Go to freerice.com to do vocab and other subjects of learning while for every question right give twenty grains of rice to the hungry. So get smart and help people:naughty:.

Not to sound disrespectful, but that's throwing dozens of 'sceptical' switches in my head. Well, actually just two.
1. If they already have the rice, they shouldn't hold it ransom to get people to go to their site. And why just twenty grains of rice?
2. No one is going to profit from someone else "just answering questions". There has to be a way to pay for the rice.

Something just seems fishy.

It really is a cool site!

Chompers, your cynicism is impressive. :) I'm actually pretty skeptical about these sort of claims. My suspicion is that they donate the rice regardless of how many words we know (probably for a tax break). This site is geared towards students, the main positive benefit is to give kids a chance to be charitable. Anyhow, it's kind of fun to play!

it looks like the rice is donated by the sponsers and adds on the website but i dont see many adds lol
its a very good idea as free donations = alot of traffic and more traffic on a sight = more money for adds and more rice for free
