	Lundberg Organic Short Grain Brown Rice Code: lund01 Price: $19.00 Quantity in Basket: none
Lundberg's Organic Short Grain Brown Rice Short grain brown rice is one of the most full-flavored rices. After cooking, the grains are soft and cling together. Because of these properties, short grain brown rice is especially suitable in recipes where a creamy texture is desired, such as puddings, rice balls, croquettes, paella, amd risotto. "Purity You Can Taste" Premium Short Grain Rice Whole Grain Gluten Free USDA Organic kosher vegan "Lundberg Family Farms has been growing healthy, high quality, great tasting rice in Northern California since 1937. Our rice is grown using organic farming methods from prior generations and innovations from today. Our highest priorities include improving the soil while protecting the air, water, and wildlife. Rice straw is returned to the soil after harvest (instead of burning) to enrich the soil and protect the air and the environment. We use only approved organic inputs to grow organic rice. Our crop rotation practices include utilizing nitrogen-fixing crops for soil enrichment. Lundberg Family Farms does not grow genetically engineered rice varieties. The fields provide valuable habitat for a variety of animals. Migrating waterfowl inhabit flooded fields during the winter - they provide natural fertilizer and aid straw decomposition. We practice water-conserving irrigation. We purchase green power for our handling and processing facilities. We care for our rice from planting to packaging to ensure you always receive the highest quality rice. We hope you enjoy all of our rice products.         Eldon, Wendell, Harlan and Homer Lundberg." The Lundberg brothers are the organic rice pioneers in America. All their rice is hulled on their farm using a high-tech Japanese rubber rolling huller which does not scratch the grain. The Lundberg Farm is located in Butte County, California, which is known throughout the world as a premier rice growing area. 12 lbs (5.4kg) bag Nutrition Facts Serving Size ¼ cup (51g) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Amount Per Serving -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Calories 170 Calories from fat 14 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- % Daily Value* -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Fat 1.5g 2% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sodium 0mg 0% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Carbohydrate 40g 13% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dietary Fiber 3g 11% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Protein 3g -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *Percent Daily Value is based on a 2,000 calorie diet.
