 105, quoting file number P045322349.

Canterbury has been named the fifth most welcoming region in the world in the Booking.com Traveller Review Awards, while Oamaru, Hokitika and Invercargill have been named the most welcoming towns in NZ. They were followed by Cambridge, Picton, Lake Tekapo, Kerikeri, Palmerston North, Paihia and Twizel.
We'd be really keen to hear your thoughts on this based on your own travels around New Zealand. Do you think Canterbury is NZ's most welcoming region? And are these our most welcoming towns?
Where in NZ have you been made to feel particularly welcome on your travels?
As usual, please put 'NFP' in your comment if you don't want it to be included in an article. Cheers.

Developers Willis Bond & Co bought the former AgResearch centre in Wallaceville, Upper Hutt, in December for an undisclosed sum with plans to convert it into 40,000 square metres of commercial space.
Director David McGuinness said there had been significant interest in work spaces that would allow people living outside of Wellington to work closer to home, and for resilient locations that were more likely to be operational after a natural disaster. Interest had been growing since the Kaikōura earthquake and was renewed following the lockdown.

Council possum trapping, Zealandia and people planting flax and kowhai are factors that helped their recovery.
Wellington Bird Rehabilitation Trust spokesperson Craig Shepherd said tūī and kererū numbers had skyrocketed in recent years.
The Johnsonville based trust is getting so many tūī it is struggling to cope. The trust wants to build two new aviaries for recovering tūī and it has set up a Givealittle page.
