I sincerely hope not! We ate that for dinner last night. :)

Seriously I just assumed this was code for the "rice" that mice leave behind when they get into the rice. I'd have freaked out to open a bag and find nothing but the black ones. But no, I've never tried it.

My favorite rice - hands down, no competition - is red cargo rice. It generally come from Thailand. Best rice ever.

Is that the same as wild rice?

No, it's different. It's primarily eaten in Asia. It's yummy, though. :P

Yes. I eat at a Thai Restraunt that serves it as a dessert with coconut milk in it. Fantastic.

Interesting! I've never even heard of it. Have you ever tried it yourself? Was it tasty?

We had it for dinner tonight with our honey garlic chicken. It is delicious!! It has a kind of nutty flavor. We all like it. :)

I like to buy it at Trader Joes, but Kroger carries a good brand and even Walmart has it.

What the #%*?! Some person with a degree has the audacity to say that TEN spoonfuls of rice is better than ONE spoonful of blueberries because of the sugar?! Blueberries have less sugar, more fiber, and a lower glycemic index than the rice.

Oh, the stupidity.

This is not to say that imperial rice isn't good. On a scale of rice that I like to rice that I don't, it's about in the middle.

But the point is ultimately to eat more purple food. Eat your rainbows, peoples!!
