Questions & Answers
I've put rice from all over the world to the test. Many years ago, I was surprised to learn that California had the lowest heavy metal profile in the world, despite the fact that heavy metal is ubiquitous. Lundberg is a fantastic rice farmer in California. In comparison to Chinese rice, there are only a tenth of the metals.
It has to be grown in southern Colorado if it is truly "American Grown." However, there is a limit to the amount of product that can be made there. The Andes (Peru and Bolivia) produce 95% of the world's output. The most significant impediment to U.S. trade is currently the U.S.-China trade war. Quinoa production is influenced by the weather. Quinoa thrives in temperatures that are consistently less than 90 degrees Fahrenheit.
I'm sorry, but this isn't Basmati rice; it's far too glutinous and sticky, lacks the aroma of Basmati rice, and is far too short and thick to be Basmati rice. I bought it because my grocery store didn't have any other options, and I was disappointed. I could have used regular medium grain white rice instead.
It should be no problem for us to ship there. Please contact Amazon customer service. thanks
Selected User Reviews For Lundberg Organic Rice - Jasmine Brown, 32 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is extremely alarming. Not in my case. The only difference is that she eats rice while I avoid grains. Aside from that, we eat a very healthy diet and use a whole-house air purifier and a reverse osmosis water filter. br>br>After doing some research, we discovered that this company has been in trouble in the past due to high arsenic levels. I should've been more aware of the situation. How are they able to sell their rice at such a low cost? br>br>Wait and see! br>br> Arsenic is known as the "slow death" mineral because it destroys your organs gradually.
It had been the best long-term relationship I had ever had. We liked the grain brown we found, and the "Organic" label added to the appeal. Then there was the final 25-pound bag. We could almost serve them as a side dish because there were so many bugs in it. It is not an exaggeration to say that there were as many as 20 per pound. We washed it over and over, reading on the internet that even if we missed a few, it was still a good source of protein (wry grin). When a half-hour of washing failed to evict all of the little buggers from their edible home, I finally dumped out the rest. The bugs, as well as the dubious ethics of referring to non-existent people as "non-existent," "Eco-" is an organically grown product. Lundberg's leadership, according to "Farm," has gone off the rails. We'll search for a firm that follows through on its promises.
It's as good as or better than Lotus Foods forbidden rice. It's grown in the United States, is organic, and contains a lot of anthocyanins (the antioxidant found in black rice, blueberries, and other fruits and vegetables). The flavor is comparable to, if not superior to, Lotus Foods' "Forbidden Rice," and it is grown in California rather than China. The actual rice grains are slightly less black than Lotus Foods rice, indicating a slightly lower anthocyanin content, but the difference isn't significant, so I prefer this product overall. br>br>The water I drink on a regular basis is: The rice ratio isn't quite as stated on the package. I use a two-to-one ratio in my writing. I use the "brown rice" setting on my rice cooker, which means 2 cups water per 1 cup dry black rice. This results in a very nice texture and flavor, in my opinion. If you follow the bag instructions to the letter, the rice will be too firm and dry. It is best to stick to a one-to-one ratio.
It isn't from California, but from another country. Not at all what I expected. It is from the southern United States, rather than California. Consumer Reports advises eating brown rice only from California, India, and Pakistan because these regions produce rice with lower levels of the dangerous arsenic form.
It has no flavor. Stick with Lundberg's organic short grain brown rice. We've been eating Lundberg's organic short grain brown rice for the last half-century, since I was a graduate student in architecture at UC Berkeley, and the price was around $20 for 20 pounds until a few years ago. br>br>Then came the California drought, which caused prices to triple, then drop to double at around 24. twelve pounds for a dollar w/ this covid- br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br We ordered this Lundberg eco-friendly short grain brown rice after the price of organic short grain brown rice skyrocketed to astronomical levels. short grain brown rice from a farm. br>br>not good. eco- The farm was a letdown. The kernal itself isn't like the moist, plush kernal of organic brown rice; it's dry and crusty, lacking the luxuriousness of organic short grain brown rice flavor. br>br>it was a letdown. I spent a lot of money on this bag, and it's getting more expensive by the day. br>br>Suggest spending a few extra dollars on Lundberg's coveted organic short rain brown rice. There's a huge difference between the two. Instead, we'd like to return this bag of inedibles. This is how the dregs are farmed in an environmentally friendly manner.
When it arrived, the product had been out of date for months. This should not have happened, despite the fact that the rice is still edible.
I've been buying this product without issue for many years and have been very satisfied with it. br>br>In early December 2017, we got a bag that smelled 'off' for the first time ever. Wet, possibly rotten burlap comes to mind. I rinsed the rice several times but it still smelled. The rice had a drier, crumblier texture when cooked. There were no bugs in the bag, which I thoroughly examined. However, some grains were partially yellow and brown in color. br>br>The customer service has been outstanding. br>I continue to endorse this product because of the following reasons:
1. It has, for the most part, been consistently good for a long time.
2. Bulk purchases are both cost-effective and environmentally friendly.
3. The bag is made of paper rather than plastic.
Earthy, nutty, complex, and almost overpowering, the wild rice blend has a lot of flavor. Because the rice has such a strong full-flavored flavor, I prefer it with salads or mild-flavored proteins (chicken, white fish). a full-bodied scent br>br>The bag contains a fairly balanced mix of brown, red, black, and wild rice, with the long grain brown rice accounting for the majority of the volume. br>The wild rice will 'pop,' but the rice blend will retain a chewy firm texture once cooked. It has a nice bite to it, which I like. It's a rice that tastes great hot or cold. I prefer to cook the rice for 40 minutes rather than 45 minutes (as directed). br>br>The bag can be re-used. velcro press that closes Okay, but I still prefer to transfer the rice to a sealed container. br>I also appreciate the brand's collaboration with Terracycle, which allows me to recycle all of my empty bags.
