Rice Xpress (like Uncle Ben's )


Guest nini

Recommended Posts

I just found three flavors of Lundberg Farms Rice Xpress at my local co-op yesterday and these flavors were labeled gluten free! They are just like the Uncle Ben's quick rice product that is being advertised on tv with the little girl heating up the packet in the microwave for a minute and then it's done... (only the Uncle Ben's version contains wheat starch...)

the three flavors are

classic beef

chicken herb

sante fe grill

I bought the classic beef, heated it up in the microwave at work for a minute and dumped it on a plate... I did end up heating it another 30 seconds because our microwave at work kinda sux... but all in all, for a quick easy side dish it was pretty darn good.

Good to know! Were they in a natural/health food section or with the regular stuff?

any chance they're dairy free as well?

they would be in the natural foods section. Any store that carries Lundberg rice products "should" be able to get these in.

I don't know if they are dairy free or not... I'll see if I can find out.

the sesame teriyaki flavor is NOT gluten free

I copied this from their website. They have a whole section dedicated to explaining celiac disease. That's unusual.

We have only a few products in our entire line of 75+ products that are not gluten free, or may have ingredients that could be a problem for the very sensitive:

Organic Multigrain Rice Cakes (discontinued)

Exotic Wild n Mushroom Quick Brown Pilaf (discontinued)

Italian Herb Risotto

Our other products, to the best of our knowledge based upon the most current research, are gluten-free and safe for those sensitive to the gliadin protein found in gluten.

bomb! thanks for sharing ! can't wait to try those. i've hated how uncle ben has to add good ol' hydrogenated oil to his quick cook rice. what's up with that?

and if anyone has a trader joes near them, they have their own brand of the quick rice too.

      Other symptoms that Celiac Disease can cause but resemble other diseases so the cause may be misdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
