Chela:

Ruth posted a thread in this section back in 2004 with the revised food list for phase2 - this is what it says about rice

Rice - 1/2 cup cooked
- basmati
- brown
- converted or parboiled
- wild

I think the brand I buy is river??? anyway it is a brown box and the only ing. is brown rice (nothing else).

Hope that this helped

Chela, stop fretting about the carb count. Just be sure to choose foods that are on the approved list. This plan is about GOOD carbs. Of course, if you eat too many, you won't lose but that's true of any healthy food!
