I'd be eager to see the nutritional analysis of some fine Lundberg, or
anything comparable. Then we can see if healthfulness of brown rice is
just pure myth. Any numbers, anyone?

From the Lundberg website:

Long Grain Brown Rice, 1/2 cup (98g) serving

Calories: 340
From fat: 28
Total Fat: 3 g (6% daily value)
Saturated: 0 g
Trans fat: 0 g
Cholesterol: 0 mg
Sodium: 0 mg
Total Carbs: 76 g (26% daily value)
Dietary Fiber: 6 g (26% daily value)
Sugars: 0 g
Protein: 8 g
Vitamin A: 0%
Vitamin C: 0%
Calcium: 0%
Iron: 4% daily value.

Here's a website that compares different types of rice. The Lundberg facts
seem to be comparable to the brown rice listed.

White rice isn't bad for you, brown rice simply has more of what's good for
you.
