I know that brown rice is healthier for you. How ever I dont like it. I prefer white rice as well. My husband prefer's brown rice so on occassion I will give in and we will have that instead of white rice.

i have never tried brown rice yet. but i have a friend and her mom does uses brown rice. and she said they have to soak ot before cooking it. i go for white rice. or sometimes my wife cook it in another way then it turns brown har har har. but i can not day the comparison for i havent tasted brown rice before.

I love white rice than brown rice. I think brown rice boil a lot longer than white rice. The texture of the brown rice is somewhat rougher unlike white rice, they're pretty smooth. The brown rice though, equally smells good like white rice. I heard brown rice costs more but they're healthy.

I do prefer white rice but I use brown. It's wholegrain, it's good for you, but I don't really like the taste or texture as much as white. It is a great substitute for half the hamburger in tacos though. It is quite hearty and fills in nicely. I think that the key with brown rice is to cook it just a bit longer than you're supposed to. I just use Minute Rice and I've found it to be a little on the tough side otherwise.

hi abbeyB, my dear freind, i just love rice like anything. i can have it all the time./ i can have a start up of my day with it and the end also with rice. i love having white rice , i think it is because i am eating it since childhood. i dont like brown at all. i think i donno the correct way to cook them, but i have tried to cook them sometimes, but never liked them. i love white. i know eating brown rice is more healthy but i love to eat white rice.
