This whole brown vs. white rice thing has been bothering me. I recall
researching the topic in the past, and that's probably when I stopped
fretting about eating white rice. Look at the nutritional breakdown for
100g of long grain below, courtesy of http://www.nutritionanalyser.com
-- is brown rice really that dominant? Any of you brown rice eaters
have any additional information that this comparison overlooks? Joe?


White Brown
-------------------------
[...other nutrients...]
Folate - Total (mcg)58.00 4.00
Food - Folate (mcg) 3.00 4.00
Folate - DFE (mcg) 97.00 4.00

Looks as if the white stuff in this comparison was doped with folate,
which raises questions about the other nutrients as well.
