Don't be too suprised if the taste of brown doesnt appeal. Some love
it (I like it for a variation) but some dislike it (Don and Charlotte).
It's specifically the nutty flavor they feel off putting in a rice.

The texture of brown didnt appeal to me that much but then I am so used
to medium grain sticky, that singlit grain types do not appeal to me.
