There were many experiments like this, including whole countries. E.g. in North Korea, there _is_ a guaranteed basic income (at least by law), equivalent to a bowl of rice per day.

Also, a bowl of rice a day really is fundamentally different to a guaranteed income that can be spent as the recipient wishes. It is more like food stamps in the US.
