QUOTE:
Is there any brand of brown rice that is good? I just don't seem to
like the taste or texture of it so i dont eat it, i prefer jasmine rice, is
that okay?
I just use Uncle Ben's, brown rice is pretty much brown rice no matter the brand. Its usually pretty bland but some kinds I've gotten have kind of a nutty flavour, I usually cook mine in chicken or beef broth so thats what it tastes like. Jasmine rice comes in a brown & a white but I'm guessing you mean the longer grain white variety, nutritionally there's not a huge difference
1 cup Brown medium grain (like Uncle Ben's): 218 calories, 2 grams of fat, 46 grams of carbs, 4 grams fiber & 5 grams of protein
1 cup White long grain (basically what jasmine rice is): 205 calories, >1 gram fat, 45 grams carbs, 1 gram of fiber and 4 grams protein
so the jasmine will have a little less of everything (except irong, 11% vs 6% in the brown)
