I live in a Chinese household in Shanghai. Our rice cooker gets used morning, noon, and night. But only for white rice. I will show my wife this article and see if can start using it for more.

(Take your rice cooker. Plug it in to a little device that monitors the temperature of a water bath in the cooker and holds it at a precise temperature. Crack an egg into a Reynolds handi-vac'd bag, put the bag in the water, set the device to 146 degrees, then go to work. Come back to an egg cooked to precisely 146 degrees. Repeat with short ribs, cooked to 136 degrees, over 48 hours --- medium rare!).
Colour me unconvinced.
(b) you forgot to put "extremely awesome" in front of "blog post", which you mistakenly wrote as "article"
(c) "health problems" meaning "lost his jaw and esophagus to complications of a cancer operation"
i used to put rice and raw chicken fillet and some condiments (optional) into a rice cooker
it's not that bad :D
sometimes i ate it from rice cooker pan? (it's small rice cooker) -> saving time on cleaning (no need for temporary dish)
NB: you can even put raw egg, but the shell will bee sticky
