I Can Touch Grits, No Really I Can (The Blistered Millets Department)
Created Jan 27, 2026
Geoff's Rice Songs ranks an eccentric collection of parody tracks obsessed with the art (or crime?) of burning, charring, and scorching rice to perfection—or disaster. These hilarious reimagined classics include "Scalded Rice," "Charring Rice Like Raisins [California Dreamin]," and "Don't Trust Chefs (Chefs Don't Know Rice) [Don't Know Why]," each celebrating the controversial culinary technique of deliberately burning grains. From wok mastery in "Fast Char (Hot Wok)" to the poetic "Fields of Grain (Specks of Char)," these songs explore every angle of rice preparation gone delightfully wrong. Whether you're team crispy char or team perfectly steamed, this ranking offers a humorous deep dive into one person's musical obsession with transforming innocent grains into blackened, blistered masterpieces.
