Posted - Oct 01 2010 : 3:56:20 PM I just bought a nice calico print rice pack at a yard sale, my sweetie has a sore back and I have no clue how long to put this in the microwave for I shoulda asked the lady at the yard sale. DUH!
Thanks in advance for the answer to this. Probably everyone on earth knows but me ![](icons/icon_smile_blush.gif)

Posted - Oct 19 2010 : 05:27:39 AM Hey Annika, Like they say it depends on the size. I have one that is about 8x13 and I heat it for 3 min. But also have one that is quite a bit smaller that I heat for 2 min.
Connie, you could probably use blackeyed peas as long as they are dry. My first two bags had northern beans in them . . . I used them a lot but after a while the beans get an icky odor to them. I prefer the rice. CJ

Posted - Oct 18 2010 : 2:25:21 PM Could you use dried blackeyed peas for a filling rather than rice? Connie

Posted - Oct 17 2010 : 4:05:12 PM I wa srecently given a corn pack, same idea as the rice and I love it. It is about 4x10 inches and I heat it for 2 minutes. Works like a charm!

Posted - Oct 17 2010 : 3:08:24 PM I have made and given away many rice bags - we usually set the micro for about 2 1/2 minutes. I love the heat they give - so much better than a traditional heating pad (in my opinion anyway). Hugs, Ruth

Posted - Oct 01 2010 : 5:59:19 PM it depends on the size- start at about 1-2 minutes and go up from there
