Many of you are shocked when I recommend Uncle Ben's Original Converted Rice because you think it is just white rice. Let's clarify that it is not your run-of-the-mill white rice.
Converted rice, invented by Uncle Ben's, is unhulled rice that's been soaked in hot water, steamed, and dried. The husks are then removed and the rice is milled. From this process, the grains retain 80% of their vitamins, but are stripped of most of their starch, making the rice less sticky and lowers the glycemic load.
