Is brown rice added? Where is the product processed? Not China or Taiwan, I hope.

Labeling makes it look like it was packaged in New York. Not clear labeling of ingredients except "instant green tea". In other words no clear info on when, where, how of if anything else added in processing. It is very strong. I only really tried it once. Then I sort of got drawn off toward Macha Green tea raw with lemon and lime.

it's a food product made in China. That's probably your answer right there. Who knows what's really in it.

It does not. Cheryl's reply shows the complete list of ingredients: "Enzymatically processed rice protein from certified organic, whole grain, sprouted brown rice." If you would like to confirm or check the nutritional value breakdown, you can zoom in on the label in the product description page. I've been pleased with this product, as it has no added sweeteners/carbs/"syrup solids"/etc. - it's strictly brown rice protein.

Nothing listed and it is certified organic--simply brown rice and water. I've never opened a spoiled one and it is quite shelf-stable even in Texas' summer heat.

Our organic brown rice is grown in the US and is supplied to us by Lone Pine Enterprises, LLC out of Carlisle, Arkansas. Let us know if we can assist you further.

Some ingredients come from China, although the company claims it came from very clean source. I guess it has to do with how much you trust China and Megafood.

I am sorry. Any indication that it was made elsewhere is long gone. It could be both. There might be an initial product from china then is refin ed here. Calling the company may be your best bet.

Yes. Ingredients, from package: "Enzymatically processed rice protein from certified organic, whole grain, sprouted brown rice". I don't know why the information on Amazon doesn't mention it's brown rice - probably an oversight (or intentional omissions due to thinking that consumers wouldn't be interested) from whoever manages the sales process.

Kinda crazy reading ntooman's comment -- s/he cares more about the price than what kind of impurities going into his/her food. Never cook with anything made in China... what is wrong with you people.

It is made in Taiwan, not mainland China. It is an excellent well made rice cooker and I would recommend highly.

If you Google the rice you will find tgat it us grown in California. This company has been in business over 3 decades. Again reading about the company will tell you more information. We happened on it one day and tried it. I do not like rice but love this as part of a meal. I see that buying the one grown in China could contain arsenic in it, but Lundberg does not. I know nothing about Lotus brand because I have never purchased it, only Lundberg.

The product does say it is made in a city in Japan. It has been doing exceptionally well, not as good and my 10 years old Tiger rice maker. Buyers beware, most domestic and international products parts are made elsewhere, it may be assembled in Japan and then just label slapped.

This rice is very similar to parboiled rice where water is discarded during the boiling process of rice. Brown rice isn't the same thing from them.
