I have mixed feelings about this. I like that it combines multiple types of grains resulting in a unique taste/texture, but some of the pieces were almost crunchy and too hard for my taste. I would eat it again at a friend’s house, but I wouldn’t buy it again.

Are you kidding me? This has 4 grams of fiber and 200 calories a cup! Of course, it’s bland. You’re supposed to add yummy flavors to it like Deborah! This stuff is a great substitute for pasta – I put meat sauce on top of it and make veggie stir fry with it. I also just cook it and add arugula, avocado, olive oil, salt pepper and lemon juice to it – yum!!!!

As a borderline diabetic, this is a High Carb cheat for me. Though it’s also high in fiber. That said, I butter it up then serve salmon over it, add a side salad and it’s a great meal. 10/10 will purchase again

Maybe I’m doing something wrong. Put in microwave for 3 mins and took it out of bag and it was sticking together and tasted horrible. I love Trader Joe’s frozen entrees but this was all gummy and sticky and not fluffy as rice should be

I love this rice. It does have a bite to it though. As for people saying that it is bland….ummm, most rice to me is bland, it’s what you add to it that makes it yummy. It’s more filling to me than regular rice as well.

Well, Well, Well…Awesome and Amazing all the same time. I always purchased the white jasmine rice from Trador Joe’s. I recently went and saw this Rice Medley with organic brown rice, red rice and black barley and decided to try it. I’m diabetic and yes rice is generally high on the glycemic index scale. But, this Medley is whole grain rice with 5 protein per serving and 4 fiber. I cook in microwave on 3.5 minutes and comes out perfect..not bland at all. With rice you must season to taste and for me adding a little real butter not the fake margarine. Several times a week this Medley Whole Grain Rice is my go to for easy meals with the family. I prepare this rice with chopped mushrooms, onions, tomatoes, string beans or broccoli and added protein will be either chicken or fish. Oh my so yummy, my family loves it and highly recommend.
