Replacing white rice in your diet with brown rice may reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, according to a new study.

Only because brown rice tastes nasty and you'll eat less of it.

But Brown Rice takes Twice the Energy to cook.

When the Middleeast goes to war again and America has refused to use it’s own resources, Many will be shivering in the Dark. Because they can’t afford the energy to Heat or Light their Homes. Then the Beauty of White Rice will surface. We will need the extra Energy Bump to Fight the Cold and the reduced cooking time will be a Bonus.

To me you can’t beat white Basmati (tastes kinda like popcorn).

I agree, I just can not swallow brown rice, it sticks and won’t go down - lol

I mix equal parts of white and brown and it makes the brown taste better.

Yeah, seems that “they” (Whoever they are.. doing all these health studies lately) go by one 2 simple rules.

1)Does it taste nasty? Yes? OK its good for you.

2)Does it taste good? Yes? OK its bad for you.

No real rhyme or reason anymore.. or I guess all the Chinese who eat white rice with almost everything, are all obese and diabetic.. LOL

White rice is nasty, pasty and gooey. YUK!!

Brown rice has a subtle nutty flavor and doesn't turn into a lump of paste once it starts to cool. I LOVE brown rice! One of my favorite meals is brown rice with a little butter and soy sauce. Yummmmm....

[irishtenor]

Use HOT sauce!
