Reply to comment by lucellent in Can we please normalise the fact putting your wet device in rice isn’t a smart idea? Rice isn’t a magical product. Instead put it in a dry area with sufficient airflow! by [deleted]

you do know that rice absorbs moisture from the air, right? That it doesn't need direct contact? It makes the air incredibly dry, which increases the evaporation rate for moisture inside the device.

If you only wanted to dry the surfaces rice can contact, why wouldn't you just use a paper towel?!

I love how this guy took the time to let us know that rice couldn’t fit inside our phone and suck out water
