Forbidden Rice®
The Emperor's Exclusive Grain, Imported from China (hmmm...maybe something good from China ???)

For increased health and longevity. Legend tells us that this ancient grain was once eaten exclusively by the Emperors of China. Our most popular rice is fabled to enrich health and ensure longevity. This medium-size heirloom rice is treasured for its delicious roasted nutty taste, soft texture and beautiful deep purple color. Extremely high in a class of flavonoid antioxidants called anthocyanins, Forbidden Rice® is also rich in iron and, according to Chinese herbal medicine, considered to be a blood tonifier. A striking presence on any plate, this once forbidden indulgence is now a wholesome everyday rice. It pairs beautifully with all cuisines – use it steamed plain, in a pilaf, stir-fry, salad or pudding.

As many antioxidants as blueberries? A new study shows that a spoonful of black rice bran or 10 spoonfuls of cooked black rice contains the same amount of antioxidants as a spoonful of fresh blueberries.

This rice provides the richest nutritional value, providing a higher level of vitamins, minerals and fiber of any bran rice, as well as a comprehensive range of amino acids, proteins, vegetable fats and essential trace elements needed by the body.

  If I were an emperor, all I would eat would be caviar and lobster, and not rice.

  Anyway, there is also a very delicate white tea that is made only from the flowering buds, which occurs only once per year, of very young tea trees which is called the emperor tea. Apparently, only the emperor could drink it and the penalty for those who drank it was death. Not even the emperor's family could drink this tea.

  Personally, I love rice and it is my prefered source of complex carbs. I would eat only fruit for easy energy, but I have found that too much fruit makes me hypoclycemic. A stable blood sugar level is the best, methinks.
