Lotus Foods Gourmet Heirloom Forbidden Rice, 0.94 Pound (Pack of 6) - Packaging May Vary

In fact, this is not the same as black rice. This was my first purchase of black rice, but unfortunately it isn't the same rice. Due to my histamine intolerance, I am very sensitive to artificial flavors/colors in food. In any case, shortly after devouring this rice, I felt sick. I am fairly certain that this is simply black rice that has been dyed. Regardless of the taste, if you value your health and care about what you put into your body, then I urge you to stay away from this product.

I bought a 22-lb bag of this rice. Rice and hot dogs on the forbidden list I had just come close to buying a third when I realized it wasn't black rice. In comparing this product to the organic black forbidden rice I found at Sprouts Marked, the rice at Sprouts had a little bit of reddish coloring in it, was slightly longer, and had a twist to it. It has a slight irregular shape and is slightly large There were short grains of Lotus Foods rice that were black, uniform in size, and a solid black color It looked as if it was Since I survived cancer, I don't eat white rice since it contains glucose more quickly than sugar does, & I also don't eat white bread Diabetes patients or anyone who's trying to live a healthier lifestyle should avoid this product.

The third picture is a head shot of a man On the right you see the rice that I bought here (on the right) and the rice that I bought at a traditional Take note of the difference between the colors and forms. Unlike other rice I usually buy, the rice I bought here is black and uniform in color. Compared to the real black rice on the left that is lighter and not even in color. If you look closely at the other two pictures, you can tell that these rice seeds are very different from each other in form. In my experience, the very black rice has a similar taste and texture to the white rice commonly found in most restaurants. Furthermore, I've boiled both types of rice and the very black rice smelled like the white rice when it's Other rice, on the other hand, does not have that I am throwing out all the rice because I do not want to poison myself with it.

I initially ordered the forbidden rice and I must admit that I was disappointed. The rice on this dish seems too "perfect" on the outside and doesn't pass the vinegar test to my liking, so I thought it was "questionable. " I am not sure if the rice's anthocyanins are coated after harvesting or if they have been incorporated into the rice itself. By the way, I have to give them 5 stars since both the service and the replacement rice were excellent. The other varieties of rice from Lotus Foods are good, although I would not recommend the black rice.

Overall, Lotus Foods is a good company with good products. I would return for more exotic rice from Lotus Foods.

Besides the fact that he ate it every day, that was big for him. The blood had been spilled- It has to do with pressure. As a result of going on the Paleo Diet (which was discovered accidentally while backpacking Having been on what I now know is called the Paleo diet) in combination with regular exercise and quality sleep, I no longer need blood pressure medication. It is a no-no to eat rice (in fact, any pasta) or to consume any processed foods on a Paleo diet. My B/P is now in the 70/120 range, which my MD couldn't believe. Her high blood pressure could be eliminated quickly and easily, I explained in detail to her. It didn't seem like she even took a I just said, "Kevin, you're really lucky, most people don't manage to get off of high blood pressure medications. What that tells you about MDs must be all you need to know about them. Getting back to the Forbidden Rice. I tried this and with about 3 TBSP's of cooked Forbidden Rice (don't be overzealous! I do not notice any change in In addition to that, it has a lot of anti-oxidants! It was once restricted to the Emperors of China (hence "forbidden"). Now anyone can become an Emperor by taking part.

I purchased it in bulk in an attempt to save money and to have it available for future use. I like it very much. I like it very much when it is already cooked because it has a very nice scent, almost like flowers. As a follow-up, I used my new Tatung indirect rice cooker (with a stainless steel pot and interior), and I have been getting excellent cooked rice. I usually cook a large amount and store the extra in the refrigerator, but I suppose doing it daily would be better for taste. In order to preserve its freshness to the greatest extent possible, the extra dry bulk rice has been placed into large glass jars. Rice is the only food I eat daily, and this rice appears to be very nutritious. It is unusual to see black and purple together. Cooking it is very simple for me. I add salt and coconut oil while it is cooking.
