The catch

Despite the whole grain label it delivers only 2g of fiber per quarter cup dry, less than many shoppers assume brown rice provides. (source)

The honest take

This is about as clean as a pantry staple gets. The ingredient list is a single line, organic California brown basmati rice, with 0mg sodium, 0g added sugar, and no seed oils or additives of any kind. A quarter cup dry gives you 160 calories, 33g carbs, 4g protein, and just 2g of fiber, which is the honest surprise here since people expect brown rice to be a fiber powerhouse and it really is only modest. If you want a whole grain base you can trust and cook however you like, it earns a spot in the cabinet.
