One thing I've long noticed is that Thai curry doesn't come with enough rice. There'll be a little box of rice and a big container of curry, and even with generous ladleling I have curry left over, which I usually pour over bread. Despite rice being the cheapest component, probably.
I see two possibilities:
* I'm the one who is stingy with curry, and you really are meant to make a curry soup with rice in.
* If you care about the rice shortage and have money to burn, you can order more rice, spending $3 for 50 cents of rice and almost no additional labor. Pure profit. It's like overpriced popcorn in movie theaters, a way to "charge a higher price" on those with means.
