>EDIT EDIT: Wait, Table S3 lists 'rice basmati' with a frequency of occurrence of 69, but Table S4 lists 'rice' with a frequency of occurrence of 256. This smells of improperly sanitized data. I haven't read the article yet, but replying to your comment, it may not imply improperly sanitized data (if by sanitized you mean something like normalized, in this context); because basmati rice is different from "general" rice - it is a more expensive kind, typically used in biryanis and pulaos, and not so commonly eaten, except that nowadays it is starting to get more common. And BTW, it smells good - basmati I mean, and that's why it is called that: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basmati#History_and_etymology http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basmati#History_and_etymology
