    This is great! One of the most nutritious foods in the world! Black rice is one of my favorites also. I also cooked some several recipes for this rice and my family loved it! I saw some several recipes here http://www.blackrice.com/recipes . maybe it will serve helpful if you need some recipes.

    I really like to try new things. I like this black rice even better than brown or any other. The hard part is getting others to try it. I take it to church suppers occasionally. The reaction is "what's that" and "it looks like a pile of ants" But I love that's what matters. I tell 'em don't knock it till you try it.

    This is the best rice I've ever had. Hands down. The flavor is amazing. You should go buy some right now.

    I love the rice. But should I have any concerns with the seed originating in Japan?????  Also, my son has kidney disease so I have to watch his potassium intake. Could you please give me the facts?   Thanks

    This is the best rice ever and SO healthy!  No more white rice for this family.

    This rice after cooked needs nothing to spice it up or mix it with.  It also adds to the color on the plate.  It smells great while cooking, or reheating.  Easily the best rice mix I have ever tasted.

    5 stars! This Lundberg Japonica is absolutely delicious! I cooked it by baking it in the oven in a Le Creuset  French oven with heavy lid. Marvelous!

    I bought this rice by mistake, when I meant to buy wild rice for a recipe. Boy, am I happy that I bought the wrong rice! This black japonica rice is delicious, and so much tastier than "normal" brown rice! Even my picky husband approved.
