best rice in the world if you ask me
i am not even a "rice person" per say. i mostly avoid unnecessary carbs, and think of rice as spiking my glycemic index. but i looove this taco salad at this local vegan restaurant and i am always like "wtf is this chewy delicious azz rice they are using? is this quinoa? wtf is this??" i didnt realize i could order and make it at home. today i used it as a base to my own delicious (very non-vegan) grilled chicken thigh salad and OMG IS JUST SOAKS UP ALL THE SAUCES AND IS HEARTY CHEWY DELICIOUSNESS. also, dont throw out the water. it's dark, syrupy, and rich with nutrients that should be used to condition your hair. sounds crazy but it's not crazy, it's hair food. mix it with some deep conditioner and thank me later. see how i'm trying to upgrade your life??

Delicious.
I had never heard of Black ( Forbidden ) Rice before, so began investigating it. It is, apparently, almost a super food with lots of healthy and beneficial enzymes in it. I decided to try it and found that health benefits aside, this rice is delicious. I normally eat brown rice, which is better for you than regular white rice, but this has an entirely different, unique taste that I love. I truly recommend to rice lovers, give it a try, you will like it, and it's really healthy for you. Bon appetit.

A bit pricey but good when you don't have time for the grocery store
This black rice is definitely pricier than the grocery store ones. Especially the Asian grocery stores. However, if there isn't one around you or you don't have time for a grocery store run, this is definitely a good one to turn to. We like the flavor and healthiness, but you definitely need to cook them for a longer period of time and soak them beforehand. We usually mix this with white rice so it's not as hard to digest.

Just ok
Doesnโt taste that great in my opinion. Tastes like wild rice. But if you like that maybe you will like this rice.

Moving rice!
Bought this rice six months ago, initially it was good quality and delicious. Just noticed even in the bag in a vacuum sealed container that the rice was moving. Little black bugs in the rice! Rice weevils. Not buying again

Thank You -> very good value
Stocking my shelves. Excellent value. Price/qty/type. For all of you still stove top cooking rice.... -> get a,rice cooker. The small ones are 10.00. You will thank me for it. I gave mine to my mom .... Hoping she'd try it (75 yo -> old school) -> she was blown away. "Where has this gadget been all my life? * i dont have to stand and stir.... And it ALWAYS comes out correctly... ALwAYS, no more gooie, sticky weird rice." And its like done in no time. (I lost my rice cooker to my mother) please get one for cooking odd rice, darker rice, it gives you water ratios and etc when cooking other variety in the rice cooker book -> race/water table
