Talk:Forbidden rice

Glutinous?
This is just black glutinous rice, correct? Badagnani 08:04, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
 * No, Forbidden rice is not glutinous. There is more than one type of black rice.--Chef Christopher Allen Tanner, CCC 20:39, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

I have difficulty Finding this rice in North America, even shopping Asian grocery stores. I appreciate this article for Naming the rice I found once by accident, and not again since.

It would be interesting to know what the blue chemicals given off in the cooking consist of.--166.84.254.33 (talk) 18:06, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

An established synonym, not Lotus Foods' brand name
Contrary to notes on some edits, "Forbidden rice" is a long-established synonym for black rice, which goes back long before Lotus Foods existed: run a Google Scholar search.Mikalra (talk) 23:31, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
