Common questions

Is Minute Rice Long Grain White healthy?

Minute Rice Long Grain White scores 0/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in, plus lab results from its product family, Minute Instant Long Grain White Rice. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Minute Rice Long Grain White lists 1 ingredient, starting with Enriched Precooked Long Grain Rice. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.
