Components and Types
[edit]I added the headings and information under components and types to add more information to the rice polisher page. I added the components section to help users better understand the workings of a rice polisher and what they are used for. It also lends some understanding to what equipment and practices are used to polish the rice. I added the type section to differentiate between the two common types of rice polisher as a way to inform users that there are multiple types of rice polisher. I also included a description of each type to further differentiate them. --Lkj456! (talk) 00:18, 19 September 2022 (UTC)

Talc
[edit]I can't find anything recent that mentions where and if talc is still being used to polish rice. There are unsourced claims on various websites that it is no longer used in the USA, but I can't confirm that. Anyone?
