I'm not a big fan of rice pudding, but this recipe was actually pretty good. The maraschino cherries added a nice touch of sweetness and the pudding was creamy and flavorful. I would definitely make this again.

This rice pudding was a disappointment. The maraschino cherries were too tart and the pudding was too runny. I won't be making this again.

I thought this rice pudding was just okay. The maraschino cherries were a bit too sweet for my taste and the pudding was a little bland. I probably won't be making this again.
