User questions & answers

Question:	Why did this product cost $5.04 in March and now it’s
Answer:	I can only say that price changes from time to time and from seller to seller. I as a seller pays almost $5.04 in cost, shipping fees and amazon fees. I can't really answer your question. Sorry.
Question:	Is it slightly stickly enough to make sushi or rice balls
Answer:	I never made sushi but you can cook it longer until just before it starts to break apart, so I guess so. It tends to be more firm than white rice but once you learn how to make it for what you need its fine. Wont buy white rice again
Question:	Is this just plain brown rice? Thank You
Answer:	Yes, its as advertised. That said I'm not a brown rice connoisseur but I love the rice and no complaints.
Question:	This didnt come out looking like normal rice when I cooked on brown rice setting in cooker... closer to puffed wheat. Why
Answer:	Should come out like regular white rice but only that it's slightly browner. When you make brown rice, you should be using 1 cup rice to 1-1/2 cups water with the rice cooker on brown rice setting. I do that with 1/2 brown rice & 1/2 quinoa, too. Good luck...!!!

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this rice organic
Answer:	No. But it is short grain (not long) brown rice and has a delicious almost nutty flavor.
Question:	What is the shelf life of this rice
Answer:	If you have a problem with bugs in your rice, put it in the freezer for 24 hours then store in in an air tight container. Usually the problem is meal moths. I had a lot of trouble with them but I started using moth traps and got rid of some grain products that had been on the shelf too long. It took me about a year with the traps but I no longer have moths. I also freeze most of my grains and dry beans for 24 hours before putting them on the shelf.
Question:	Why does the brown version cost almost twice as much as the white? White rice is brown rice that has been processed so white should cost more
Answer:	Brown rice is apparently healthier than white rice. And for some reason I've found that anything that's healthy and good for you are not wallet friendly. 
Question:	What about the high arsenic levels found in U.S. rice? What is it in this Nishiki Premium Brown Rice
Answer:	I found this article that says rice grown in California has less arsenic than rice grown in the the southern US States. Nishiki is grown in California. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1892142/

Question:	what setting do you use on your rice cooker for this? I have a "fuzzy logic" rice cooker
Answer:	Mr. Skinner, I am an Amazon customer who grew up on Skinner's. I have bought this product from Amazon. It is still far and away the most delicious raisin bran available. I don't know about the change in formulation. It still tastes toasted which I love.
Question:	Is this the same as purple rice
Answer:	Not all the time. My last delivery was not. I have been buying Uncle Sam Cereal online for at least 2 years. I have never had an issue with bugs or water damage. However, living in AZ water damage would not be a concern.
Question:	Is this purple rice
Answer:	Uncle Sam does about as well as any other bran cereal in terms of staying crispy in milk. It doesn't stay as crispy as, say, Cheerios, but it does better than some cereals I have eaten.
Question:	where grown
Answer:	YES, inside each of the individual boxes is a sealed plastic bag for the cereal. Impossible for water or bugs to affect.

User questions & answers

Question:	If you use 1 cup rice in 2.25 cups water, how much cooked rice is produced
Answer:	We should ship there no problem. Please give Amazon customer service a call. thanks
Question:	Does it come in a cloth bag of some type
Answer:	I'm sorry, but this stuff is absolutely not Basmati rice. It's far too glutinous and sticky, it barely has the smell that Basmati rice has, and it's way too short and thick to be Basmati rice. I bought this stuff when my grocery store didn't have anything else and I was pretty dissapointed. I might have well just used regular medium grain white rice.
Question:	Does it have the bran removed
Answer:	If it is indeed "American Grown" it must be in southern CO. But production is limited there. 95% of the world's production comes from the Andes (Peru and Bolivia). Currently, the biggest barrier to U.S. quinoa production is climate. Quinoa optimally grows where temperatures are consistently below 90 degrees Fahrenheit
Question:	Is your rice tested for Arsenic levels
Answer:	I have tested rice from all over the world. Many years ago I found that because of the profile of heavy metals found everywhere, it was surprising that California has the lowest in the world. Lundberg is an awesome CA rice grower. 1/10 of metals compared to Chinese rice-fact.

Long Grain Brown Rice

Not only is Augason Farms Long Grain Brown Rice packed with nutrients, it’s a delicious addition to any meal. Use it in salads, casseroles, or as a nutritious side dish. Whether you’re trying out a fried rice recipe, making stir-fry, Spanish rice, or black beans, brown rice is a versatile, healthy staple and the perfect way to add nutrition and substance to your meals today or years down the road.

A Go-To Meal Prep Staple

Would you believe that 4.19 million metric tons of rice were consumed in the United States in 2016/2017? It’s likely your family contributed to that number. Buying brown rice in airtight, waterproof, and bug and rodent proof pails ensures that the brown rice you need will stay fresh for up to 7 years*. And when opened, the rice will stay fresh for up to an entire year. Whether you use it for everyday meal prep or as part of your emergency food supply, a bulk pail of brown rice is worth its weight in delicious and hearty meals.

*Shelf life of brown rice is shorter than white rice due to its high oil content.

Save Money, Reduce Waste

Buying shelf stable food in bulk offers many benefits, starting with cost savings and waste reduction. It’s a given that purchasing food in large volumes presents substantial savings. What’s different with shelf stable bulk food is that it won’t spoil or go stale like its fresh, store-bought counterpart. It’s easy to see why Augason Farms shelf stable bulk food will save your family money and reduce the waste of spoiled foods.

Large Families and Groups

Bulk, shelf-stable food is an economical way to prepare meals for large families, church groups, schools and restaurants. The airtight pail, when unopened, keeps food fresh for up to 30 years. Once opened, food will last up to a full year. That’s plenty of time to prepare many high-quality and great tasting meals for any type of gathering. In the event of an emergency, bulk foods such as rice and beans can be added to soups, casseroles and breakfast dishes to extend the number of meals that are needed to help nourish neighbors or community members who may be suffering.

Keep Your Empty Pails

Once you’ve consumed the food, an empty pail can be used in dozens of ways, here are just a few: collect rain water, keep papers and valuables dry, trash can, livestock feeder, wash dishes, coal/charcoal storage, carry wood for fires, store kindling, gather fruits and nuts, flotation device, game feeder, step stool, grow potatoes, store tools, mix concrete, helmet, shovel and more.
